Robert Plant & Alison Krauss - “Sister Rosetta Goes Before Us“
The musical collaboration of the decade, Raising Sand is the sound of two iconic figures stepping out of their respective comfort zones and letting their instincts lead them across a brave new sonic landscape. Despite hailing from distinctly different backgrounds, Alison Krauss and Robert Plant share a maverick spirit and willingness to extend the boundaries of their respective genres. This spirit, expertly honed by producer T Bone Burnett, has resulted in an album pitched three steps beyond some cosmic collision of early urban blues, spacious West Texas country, and the untapped potential of the folk-rock revolution.
Supported by the unparalleled musicianship of Marc Ribot, Dennis Crouch, Mike Seeger, Jay Bellerose, Norman Blake, Greg Leisz, Patrick Warren, and Riley Baugus, Plant and Krauss -- as both solo and harmony vocalists -- tackle an intriguing selection of songs from such tunesmiths as Tom Waits, Gene Clark, Sam Phillips, Townes Van Zandt, The Everly Brothers, and Mel Tillis. Raising Sand finds Robert Plant and Alison Krauss exploring popular music’s elemental roots while still sounding effortlessly, breathtakingly contemporary.
Raising Sand was the 2009 Grammy Award winner for Album of the Year, Best Contemporary Folk/Americana Album, Record of the Year (for Raising Sand’s “Please Read the Letter,“ a tune originally recorded for Page-Plant’s Walking Into Clarksdale), Best Country Collaboration With Vocals (“Killing the Blues“) and Best Pop Collaboration With Vocals (“Rich Woman“).
