Robert Plant - The Boy Who Wouldn't Hoe Corn



Robert Plant and Alison Krauss were on CMT Crossroads in 2008 singing some songs from their brilliant album, Raising Sand.

"The Boy Who Wouldn't Hoe Corn" was not on that CD but is a staple for live shows done by Alison Krauss & Union Station (AKUS), where Dan Tyminski leads the vocals on that particular song and Krauss follows up with "Take Me For Longing." The video also has some commentary from Robert around the 4:30 mark. Though I like what Plant does with the song, I prefer the version done by AKUS here.
