RAISING SAND is a collaborative studio album by rock singer Robert Plant and bluegrass-country singer Alison Krauss. It was released on 23rd October 2007 by Rounder Records. What seems to be an unlikely pairing of former Led Zeppelin vocalist Robert Plant and bluegrass superstar Alison Krauss is actually one of the most effortless-sounding duos in modern popular music. Material chosen for album is mostly very subdued. This doesn't make it boring, it's edges are all rounded, everything is very warm, and it all sounds artificially dated. "Sister Rosetta Goes Before Us" is a centerpiece on this set. It has her fingerprints all over it. This tune, with its forlorn, percussion-heavy tarantella backdrop, might have come from a Tom Waits record were it not so intricately melodic - and Alison Krauss' gypsy swing fiddle is a gorgeous touch. There is an emptiness at the heart of longing particularly suited to Alison Krauss' woodsy voice, and Plant's harmony vocal is perfect, understated yet ever-present. It's the most organically atmospheric tune on the set for lyric and compositional content.
PERSONNEL: Alison Krauss – vocals, fiddle; Robert Plant – vocals; Patrick Warren – keyboards, pump organ, toy piano; T Bone Burnett – electric guitars, acoustic guitars, 6-string guitar, 6-string bass; Marc Ribot – electric guitars, banjo, acoustic guitars, dobro; Norman Blake – acoustic guitars; Greg Leisz – pedal steel guitar; Riley Baugus – banjo; Dennis Crouch – acoustic bass; Jay Bellerose – drums; Mike Seeger – autoharp.
Plant's own obsession with old rockabilly and blues tunes is satisfied on the set's opener, "Rich Woman". "Killing The Blues" is all cough syrup guitars, muffled tom toms, and played-in-bedroom atmospherics. "Polly Come Home" is a haunting ballad done in an old-world folk style and "Through The Morning, Through The Night" is a wasted country love song told from the point of view of an outlaw. Plant gets his chance to rock in "Gone Gone Gone (Done Moved On)". Plant's voice get to croon and drift over the distorted guitars and a clipped snare. "Please Read The Letter" is slow, plodding, almost crawling. Tom Waits' "Trampled Rose," done shotgun ballad style, is the most beautiful thing here. "Fortune Teller" lets Plant's voice come falling out of his mouth, staggering and stuttering the rhythms so they feel like a combination of Delta blues, second-line New Orleans, and Congo Square drum walk. Awesome ballad "Stick With Me Baby" sounds more like Dion & The Belmonts on the street corner on cough syrup and meaning every word. This little gem is followed by a reading of "Nothin'" done in twilight Led Zeppelin style. It plods and drifts, and crawls. It's the loudest tune on the set. And it is oh-so-slow. "Let Your Loss Be Your Lesson", a jangly country rocker in the vein of Neil Young without the weight and creak of age hindering it. The band can play backbone slip rockabilly shuffle with their eyes closed and their hands tied behind their backs, and they do it here. It's a great moment before the close. The haunting, old-timey "Your Long Journey'' is a whispering way to send this set of broken love songs off into the night. These two voices meld together seamlessly. They don't soar. They don't roar. They sing songs that offer different shades of meaning as a result of this welcome collaboration.
