#6. Robert Plant / Alison Krauss

Robert Plant / Alison Krauss

I think back to my surprise when I discovered that these two - of such radically different musical pedigree - had produced an album together. Curiosity abounded and I just had to sit down and have a listen. Not only does it work - but in coming together they (along with the help of the brilliant T-Bone Burnett) managed to craft one of the year's finest albums. You can't even imagine how well it works until you hear it. This is one of those albums I keep telling people about - Have you heard Raising Sand? The musical collaboration between Robert Plant and Alison Krauss. Yes, that Plant. Yes, that Krauss. Check it out! Full of good tracks like "Stick With Me Baby", "Polly Come Home" and "Killing the Blues".
