“He came in about an hour before the end, and he didn’t just come along and just make it all about him,” Jamie Rodden said, according to the BBC. “He actually certainly listened to the people that were playing as well.”
Robert Plant performed with Led Zeppelin from 1968 to 1980, along with drummer John Bonham, guitarist Jimmy Page and bassist John Paul Jones. The group disbanded in 1980 after Bonham died from an alcohol overdose.

The band’s most-beloved song, “Stairway to Heaven”, was the subject of a legal battle with an American rock band called Spirit, who claimed Page and Plant stole one of their riffs. The group won their copyright infringement battle in 2020, saving Plant and Page millions of dollars in legal damages.
