"A missed opportunity. This feels more like a Robert Plant album that happens to have Jimmy Page on it, and as much as I admire his guitar chops his contributions here don't seem to add up to much. It's also cursed with the CD-era blight of being too long, with songs that could either have been cu..."  [+]  Reply
