"After winning five Grammys this past weekend, including Album of the Year for Raising Sand, Robert Plant and Alison Krauss are already back in the studio with T Bone Burnett working on the follow-up to their platinum-selling LP. Thanks to the huge Grammy night, Raising Sand is on pace to top this week&amp;apos;s sales chart, despite not even being on the Top 200 two weeks ago.\r\n&amp;quot;Alison and Robert have been in the studio for about two weeks and although we haven&amp;apos;t heard any of the music, we&amp;apos;ve been hearing good things from the musicians,&amp;quot; said Rounder Records&amp;apos; Ken Irwin in an e-mail to Country Standard Time. Burnett recently spoke to Rolling Stone about Plant &amp;amp; Krauss for a story in the next issue (which hits stands next week). &amp;quot;The one thing we certainly can&amp;apos;t do is try and repeat [Raising Sand],&amp;quot; he told us. &amp;quot;That was a moment in time and a beautiful moment, so to try and do that sort of thing again would detract from that.&amp;quot; He adds, &amp;quot;Hopefully we have at least two more records in us.&amp;quot;\r\nIt&amp;apos;s kind of hard to be disappointed by news that the winners of the Album of the Year award are recording a follow-up, but this info likely doesn&amp;apos;t sit well with Led Zeppelin fans who were hoping that the group would finally reunite for a full-scale tour once Plant fulfilled his touring obligations with Krauss. A new album probably means another tour, even though Plant said he wouldn&amp;apos;t tour for &amp;quot;at least two years&amp;quot; after his first tour with Krauss ended.\r\nThough many assumed Plant and Krauss would release a live CD/DVD before another album, Irwin said there&amp;apos;s no plan for a DVD at this time. Irwin was also unsure of the new album&amp;apos;s release date: &amp;quot;We set our release dates when we get all the pieces in place and at this point, we don&amp;apos;t have any yet.&amp;quot;\r\nRelated Stories:\r\n&amp;#x2022; Plant &amp;amp; Krauss, Lil Wayne, Coldplay Win Big at 2009 Grammy Awards &amp;#x2022; Robert Plant Denies Led Zeppelin Rumors, Says He Won&amp;apos;t Tour Again &amp;quot;For At Least The Next Two Years&amp;quot; &amp;#x2022; Robert Plant Remains &amp;quot;Great Friends&amp;quot; With Jimmy Page, Still Plans To Do &amp;quot;Different Things&amp;quot;"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
