Marrakech to Fes desert tour: Beats, Dust & Robert Plant… rockin down in Marrakech!!!!!

Morocco inspired Robert Plant to write ‘Kashmir’ as the Led Zeppelin singer journeyed through southern Morocco in the back of a taxi cab.

In spring 1994, Jimmy Page and Robert Plant visited Marrakesh in Morocco to play with local musicians in the old city square, Jemaa El-Fnaa.”We’d never met the Gnawa when we went there,” said Plant in 1994 interview a “but they were very patient, and smiling is a great currency.” Gnawa music is traditionally performed for prayer and healing, and differs from other North African music. “They play a kind of music which is much more akin to the music of the Mississippi Delta than it is to do with Arab music,” Plant in an other interview said in . “It’s haunting, seductive, and quite alluring.”
