Shaken 'n' Stirred is the third solo studio album by the English singer Robert Plant, released on 20 May 1985 by Es Paranza Records. Plant, Benji Le Fevre, and Tim Palmer produced the album, which peaked at No. 19 on the UK Albums Chart and at No. 20 on the US Billboard 200. The album featured his second Mainstream Rock Tracks top hit, "Little by Little", which was No. 1 on the chart for two weeks and #36 on the Billboard Hot 100. "Sixes and Sevens" also charted on Mainstream chart, peaking at No. 18. Rhino Entertainment released a remastered edition of the album, with one bonus track, on 20 March 2007. On his podcast, Digging Deep, Plant remembers "Too Loud" as one song that was misunderstood. "I got some of Bette Midler's girls to help me with some choruses and stuff," he says. "I basically was seriously affected by David Byrne [of Talking Heads]. It's very funny, it's a funny song, it's supposed to be funny." And in a 2023 interview with Vulture, Plant said: "By Shaken 'n' Stirred, I was so determined to become the opening act for Talking Heads. So I started writing more and more oblique pieces of music — embracing what had become new studio techniques and stuff.
