Robert Plant Honors Delta Blues Influence On Led Zeppelin
. Plant decided to address Led Zeppelin's delta blues influences while at the festival. Said Plant: "So much Zeppelin did come from here. Almost subconsciously, just through the floor of the room where we were recording. With Jimmy's enthusiasm and knowledge and record collection, between the two of us, on that level, we had such a mutual preference towards that stuff, and the wild side of rock 'n' roll." Plant continued by acknowledging the importance of his old band, and how Zeppelin continue influencing newer acts "It's all a long way back, even to go back to Led Zeppelin or the Stones or whatever, but it did shape, and still does shape, the music from around here. It goes through to the Black Keys, to Jack White, to all over the place. There's nothing new under the sun - you just get a can of paint out." more on this story Gibson.com is an official news provider for the antiMusic.com.
