North American syndicated rock radio show and website, InTheStudio With Redbeard: The Stories Behind History’s Greatest Rock Bands, celebrates the 35th anniversary of Robert Plant's 1985 album, Shaken ‘N’ Stirred.

Says Host Redbeard: "It was 1983’s The Principle Of Moments, Robert Plant‘s second solo album, which first convinced us that Plant could sustain a viable solo career outside of the legendary Led Zeppelin which he fronted for twelve fabled years, but for me personally it was Shaken ‘n’ Stirred served pre-release onboard a Boeing 747 on a Walkman at 40,000 feet over the Atlantic Ocean that began my professional relationship with the complicated singer.

"Angular extended songs “In the Mood” and the cryptic “Big Log” from The Principle Of Moments became rock radio staples in the States, followed by “Little By Little” from Shaken ‘n’ Stirred in 1985. Not until 1988’s Now And Zen, however (his fourth solo suarez if you don’t count the one-off Honeydrippers EP), did Plant shed the self-conscious shadow of Led Zeppelin by exorcising his ghosts with the song ”Tall Cool One“, brilliantly sampling the “thunder of the gods” iconic licks and employing Zeppelin mastermind Jimmy Page on guitar. “Heaven Knows” and “Ship Of Fools” made Now And Zen a blockbuster, with “Hurting Kind” in 1990 from Manic Nirvana and the tender heartfelt “29 Palms” on Fate Of Nations completing our visit with Robert Plant In the Studio for this classic rock interview. And ever moving forward, Robert Plant’s eleventh effort post-LZ is out, Carry Fire."
