Sister Rosetta And The Ghost Of Tom Waits (Robert Plant and Alison Kraus)

in Uncategorized


Alison Kraus has the purest voice I’ve heard. This collaboration is genius. This song could be on The Black Rider (Tom Waits). Kudos to Robert Plant for embracing the joyous constraints of discipline required by bluegrass. This album is not full of effects and overdubs. Alison and Robert shared one mic, so …. you had to bring it. This song is beautiful, and reflects a sycretism of Alison’s purity (of music) and Robert’s breadth of experience. It’s 70/30 Alison/Robert and I think that’s wonderful. Enjoy.
