Robert Plant Presents the Sensational Space Shifters Tear Through ‘Black Dog’ Live

Band takes roots route with Led Zeppelin’s rock classic

May 13, 2013

Robert Plant and the Sensational Space Shifters trekked through South America last year, and they recently wrapped up a handful of Australian dates. They’re not stopping yet, though, and are all set for a U.S. trek that starts June 20th at the Palladium in Dallas, Texas.

Now you can get a taste of what’s in store with this exclusive clip that shows footage from those Australian and South American shows, as well as audio of Plant and company performing the Led Zeppelin classic “Black Dog.” As Plant sings with as much grit as ever, the Space Shifters turn the hard-rock classic into a rootsy number that comes to a joyous close in a cacophony of strings and percussion, as well as whoops and hollers from onstage and in the crowd.
