Rockpile with Robert Plant - Little Sister

Posted almost 4 years ago

OK, guess with the way MOG's behaving, it's a videos night. Emscee's recent Rockpile post led me to stumble onto this little gem....

mousetrap says The band is sensational, but the singer is flaaaaaaaaat! I'll admit I was never a Zep fan, but I have enjoyed Plant's singing in many contexts. Here, though, he's just not at the top of his game. This old Doc Pomus tune is such a precious nugget of lyrical economy and killer hookiness that I hate to see it shortchanged....but Dave Edmunds' solo does make up for a lot.

Jonh Ingham says Nick Lowe on bass. And missed ending.

mousetrap says Wait -- you're listing those as pluses? Or minuses? The missed ending did bug me, but I decided I was already sounding like a whingey nitpicker.

waydutch says I agree, Plant doesn't really seem quite comfortable with the song, still was happy to find it last night
