Led Zeppelin called it quits in 1980 following the death of their drummer, John Bonham. Plant released his first solo album, Pictures at Eleven, in 1982, releasing three other solo albums in the '80s: 1983's The Principle of Moments, 1985's Shaken 'n' Stirred and 1988's Now and Zen.

Plant also teamed up with his Led Zeppelin bandmate Jimmy Page and guitarist Jeff Beck for the side project Honeydrippers, releasing the EP The Honeydrippers: Volume One in 1984. It featured a remake of Phil Phillips' "Sea of Love," which hit #3 on the Billboard Hot 100 singles chart. In 1988 he reunited with his Led Zeppelin bandmates Page and John Paul Jones, along with Bonham's son Jason, to perform at the Atlantic Records 40th anniversary celebration concert at New York's Madison Square Garden.
