BRAND NEW & SEALED 2X 12" CLEAR VINYL In June 2006 Robert Plant performed the "We're Doing It For Love" show at New York's Beacon Theatre. The show was a medical fund-raising benefit for Love's Arthur Lee, who was undergoing treatment for leukemia at the time.
The house band backing Plant, called The Rant Band, included Andy York (John Mellencamp's lead guitarist) Tony Shanahan (Patti Smith's bass player), Steve Holley (Paul McCartney & Wings’ drummer) and the other notable musicians. This all-star band backed Plant, as did Ian Hunter and Nils Lofgren, who also appeared that night in their own right.
With Plant’s set list featuring four Arthur Lee covers, in the form of, ‘7 And 7 Is’ from Love’s sophomore album "Da Capo", plus ‘A House Is Not A Motel’, ‘Bummer In The Summer’ and ‘Old Man’ from their seminal third "Forever Changes", the mood of the evening was complete. Plant’s set also featured five Led Zeppelin cuts. Sadly, Arthur Lee died six weeks after the concert took place. SIDE A: 1. In The Evening 7:03 2. Bummer In The Summer 4:00 Total side length – 11:03
