They have made a CD together, has anyone heard it? It's called Raising Sand

"Popular music sometimes offers some strange pairings. Remember Aerosmith and Run DMC? Bono and Tony Bennett? Well, try to wrap your brain around this one: Robert Plant and Alison Krauss. He is the former Led Zeppelin banshee from Britain, she is a bluegrass-country songbird and fiddler from the U.S. I can’t even imagine where they met up – at a Marilyn Manson/Charlotte Church concert perhaps? But it’s a good thing they did. They joined musical forces on a new CD called “Raising Sand,” which is a hybrid of both of their styles, yet it winds up in entirely new territory. Produced by T. Bone Burnett and featuring a gaggle of coveted studio musicians, “Raising Sand” soars with some cool and unusual numbers such as “Rich Woman” and covers of the Plant-Jimmy Page tune “Please Read the Letter” and Sam Phillips’ “Sister Rosetta Goes Before Us.” As musical partnerships go, this one’s a keeper.
