According to LED ZEPPELIN fan-site Lemon Squeezings, former LED ZEPPELIN frontman ROBERT PLANT was pulled into a Los Angeles recording session recently by famed producer Daniel Lanois, whose credits include some "unforgettable" U2 albums, a solo career and a current band project making waves in that area, BLACK DUB.

Around early October, Plant and Lanois recorded some demos with Black Dub's lead vocalist, Trixie Whitley. At 22, she is a singer-songwriter who plays piano and drums. She has lived in New York and Belgium and has followings in both places.

Best of all, Whitley's Facebook page now confirms Plant as one of the musicians with whom she has worked, along with Vernon Reid (LIVING COLOUR), Me'Shell N'Degeocello and her late father, 'Big Sky Country' singer CHRIS WHITLEY.

A session drummer involved in the recording says he isn't sure what plans Lanois and Plant may have in store. "I honestly don't have too much to say other than we're making some demos," Steven Nistor tells LedZeppelinNews.com.

Nistor is often the go-to guy for whatever drumming needs Lanois has. Among other things, he can be seen backing Lanois during an April 2008 appearance on The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson:
