The Principle of Moments

Robert Plant

80s restraint. Shimmering guitars, sparse drum machines, and a voice that trades the rock-god wail for a haunting, nocturnal whisper.

July 11, 1983 · Es Paranza Records

A cool, detached sensuality that feels like a solitary journey through a moonlit landscape.

Moments Worth Listening For
The hypnotic, ticking drum machine and liquid guitar solo that defines the lonely sprawl of Big Log
The transition into the airy, polyrhythmic groove of In the Mood where the vocals seem to float above the beat
The sudden, sharp guitar stabs that break the tension in the otherwise smooth Other Arms
