BBC Radio 6 Music broadcast: 10th April 2022

Robert Plant returns to 6 Music for a three-week stint sitting in for Iggy Pop.

Expect a deep dive into his record collection, including cuts by Lulu, Calexico, Terry Reid, Lucinda Williams and Donovan.

Robert is one of the greatest front men in rock and roll history. Alongside Led Zeppelin members Jimmy Page, John Bonham and John Paul Jones, he is the genius behind such iconic songs as Whole Lotta Love, Stairway to Heaven and Black Dog. Led Zeppelin sold over 300 million album worldwide, and have won multiple awards – including Grammy and Ivor Novello awards.

Following Zeppelin's demise, Robert has worked with a kaleidoscope of musicians across the globe from Mali to Mississippi and most recently released his second collaborative album with bluegrass legend Alison Krauss. The record comes 14 years after their award-winning debut, Raising Sand.
