| | Dreamland |
 | | Dreamland, his first true solo album since 1993's Fate of Nations, paints the singer as a Peter Gabriel-esque singer/songwriter, blending his moody pop with elements from world music and electronica. |
 | | The one surprise on this album, predominantly consisting of covers as it does, is that Plant doesn't have a crack at a Love song, especially given that he's been playing a couple in recent live shows. |
 | | Instead, 'Dreamland' finds Plant moving with unlikely dignity through the likes of 'Hey Joe', Moby Grape's awesome 'Skip's Song', Dylan's 'One More Cup Of Coffee' (a bit ropey, this one, in truth) and, with a certain inevitabilty, a few Delta blues standards. |
