Shaun warms up ahead of Robert Plant's 6 Music Live gig after 10am and is after your Middle age Shout Outs - get involved via #maso

Multiple Grammy Award winner; Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee; and, in a 2011 Rolling Stone poll, named by readers as the top rock vocalist of all time.

Robert Plant is best known for his work with rock heavyweights Led Zeppelin, who delivered a series of era-defining albums in the 1970s, as well as classic tracks such as 'Stairway to Heaven', 'Whole Lotta Love' and 'Kashmir'. He's since gone on to forge a successful solo career, releasing ten albums to date.

Robert Plant and his Sensational Space Shifters will be performing songs from their new album 'Carry Fire' for the first time, alongside some of his classic tracks. This, his 11th album, is due for release the week after his 6 Music Live performance, and is his first full length release since 2014's acclaimed 'lullaby and...The Ceaseless Roar'.

"It's about intention," says Plant of his latter-day career and his current work. "I rejoice in my previous work but must continue the journey to new worlds, after all there are so many songs that are yet to be written."

Plus, Cbeebies' Hacker T Dog reads out Josh Homme lyrics ahead of the great man hosting the Bedtime Story later this afternoon. Our good friend Hacker gets his teeth
into Long Slow Goodbye - but it's no Cotton Eye Joe is it?!
