Probably no worse than her usual caterwauling.

I hate what she did to her face, but Frau Parton does fine on the song:



I always found Plant as a person, his lyrics and his vocal melodies effeminate - all that chestbeating machismo struck me as thoroughly unconvincing -, so I actually think a lot of Zep stuff lends itself well to be sung by a woman. Deep Purple's Highway Star and Black Sabbath's Iron Man not so much.

True. Whole Lotta Love has been on the Superfloor setlist forever...

Yeeesh!
That quavering vibrato on almost every line...
But nowhere near as offensive as this travesty:

Don't let the other-half read that or you'll find out what a butchers block really is for...  :o ;D

At least she's totally honest and up-front about it... ;D (try and get a listen or read her "tramp" story - beautiful and funny) ... She never did have children...

Scott... you haven't persuaded 'Smoke to cover a Slade song...?  :o  :o  :o
