Does anyone know which song from this album was made into a music video
where at the end he’s in a car dressed in s suit, he gets stuck in traffic
and gets out of his car and starts taking off his suit jacket, tie, shirt
and is walking down the highway? I think the song is from this album, not
sure though.
Along with “the Principle of Moments,” proof that he is perhaps the best
rock artist to have ever lived.
Love this album and of course always, The Zep!!! Everything!!! They ever
done!!!
Man, I remember this album! I had it on tape. lol Have no idea where it
came from but I ended-up liking it alot from what I can remember. Thanks
for the nostalgic upload.

ROBERT PLANT “NOW AND ZEN” – CD ALBUM REMASTERED; 2/29/1988.
Too much synthesizer and computer drum (sounds) for my normal taste, but
the songs and the vocal make it a very listenable album anyway.
Robert Plant…. Just the best front man of all time….. =D
Does not get better !!!
What kind of fool am I, Heaven knows.

Great album. Hate that his great singing voice has gone straight downhill
since about 1993. But very happy to have all of his albums. I partied like
crazy to this album with HS friends in late 80’s in New Orleans where I
grew up.
ship of fools.love it
tremendous solo album! I wore out the cassette! Thanks for sharing!
PRECAPTURE MK CIA CAN STAY
Fantastic album. I remember when this was released I played it constantly.
Gotta get out the cd and hear it again!
The lyrics for Ship of Fools are shear poetry.
I used to listen to this in the 80″s, awesome memories, Robert
Plant…….LEGAND!!!!!
hmmm this is nice
And yes, that’s Jimmy Page on guitar…
This still Rocks quite well today my friends! (and how could it not?)
Robert Plant’s Zep swaq is evident throughout this outstanding album. Had
the cassette in ’87.I waited to long to hear it on CD.
Well?
“Anything GOES”!
Since He found his new voice in 1993, why didn’t he spend some of his money
on a new face. Everyone gets old but they don’t have to look as bad as
Keith Richards!
<3 <3 <3 ..... :)

end……walking towards parradise…….wouldnt it be nice,,,,,cheers
Forgotten just how good this album is.

LED ZEPов…ЛЕСТНИЦУ В ПОДНЕБЕСЬЕ МОГУТ ПОСЛУШАТЬ ВСЕ! печаль лишь в
том-что слушать здравый смысл- неактуально нынче(нет перевода в ублюдизме
слову НЫНЧЕ )
