Today's Morning Edition music is from Robert Plant and his take on the folk song "Little Maggie." It's the first track on the former Led Zeppelin lead singer's forthcoming album "Lulaby and the Ceaseless Roar."
This is Plant's 10th solo album and he says it could be his last. He told the Independent that "this musical wanderlust and the wonderful carousel that I've been on. It's like a kaleidoscope: you hold it up to the light, rotate it, and the pieces fall beautifully in different ways, but this record feels different. It seems to have some sort of finality."
The album comes out on Tuesday, but you can stream it now at TheCurrent.org. And here's some video of Plant and his band performing the song live this summer at the Galstonbury Festival in England.
