One of Rock's mightiest voices got toned way down when Robert Plant teamed with Alison Kraus and followed their Raising Sand collaboration with a Roots Rock project called the Band Of Joy.  Both top notch releases were met with only limited enthusiasm from fans eager her Plant really cut loose like he did with Zeppelin.  That faction just might find his next effort a bit more exciting.  The former Zep front man, now working on a new album and a new group called Sensational Space Shifters, recently did a gig at the Forum in London and says someone remarked that it was good to hear him using his 'big voice' for the first time in a long while.  Calling it '...good to get it out again', Plant remarked that reverting to it was a case of using '...the right colors for the right picture.'  While he did not reveal much about the dozen tracks he thinks will be on the Sensational Space Shifters album, he did promise '...no sentimental stuff.'
