Alison Krauss, Robert Plant Take Grammy's Record of the Year

Robert Plant and Alison Krauss have four Grammy wins together, taking home Best Country Collaboration for 'Killing the Blues,' Best Pop Collaboration for 'Rich Woman,' Best Contemporary Folk/Americana Album for 'Raising Sand,' and Record of the Year for 'Please Read the Letter.'

"When we started this project together, the whole game was a mystery. We gave ourselves three days and said if it didn't work, we'd go back Wolverhampton," said Plant, upon accepting Record of the Year honors. "It's been given that Nashville touch, and it feels pretty good."

"Good things happen out of nowhere," added legendary producer T. Bone Burnett.

With 25 career wins, Krauss holds the record for most Grammy wins ever by a female solo artist.
