Stories from the Compound
Well it seems like only yesterday but it was nearly 20 years ago that I had the opportunity to meet one of the greatest voices of Rock n Roll.
It was a typical rainy day in the city as the crew and equipment arrived for the day’s shoot. Being a huge fan of Led Zeppelin, you can just imagine how excited I was to work on a video for Robert Plant. When Mr. Plant arrived everyone was excited to start the day’s filming. It was a pretty simple shoot and nothing out of the ordinary happened until the director shouted, “that’s a wrap.” It was then that Mr. Plant did the unthinkable, he actually took the time to thank everyone for their days work, not with a “thanks everyone”, but he actually thanked everyone individually. Like I said the shoot itself was uneventful but to this day Robert Plant is still touring and making great music, but the bottom line is Mr Plant is one class act.
The music video was for the song “Ship of Fools” off of Plants’ “Now and Zen” album.
