Apparently he bristled when Plant bought him a Roland guitar synthesizer and told him to figure out how to use it. But ultimately once Shaken N Stirred and the subsequent tour was over, Plant decided that none of his band could cut it anymore so he ditched the lot of them. A shame really, as they were a pretty decent little band- no Zeppelin. Hi there, I wonder if you could help me find out a little more about the image below of Robert Plant from 1984. My late sister in law was a HUGE fan, and since she passed away suddenly and unexpectedly last year, we never got the chance to ask the history of the attached.

This is one of the strangest records I've heard from an ex singer of a legendary rock band, i.e., Led Zeppelin! It's got clean, click-clack production, piles of synths and nonsense lyrics.

Funny thing is I have a strange fascination for it. It's both baffling and hard now looking back to 1985 to think this was recorded and crafted in a studio and released. It's not essential listening and Now & Zen from 1988 is a better return to form for Plant. An oddball LP from the days when Zep were just a memory.
