Product Description
After a planned reunion with his ex-Led Zeppelin bandmates Jimmy Page and John Paul Jones fell through in the early 1990s, Robert Plant unsurprisingly returned to his solo career,while Page united with Plant soundalike David Coverdale. With its focused sound and songwriting, most longtime Zep/Plant fans point to his sixth solo release, 1993's FATE OF NATIONS, as one of his finest.
Plant and his backing band continue to explore the harder rock sounds of his previous two solo albums, as evidenced by "Calling to You" and "Promised Land", while turning down the bombast and letting the mood get more reflective on "I Believe" and "The Greatest Gift". A few years after FATE OF NATIONS appeared, Plant and Page finally reunited.

Customer Reviews
Plant's finest
Rediscovered this album a few weeks back and I can't recommend it too highly. It's one of Plant's best solo albums and a couple of the songs are up there with any Zeppelin classic, Calling to You, I Believe & 29 Palms in particular.
PLANTS BEST SOLO ALBUM
I think this Plants best solo album, although the later stuff with the strange sensation is probably on a par.Not a bad track on here, may not suit those who like their loud and heavy Zeppelin stuff but a great selection of songs.
Feel a little cheated
Balls, there's remastered versions now?!?! How gutted am I?
Ah well Fate of Nations is really, really good. It might sound a bit dated in parts but in fact it's one of my favourite albums, after getting in to Plant's music about 6 months ago. When I first played it I thought "ah no, this'll be a waste of money - sounds like old man's music" whereas I'm 26 and a girl. But as I say, it's now one of my favourite albums. "Greatest Gift" is of course one of the best songs on the album but there are many more treasures here.
