What's in Vernon's vault today?

Singer, songwriter, Led Zeppelin front man and music legend Robert Plant chooses his Tracks Of My Years. Plus another dip into archive treasure in Vernon's Vault.

Led Zeppelin icon and Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame inductee Robert Plant - regarded as one of rock music's greatest vocalists - chooses ten of his favourite songs in this week's Tracks of My Years.

As part of Led Zeppelin, Robert is known for classics tracks such as "Stairway to Heaven," "Whole Lotta Love," and "Kashmir," but he also embarked on a successful solo career after the breakup of the band, with twelve studio albums, two compilation albums, three video albums, four collaborative albums, and 44 singles to date.

One of Robert's most notable collaborations has been his duet album with Alison Krauss - called 'Raising Sand' - which won five Grammy Awards, including Album and Record of the Year.

He's also collaborated with bands Strange Sensation, Band Of Joy and Sensational Shape Shifters, and in September, Robert is set to release a new album with his latest group Saving Grace, with a North American tour planned for the Autumn.

Plus the mid-morning music quiz Ten To The Top, a trip in to the 蜜芽传媒 Archive with Vernon's Vault, and the Record and Album Of The Week.

To listen on most smart speakers, just say "Ask 蜜芽传媒 Sounds to play Vernon Kay."
