"Only On The Web:" Katie Couric speaks with notorious British Led Zeppelin rocker Robert Plant and American blue grass singer Alison Kraus about their unlikely, and successful, musical collaboration.
Robert is such a nice guy! None of the arrogance that one might expect from someone with has background. The album is a gem. Songs that I didn't like at first, grew on me later. Great guitar and drum work indeed. And Alison, congrats on Grammy #27.
I agree. Nice guy. Real regular. Not a self-absorbed superstar. Just a singer in a band. Glad to see him doing this, and all the interesting music he's done over the years. Always wish him well.
I have been playing this album for couple of years! Personally l think its a Fantastic Album! They are fantastic together, WITH THE INCREDIBLE T.BONE AND MUSICIANS ! CERTAINLY BROUGHT THE VERY BEST OUT OF THEM ALL.A BRILLIANT ALBUM!
These 2 have been my favorite singers for years, and I was blown away when they came together, because I always thought they were from two completely different worlds and wouldn't even meet! They are AMAZING!👏👏👏👏
Robert Plant je světová špička a přesto zůstal stát nohama na zemi a z jeho ,tvorby je nadale citit poctivá práce a pokora..jako pár jsou obrovský parťáci,. vyzařují skvělou energii..
I am in LOVE. I had no idea Alison Krauss was so magnetic. I knew she was beautiful, but WOW. If I only had looks, talent and money...............and was single. ;) lol.
If you happened to see them on tour, Alison introduced the band, including her "all-time favorite guitarist", her husband. Being close and having a friendship doesn't mean there is an affair going on. Though they may look and act like lovers, I think its more to do with the thrill of making something new and magical.
@@KeeKo432 he's many steps ahead of her. She'll never throw one at him out of left field, he'd catch it before she even threw it. Very quick on the uptake..me thinks😉
@semiLivedj you really don't understand what is going on before you , i believe. I see that she has brought tremendous calm to a man who seems to find himself again, musically speaking, after having been with her and T Bone too i should mention.
@lanny21ful ....... What a wonderful thing you have said. :) You have proved that there truly is someone for everyone. I think she is unbelievably beautiful. Isn't it amazing that we each see a different woman? :)
Think what you will about Katie… the kid has some smarts. She knows the “lame” questions are the opportunity for Robert or Allison to stand in contrast to the quality of the question. Katie’s job is to make them look good. I enjoy Katie’s innocent act. To start with, she opens with what are the differences between Robert and Allison. She makes the contrast greatest by starting with age. She makes the age difference [and all the other stuff] greatest by starting with 1971.
Does Katie even know who T-Bone Burnett is? She never uses his last name. "What is the vibe from the audience when you perform together?" So daft that Katie.
I have seen almost all Robert Plant interviews, even a very weird ones. This is by far the worst. I just don´t understand Couric's point. It is difficult to believe that CBS did not have a more competent anchor to carry out this interview. What a waste!
Robert is no dummy, but his innocent act, saying I don’t know, keeps the interview from being a boring ping pong conversation. Shy little Allison may be smarter that both of them. When Katie left the OTHER place, she was burnt out, they raped the golden girl and it showed. I love to be intertained by Katie being little ol miss down to earth and her insightful conversations. I heard exactly what I wanted to hear about the pair singing together.
I think Krauss has been training with some kind of speech coach. When she first started winning awards, fans were shocked to hear that the same woman who sounds like an angel when she sings talks like a cross between Kermit the Frog and Dudley Doo-Right. When I heard her speak on the Grammies last night, I was quite suprised. She seems like she's trying very hard to make her voice sound more feminine when she talks.
i think it's even worse . the problem was'nt about dating but about working together with a different background different tastes and very different age. it's robert who jokes about the age just to make some wit. like he says in music art or taste the word unlike/u nlikly doesn't exist cause art is something new and often strange. this katie writes personally the question? cause they re not goog lol !
@dandres73 haha yes she does. I think she either slept with Plant or he hit on her and now she's like ewwwwww! sorry she did it or grossed out because he hit on her. hahaha!
Alisson No Es Del Rock. El rock es de los años 60-70. Lo otro es muy malo No sirve el supuesto rock 80 ochentero Es de lo peor Es inaudible a quien le guste esque no oyó a Grupos de Rock Progresivo No nacieron con Idea musical Y jamás tendrán Audición Fina
Weak? You are too polite. A huge yawn here watching this interview. Katie is such a lazy media interviewer now days. This could have been an opportunity to ask several new questions for these two to answer. I believe doing the work to get an interesting sit down with two greats was beyond her interviewing capabilities.
