The Honeydrippers: Volume One is an EP released on 24 September 1984, by a band led by
rock singer Robert Plant. The project originated when Atlantic Records president Ahmet
Ertegün wanted to record an album of his favorite songs from the 1950s. Plant was chosen
because Ertegün had seen his pick-up band the Honeydrippers performing 1950s standards.
Included in the band were Chic front man Nile Rodgers, and former Yardbirds guitarists Jeff
Beck and Jimmy Page—the latter was Plant's former band mate in Led Zeppelin.
To Plant's horror, "Sea of Love" became Plant's biggest-selling single. According to Plant, the
original single was "Rockin' at Midnight," with "Sea of Love" as the "B" side. The single was
eventually "flipped" because radio stations were playing "Sea of Love" far more than Rockin'
at Midnight. Plant feared his career would be ruined by this, and that people would think of
him now as a "crooner", instead of the rock and roll singer he'd always been. As a result,
when he would be asked about The Honeydrippers in years to come, Plant would refer to The
Honeydrippers as having been "put to sleep." "Rockin at Midnight" is a remake of a 1954
Elvis Sun single called "Good Rockin' Tonight"
