While the Rolling Stones guitarist has showered praise on artists like Aretha Franklin, his thoughts on other musicians\u2014especially singers\u2014can be downright scathing. Richards has been unapologetically critical of legends such as David Bowie, Black Sabbath, and even his own bandmate, Mick Jagger. But the singer who has truly rubbed him the wrong way might surprise you: Robert Plant of Led Zeppelin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Despite the widespread admiration for Plant\u2019s voice, Richards revealed in an interview that he found it increasingly grating over time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p><em>\u201cThe guy\u2019s voice started to get on my nerves. I don\u2019t know why; maybe he\u2019s a little too acrobatic,\u201d he admitted.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>This criticism dates back to 1969, well before the pair famously collaborated in 1974 on the track&nbsp;<em>Scarlet<\/em>. However, Richards later softened his stance, admitting that his thoughts on Plant evolved as he became more focused on the band\u2019s guitarist. \u201cTo me, Led Zeppelin is Jimmy Page if you wanna cut the story short,\u201d Richards once stated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But Richards hasn\u2019t exactly become a fan of Led Zeppelin as a whole. In a 2004 interview, he called the band\u2019s music uninspiring, saying, \u201cAs a band, I felt aptly named, it never took off for me musically.\u201d While Richards acknowledged the talent within the band, particularly Page\u2019s guitar skills and Bonham\u2019s drumming, he couldn\u2019t help but critique their style.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cBonham was a hell of a powerhouse drummer, although I think he\u2019s kind of heavy-handed\u2026that\u2019s when the \u2018Led\u2019 comes in,\u201d Richards remarked. As for Plant, Richards considered him just another loud-mouthed English frontman, comparing him to the likes of Roger Daltrey, Rod Stewart, and even Mick Jagger.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Richards\u2019 preferences have always leaned toward a more laid-back, soulful style. He has long admired artists like Gregory Isaacs, Sam Cooke, and Mavis Staples, whose emotive performances are worlds apart from the high-octane energy of Led Zeppelin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Even as recently as 2015, Richards didn\u2019t have much love for the band as a whole. While he praised Page\u2019s brilliance as a guitarist, he remained critical of the band\u2019s dynamic. \u201cI love Jimmy Page, but as a band, no\u2026with John Bonham thundering down the highway in an uncontrolled 18-wheeler,\u201d he said, adding, \u201cJimmy is a brilliant player. But I always felt there was something a little hollow about it, you know?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Despite their differences, Richards and Plant did team up for&nbsp;<em>Scarlet<\/em>, a sultry track that remains a standout moment in both of their careers. While Richards may not have been won over by Plant\u2019s voice, the collaboration is a testament to the mutual respect between two legends.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the end, Keith Richards\u2019 opinions might be harsh, but they\u2019re never anything less than honest\u2014and that\u2019s what makes them so compelling.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Keith Richards, known for his candid rock \u2018n\u2019 roll opinions, doesn\u2019t mince words when it comes to his&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":9587,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2}},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-9586","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-musician"},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.2 -
