Robert Plant
Robert Plant was the shrieking, swaggering golden god at the center of Led Zeppelin’s titanic hard-rock sound. An archetypal frontman with razor-sharp phrasing and world-class pipes, he also co-wrote many of Zeppelin’s greatest songs, including “Stairway to Heaven” and “Good Time Bad Times.” Plant’s post-Zep career hasn’t always been filled with commercial success. But artistically he’s held his own, making interesting choices in repertoire and coming up with several cool collaborations, and his work with country singer Allison Krauss made 2007’s Raising Sand an out-of-the-blue smash.
