Announcing our official Record Store Legend,
@robertplantofficial đ
This accolade recognises Robert Plantâs lasting impact on music around the world, as well as his ongoing dedication to supporting both new artists and record shops. Robert Plant has been a familiar face in record shops worldwide, and they have remained central to his musical life, cementing his status as a true Record Store Legend.
Speaking at Spillers, Robert Plant said: Record stores have always been a part of my life. For me, once you get to the physical record itâs because you really want to know and be a part of what the artist was considering. And I know, as a guy whoâs been making records since 1966, people want to take home something very special, to enjoy all the elements of what an artist has put together. We want a connection between the music and the art of the whole thing.
Robert Plant chose
