You don't actually need to put any album artist tag in for this example.  All 
songs would be by both Robert Plant and Alison Krause, so all songs are still 
grouped together within one album.  The album can then be found under either 
Robert Plant or Alison Krause.

You'd only want to have album artist=Robert Plant if you didn't want it to 
appear also under Alison Krause (i.e. Alison Krause then becomes a guest artist 
to a Robert Plant album).

If there were another guest artist, eg. track 10 the artists being Robert 
Plant, Alison Krause and Bob Marley, then you would probably want ALBUM 
ARTIST=Robert Plant and ALBUM ARTIST=Alison Krause.  i.e. define both main 
artists as album artists.

i.e. ALBUM ARTIST doesn't have to be a single artist; it can be multiple 
artists.
