Description
"It began in Alison’s Nashville home. Sitting side by side, with Burnett quietly lining out chord changes on guitar, Plant and Krauss sang. There were no microphones, no effects – nothing to hide behind or escape into. 'The idea was to take them both out of their comfort zone,' Burnett reflects. 'To take us all out of our comfort zones.' As one of the finest harmony singers in any style of music, Krauss worked carefully with Plant to develop a blend, telepathically following the contours of his phrasing. New to such intensive two-part harmony, Plant pared down his vocal style to its most basic components – resulting in some of the most affecting, soulful singing he has yet captured on tape. 'I don’t get nervous really,' Plant said of those early sessions. 'But I realized once I started sitting down on that couch, I was in for a ride.' As they grew more comfortable with the songs and the way their voices complimented one another, they stepped into the studio."- myspace.com
