Hear Robert Plant Belt Out a Led Zeppelin Classic On Stage With Rocker Jack White

We've gotten an occasional whiff of what a Led Zeppelin reunion would sound like, but nothing that we'd consider "enough" to quench our thirst.  We'll just have to settle for the occasional guest spot like we get to see now in Argentina.

Don't ask me how the conversation went, or how Jack White convinced legend Robert Plant to come on stage in SOUTH AMERICA and belt out "The Lemon Song" on stage at Lollapalooza.  It's certainly a coup.

"The Lemon Song" wasn't part of the 16 songs played during the 2007 reunion gig at London's O2 Arena.  The song hasn't been sung publicly by Plant since 1997 on the No Quarter tour with Jimmy Page.  The track wasn't included on the album, so unless you saw the tour at that time, this is the first time you've heard Robert Plant sing the song since the '70s.

While this appearance absolutely doesn't signal any sort of itch from Robert Plant to reunite with the boys, it gives us an indicator that he can still hit the notes if it ever did happen.  In fact, Plant has found great success (and we're guessing happiness) in his solo career as a folk/bluegrass singer of sorts.  His latest album, his 10th solo LP, came out last November, and he continues to find great critical success in the twilight of his career.

This isn't the first time Jack White has scored big on the Led Zeppelin front.  He's jammed with the other half of Zeppelin's famous duo before.

There was this time

And this time

And finally, this time

Whether this is something you deem to be "cool enough to watch" or "not enough to quench the Zep thirst" really depends on whether your glass is half-full or half-empty.  Be the half-full person for four minutes to enjoy one of Earth's last great rock stars (Jack White) with one of its first rock stars.
