    Arguably Plant's most Zeppelinesque solo work to date. [May 2005, p.92]
  2. It is only when he tries to really rock-out that goldilocks falters a little.
  3. 80
    As a mature statement by someone who's done it all, but still retains a desire to create something new and fresh, Mighty Rearranger is a record of considerable depth, admirable adventure and surprising passion. [May 2005, p.110]
  4. Though Strange Sensation guitarist Liam "Skin" Tyson is no Jimmy Page, Plant can still strut with the vigour of a man half his age. [May 2005, p.114]

    I love the innovations Plant and the band have placed on the alabum. Although we all would love to hear him "primevial wail" in the stratosphere almost all the time, his never ending work at breaking new artistic ground with his music is amazing. the marriage of various styles together is refreshing and unique. gotta get it Expand

    This is the best I have heard from Robert Plant since Led Zeppelin days. I trie to like his other solo albums. The only one I liked was "Unleaded" with Jimmy Page. My hero has re-found his stregths and this album I think is Led Zep 3 recreated for 2005 Expand

    Dude is old, and this sounds like a rehash of "attempting to attain past glory" without the zip. Where is the wheelchair?
