  1. The Honeydrippers, Volume One, 1984 on Es Paranza

    Robert Plant’s early 80s group dedicated to reproducing the sound of R&B, which had a big hit with a cover of “Sea of Love.”

    The title, Volume One, turned out to be aspirational as it was their only LP.

    The lineup, however, includes (in addition to Plant): Jimmy Page, Jeff Beck, Paul Shaffer, Nile Rodgers, Wayne Pedzwater, Dave Weckl, Brian Setzer, and Keith Smith.

    My copy—via VInyl Destination in Lowell, MA—is a 1984 pressing from Speciality Record Pressing. Love this version of the labbel.
