I was there when this was done. The was just 80 to 100 strong and it was brilliant. Robert gave up his time to raise money for charity. There are people on here who are moaning, one idiot calls him 'an old goat'. Another says he doesn't do much for charity. He raises thousands of GBP pounds every year. As a local, we see Robert out and about quite regularly. He and his family are lovely people. If you can't say anything good, then say nothing at all.
I was there when this was done. It was in the local Swan shopping center and started at 12pm. The crowd was just 80 to 100 strong. Robert was on top form, as was the band. The band were all serving police officers. Their band was called 'The Busking Bobbies'. Robert was there with his daughter, Carmen. He completed his few songs he then left and went to his local pub which I won't name on here.
Same here. Brilliant and on top form. The band did well and were talented in their own right. I remember the 'Busking Bobby's'' singer saying immediately after Robert left, "How do I follow that".
I’ve been told by someone who’s closely related to Plant that the extent of his charitable altruism reaches far more than what is revealed publicly. I have no way to confirm this but it doesn’t seem to be all that implausible.
Celebrities don’t all or alway talk about charitable work they do. I heard he donated Covid supplies, I don’t know what or how much, but if he could obtain it a decent amount. He a good man, & actually cares about people, more then many celebrities.
Those officers were probably so thrilled to be playing with the great Robert Plant, even if he didn't know a couple of the songs very well, he did his very best as always and he's just so charming and his harmonica, love that!
What a gem of a find - makes the Internet worthwhile 😂 I had to laugh when what looked like a nurse walked across the camera, oblivious to the fact that the ultimate "rock god" was feet away!! Wonderful!
I worked in Kidderminster Architect dept on a year out placement in the early 70's and always remember a chap coming back into the office casually saying ''i've just seen Robert plant driving through town''...i was so jealous. He's a west midlands man.
He's the very best he has a heart and soul most people don't have. Not just being a Rock star, I'm talking about the man off stage. You'll never find a real person like him. Peace and Love, always, Jan xx
Plant's fucking TOO COOL FOR SCHOOL. That would be like me, walking into the Roseville Galleria and seeing Robert Plant singing Spirit in the Sky! WTF?
Aww, so cute singing in his hometown. He got rid of that 80's hairdo and went back to his glorious curls. He sounds great, especially on Rock and Roll and All Along The Watchtower, Zep should've done that in one of their shows.
This is very cool,Plant can sing anything,and his harmonica playing is great,and never really gets credit for it. The band is pretty good for a bunch of cops
I love his harmonica playing, I wish he had done more of it during his Zeppelin days, there were so few songs he played it. I think it was great, he sang the songs they knew how to play, even though he didn’t really know the words. Made it more fun & exciting, love his humor too.
Anyone would have a good time w this beautiful man in there scene,& he has a wonderful sense of humour as well so intriguing .....😁😁😁😁🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
There's also another video of him on youtube singing Elvis songs at a wedding, then Dee Snider gets up and sings a couple of cover songs including a version of Led Zeppelin's 'Rock and Roll'.
He looked like a very sexy sharp dressed man, so YUMMY. Though I loved how sexy he looked at the (1973) Madison Square Gardens concerts too. Definitely a golden God.
Used to live in Kidderminster until I was 6 only thing I'm proud of about living in Kidderminster is Robert Plant. I left there in 82 I wish I was there that day.
Well done, Robert... for charity's sake first and foremost. I've heard he was "encouraged" to participate after a DUI incident the night prior? In any event, how wonderful he sounds in his natural voice, and not "pushing" it as he historically had to do on the "hits" of the Zeppelin catalogue. And he finally had the assertiveness and leverage to put "Rock and Roll" at the end of sets rather than the beginning. Not to mention, "Every Breath You Take" isn't in the best key for him, yet he still pulls it off well. His intro to "Rock and Roll" also sheds insights into how intimidating challenging vocals were for him in live performance.
@@jims.6393 I'm not sure, they did hold other type events there. Back then, the sound systems wasn't that great, I guess it helped as close as we were though.
There must be some kind of way outta here Said the joker to the thief There's too much confusion I can't get no relief Business men, they drink my wine Plowmen dig my earth None will level on the line Nobody offered his word Hey, hey No reason to get excited The thief, he kindly spoke There are many here among us Who feel that life is but a joke But, uh, but you and I, we've been through that And this is not our fate So let us stop talkin' falsely now The hour's getting late, hey Hey All along the watchtower Princes kept the view While all the women came and went Barefoot servants, too Well, uh, outside in the cold distance A wildcat did growl Two riders were approaching And the wind began to howl, hey All along the watchtower All along the watchtower
The Golden GOD of music is even so sexy with more clothes on, love that beautiful leather coat. Love this great man, not only amazingly talented, but smart fun & funny too.
this was done for barnabas childrens charity. a dui and community service may just be a joke. forums.ledzeppelin.com/topic/5099-wow-robert-plant-performs-in-a-mall/
Просто нет слов!Плант-само обояние! Все по простому но на высшем уровне.Роберт живёт этим,на любой сцене.И для полицейских ребята выглядят достойно.Молодцы!здоровья вам всем!!!!!!!
I think he sang the songs the cop band knew, because he had to keep looking down at the words. I’m sure he knew the songs, just not enough to sing them. It was all in fun & for charity.
