Sophisticated Sultry Blues

What do you get when you mix a rock legend with a top country singer? Well, 'Rich Woman' is pretty much the sum of its components, a bluesy number with a sultry swagger and sloping guitar beats. There's a definite 60's strolling rhythm mixed with the smooth vocal harmonies of Plant and Krauss, which settle the listener into a chilled mood for the duration of the finger-clicking, laidback song. There's nothing mind-blowing about the tune itself, it's simply a good quality, well-produced and very slick blues rock number with shimmering backing, tapping percussion and occasional moments of blustery guitar. If you're in the mood for some top-class nostalgia, then look no further than this duo for some sophisticated blues rock action.
