Review

Rolling Stone (6/8/93, p.114) - 3.5 Stars - Very Good - "...almost ceremoniously attempts to shake the Led out....Plant's technical achievements alone attest that some of rock's greatest performers are, like any legendary vintage, only improving with time..."
Entertainment Weekly (6/11/93, p.58) - "...[a] wonderfully textured and mature solo album, his best ever..." - Rating: A-
Q (1/94, p.87) - Included in Q's list of `The 50 Best Albums Of 1993' - "...there's a surprising delicacy about his performance and a new lightness in his step throughout...."
Q (6/93, p.105) - 4 Stars - Excellent - "...this generously proportioned magic carpet ride over some varied, though well signposted terrain should be regarded as another notable notch on the belt...the venerable vocalist's most ambitiously constructed album to date..."
Musician (7/93, p.90) - "...Having tired of the post-modernism that pervaded NOW AND ZEN, Plant shifts gears and turns to...hippie music? Well, sorta. Although the thrumming acoustics and Celtic modality hearken to LED ZEP III, Plant's approach has less to do with nostalgia than emotional intensity..."

Recording information: 1993.

After a planned reunion with his ex-Led Zeppelin bandmates Jimmy Page and John Paul Jones fell through in the early 1990s, Robert Plant unsurprisingly returned to his solo career, while Page united with Plant soundalike David Coverdale. With its focused sound and songwriting, most longtime Zep/Plant fans point to his sixth solo release, 1993's FATE OF NATIONS, as one of his finest.

Plant and his backing band continue to explore the harder rock sounds of his previous two solo albums, as evidenced by "Calling to You" and "Promised Land," while turning down the bombast and letting the mood get more reflective on "I Believe" and "The Greatest Gift." A few years after FATE OF NATIONS appeared, Plant and Page finally reunited.
