Robert Plant: Led Zeppelin songs on tour

Robert Plant and Alison Krauss recently wrapped up a few U.S. shows and are headed off to tour Europe in May. This summer they kick off another American leg and are being joined onstage by producer and musician T-Bone Burnett. He tells us we can expect a variety of songs at the show, including some Led Zeppelin songs: [ Click to listen if you have a backstage pass] "We're doing 'Black Dog.' I think we're doing some more obscure ones too. We're doing a couple of B-sides. We're doing 'The Battle of Evermore,' which is just mind-blowing. And that's something that Led Zeppelin never did live. So it's a great chance to do it now with Alison singing the Sandy Denny part. And of course she just kills it."

Plant and Krauss are among the more than 125 artists performing at the seventh annual Austin City Limits Music Festival, scheduled for September 26th, 27th and 28th at Zilker Park in Austin, Texas.

The pair won "Wide Open Country Video of the Year" at the Country Music Television Awards recently for the song "Gone, Gone, Gone (Done Moved On)."
