    The songs here are pretty solid. An americana mix of country rock, rockabilly and soul that range from decent to great. It is Plant's vocals that elevate this album to something special. Now in his 8th decade on the planet, he gives a performance full of soulful gravity. Alison Kraus plays her part too of course and together they complement each other superbly.

    Great album, from me even better than their collaboration on Raising sand in 2007. I just keep listening to it and after several repeats, it sounds even better. The highest level of musicianship from both sides, also very good arrangements and production by T-Bone Burnett. Excellent!

    Has a similar beauty and mystery [as 2007's Raising Sand] with covers of Calexico. [Jan 2022, p.71]

    While a little less grace and a little more grit could have benefitted their second pairing, Robert Plant and Allison Krauss’ “Raise the Roof” is nice and rough in all the right places.

    Maybe after the stresses and strains of the past couple of years we need a familiar embrace to soothe away our pain. Raise The Roof fits the bill, even if it might win fewer prizes for originality than its predecessor.
