ALS from Robert Plant, signed ÂGood vibes, Robert, Maureen, Carmen, & Logan, one page, 8.25 x 11.75, gorgeous 'swan with sirens' letterhead, no date, between 1979 and 1982. Written from PlantÂs Jennings Farm home in Blakeshall, a letter to Stan Urban, a resident musician at a club called La Reja in Ibiza, Spain. In full: ÂTrusting youÂre all fine etc. Well IÂve done it; transferred some reggae from tape to tape. Unfortunately the quality is not very good but the original has travelled miles & miles with me on tour and is more or less knackered. There is some nice stuff on it & some more conventional Âpop by Toots & the Maytells which I like a lot. Originally I had two tapes, the one you have here, and another. The other was far more ÂDUB than this one. It looks as if I left in AmericaÂyou know 'Gotta to be out of the hotel in 3 minutes'ÂAnyway IÂm hunting for some other stuff & will record it in time! Alas we canÂt make Ibiza as we hoped Maureen has to go back in hospital to have some of her metal removed from her leg in a weeks timeÂand will be in hospital for a couple of weeks, so we shall have to see what happens afterwards. Keep in touch." In very good to fine condition, with splitting along two of the three horizontal mailing folds. Accompanied by a certificate of authenticity from Tracks and by a letter of provenance from the original recipient: "Robert and I became friends in Ibiza during the late 70sÂearly 80s. We jammed together several times. Both of us loved reggae and he used to record tracks which he thought would interest me." PlantÂs mention of Maureen (Wilson) having Âmetal removed from her leg is undoubtedly related to the coupleÂs nearly fatal accident on the Greek island of Rhodes on August 4, 1975, when their car skidded off the road and collided with a tree in a ravine. Wilson suffered life-threatening injuries in the crash, including a broken leg and a fractured skull and pelvis. While Wilson remained in London to continue recovery, Plant wrote the song 'Tea for One, expressing his feelings for her while they were apart.Format: ALS
