Robert Plant's Performance Of Led Zeppelin Classic Goes Online

(hennemusic) Robert Plant has released pro-shot video of a July 1 performance of the Led Zeppelin classic, "The Lemon Song," at the 2016 Rock Werchter festival in Belgium.

The tune - which originally appeared on 1969's "Led Zeppelin II" - was the opening number of Plant's 11-song set with The Sensational Space Shifters at the annual event.

Alongside several other Zeppelin tunes, Plant and the band also delivered a few originals and covers of tracks by Joan Baez ("Babe, I'm Going To Leave You") and Bukka White ("Fixin' To Die").

Plant and the band are currently on the road playing dates across Europe. Earlier this year, the singer revealed work had begun on a follow-up to 2014's "lullaby and...The Ceaseless Roar."

"Our recent travels have taken this wild whirlwind of a band though many incredible and inspiring places," said Plant ahead of a spring US tour. "Having just begun work on our new album, we thought we'd take time out to raise a little sand and welcome springtime with one more adventure, another celebration of life and song."
