10 Music Autobiographies We Would Love To Read

3. Robert Plant

robert plant Often cited as one of the most significant and influential singers in the history of modern music, Robert Plant has had an impressive forty-five year career since arriving on the scene in 1968 as the mouthpiece for rock giants Led Zeppelin. Throughout the band€™s most successful period in the early 1970s, Plant was juggling superstardom, a wife and children, constant touring, numerous groupie liaisons and increasing drug dependencies of those within the band. The decade of extreme highs also delivered some devastating lows for Plant when he lost his five year old son and Led Zeppelin€™s drummer John Bonham in 1977 and 1980 respectively. These days, the charismatic frontman is regularly looked to as the blueprint for rock n€™ roll€™s Golden God €“ he had the striking mane of hair, the bare-chest, the flamboyant clothing and the strut of a man who ruled the world. His varied creative output post-Led Zeppelin demonstrates that Robert Plant is still a man with plenty to say, and the telling of this powerfully unique experience from the mystical, spiritual and philosophical lyricist himself would guarantee a page-turning experience.
