I thought we might be a little shaky because we always
00:04
are so self-analytical
00:07
that the first wrong note we go
00:09
Robert Plant is an English singer, songwriter and musician
00:13
Plant's best known as Led Zeppelin's lead vocalist
00:17
but he's also enjoyed great success in his solo endeavors
00:20
as well as with Strange Sensation, The Band of Joy
00:23
The Sensational Space Shifters and Alison Krauss
00:27
His signature, powerful wide vocal range and his trademark high-pitched singing
00:32
have led to Plant being regarded as one of the best singers
00:35
in the history of rock and roll
00:37
And in 2009, a poll conducted by radio station Planet Rock
00:42
named him the greatest voice in rock
00:44
Robert was named the greatest metal vocalist of all time
00:48
by Hit Parader magazine in 2006
00:50
He came in at number 15 on Rolling Stone magazine's 2008 list
00:55
of the 100 greatest singers of all time
00:58
Additionally, when Rolling Stone asked readers to vote for their favorite lead singers of all time
01:03
Plant took the number one spot
01:05
So it doesn't matter, we tried returning to the small gigs
01:09
disastrously once in England
01:12
when everybody was going, oh, big time, you know

His full name is Robert Anthony Plant CBE
01:30
but is also known as the greatest metal vocalist of all time
01:34
He was born on August 20th, 1948
01:37
in West Bromwich, Staffordshire, England
01:39
making him age 72 at the time of this production
01:42
He stands at 1.86 meters or 6 feet 1 inches tall
01:47
For an iconic sex symbol like Robert Plant
01:51
one would assume that he would always have dreamed of being some sort of musician
01:55
aiming for the world's stages
01:57
Well, as it turns out, Plant's early years were spent in books
02:01
with the rocker choosing stamp collecting as a hobby rather than music
02:05
Plant is interested in Welsh history
02:08
He donated money to the creation of a bronze statue of Welsh Prince Owain Glyndwr
02:13
at Pennell Church near Mackinlith in Wales
02:15
unveiled in September 2004
02:17
In the New Year Honours List 2009
02:21
Plant was appointed a Commander of the Order of the British Empire
02:24
for services to music
02:26
and on July 10th, 2009
02:28
invested by the Prince of Wales
02:30
On August 14th, 2009
02:33
football club Wolverhampton Wanderers
02:35
announced that Plant was to become the club's third vice president
02:39
Plant officially received the honor
02:41
before kickoff at the club's first match of the season
02:44
against West Ham United
02:45
Plant was 5 years old when he first visited Molyneux Stadium
02:49
He recalled in an interview with his local paper
02:52
The Express and Star in August 2010
02:54
I was 5 when my dad took me down for the first time
02:58
and Billy Wright waved at me
02:59
Honest, he did
03:00
And that was it
03:02
I was hooked from that moment
03:03
In 2020, Plant donated toward frontline medical supplies
03:08
during the COVID-19 pandemic
03:09
The money went to the GoFundMe page
03:12
of a small clothing manufacturer in Kidderminster, England
03:15
that makes scrubs for local hospitals
03:17
Plant married Maureen Wilson on November 9th, 1968
03:21
The couple had three children
03:23
daughter Carmen Jane, born 1968
03:26
who later married Charlie Jones
03:28
Plant's bass player for solo tours
03:30
and sons Carrick Pendragon, 1972 to 1977
03:34
and Logan Romero, born 1979
03:37
The couple divorced in August 1983
03:40
Sadly, in 1977, during Led Zeppelin's U.S. tour
03:45
his 5-year-old son, Carrick, died of a stomach illness
03:48
The song All My Love, co-written with John Paul Jones
03:52
is a tribute to him
03:53
In 2010, Plant began a relationship
03:57
with singer-songwriter Patty Griffin
03:59
and moved into her Austin, Texas home
04:01
They split up in 2014
04:03
and Robert returned to England
04:05
How do you maintain your voice?
04:08
I go to a lot of soccer games
04:10
You do?
04:11
Yeah
04:11
Yeah
04:11
And you learn how to chant
04:14
You learn how to be disreputable, vulgar
04:17
You meld with all your brothers
04:19
and your voice gets really strong
04:21
It's a little muscle in here
04:22
