Dec 12, 2017Once again Robert Plant proves his vigor for his continued exploration of new music rather than just falling back on the supreme success of the past and cashing in with reunion tours as the rest of the classic pack does. Not that there's anything wrong with that, but as much as I love Zep I'll take this way over hearing the same old great stuff for the thousandth time.

Dec 21, 2017This is a good piece of real music, communion of wonderful musicians, and as such is scarce. One may not like it but must appreciate.

Nov 7, 2017Each of Plant's albums are distinctly different from the others (a tradition that started in Led Zeppelin). On this self-produced triumph, Plant finds fresh ways to present his voice and express his venerable perspective.

Q MagazineOct 24, 2017Where The May Queen plugs into a strain of joyous psychedelic folk that owes much to the 1660s as the 1960s, the stark desert blues of the title track showcases Plant's love of North African music, not to mention a voice that's been beautifully weathered by the elements. Who needs a Zeppelin reunion anyway? [Dec 2017, p.112]

Oct 18, 2017While Carry Fire showcases some of Plant’s best and most confessional lyricism, there’s no denying that this is an album that stands out most for its lusciously complex musical structures and influences, allowing for it to purvey an other-worldly quality.
