Robert Plant Breathes New Life Into Led Zeppelin Classic: Listen

placeholder image

Robert Plant and Alison Krauss have been performing "When The Levee Breaks" together for years, and to celebrate their 2024 tour, which kicked off this week, the duo released a recorded version of the song. The Memphis Minnie and Kansas Joe McCoy original was famously covered by Led Zeppelin in 1971, and the new rendition breathes new life into the track once again—transforming it into an Americana ballad with bold harmonies and am epic fiddle part.

The current tour is in support of Plant and Krauss' collaborative 2021 covers album Raise the Roof. Plant's last solo album was 2017's Carry Fire. Listen to "When The Levee Breaks" and check out a full list of tour dates below.
