Robert Plant & Alison Krauss - High And Lonesome (CMT Crossroads) Amazing performance!

Cross-post from Music Appreciation.

This is so good it gives me goosebumps.

New video uploaded by CMT Crossroads yesterday:

NME article (from October 2021) about the song, which was written by Robert Plant and T-Bone Burnett:

I loved the driving beat, the subdued viola(?), and Robert Plant's voice...he's still got it.

It's just a bit more subdued and mellow now.
