    Too Much Alike

    The last episode of this series has its emotional moments, as we look back at the whole of our Digging Deep journey up to this point, but we also end on a joyous musical note; a rockabilly classic covered by Robert Plant and Patti Griffin which includes the timeless lyric, “We're too much alike to like each other, like we used to do”.

    Last Time I Saw Her (Remix)

    On this episode Robert Plant and Matt Everitt dig deep into a track whose roots can be found on RP’s seventh solo album, 2002’s Dreamland. But we’re not dealing with the original, instead we're unearthing the rare remix of 'Last Time I Saw Her’. Enjoy!

    Please Read The Letter By Robert Plant & Jimmy Page

    Please Read The Letter By Robert Plant & Jimmy Page

    This is a collaboration between Robert and Jimmy Page which resulted in a classic song that made its home on the 1997 Walking into Clarksdale album. But it then re-appeared a decade later on Raising Sand – and it would go on to win The Record of the Year Award at the 2009 Grammys. This tune has had quite the life thus far…

    Quattro

    Quattro

    For the first time ever, Digging Deep features not one, but two musicians in conversation. We’ve wanted to do this since the series started back in May 2019, and the song both are discussing is Quattro, the opener from Robert and Alison Krauss’ recent album ‘Raise The Roof. Need any more hints about our mystery guest?

    All The Kings Horses

    All The Kings Horses

    The track that Robert discusses in this episode is - by his own admission - one of the very best songs he’s ever written and sung. It's a hugely loved recording for many people, which makes this episode very special. From the 2005 Mighty ReArranger album, it’s the beautiful ‘All The King’s Horses’.

    Bron-Yr-Aur Stomp

    We’re back with a new season (featuring some surprises) and start, maybe unexpectedly, with a song from Led Zeppelin III. A classic track written in a remote cottage in Wales which gave the song its famous title….

Come Back

I don’t listen to many podcasts but as a huge Robert Plant fan , I figured I’d give it a try. It was so enjoyable and informative. I wish all my favorite artists did something like this.
My only complaint…. It’s over 😢 Come back Robert! Please! You’ve barely scratched the surface of your catalogue. Thanks for a great show!

Miss listening to this. I listened to the whole series in a few weeks when I found it.

Fascinating and enjoyable

As a long time fan of Robert’s music both Zep and solo, I’ve thoroughly enjoyed these podcasts and have listened to every one. The easy conversational style and fascinating details make for an enjoyable listen.
