No Quarter is a live album by Jimmy Page and Led Zeppelin singer Robert Plant, released by Atlantic Records on October 14, 1994. The long awaited reunion between Page and Plant occurred on a 90 minute "UnLedded" MTV project, recorded in Morocco, Wales, and London, which rated highly on network television. It was not a reunion of Led Zeppelin, however, as former keyboardist John Paul Jones was not present. In addition to acoustic numbers there is a heavy World music reworking of Led Zeppelin classics along with three Middle Eastern influenced songs: "City Don't Cry," "Yallah," and "Wonderful One".
The album was #4 on debut on the Billboard's Pop Albums chart.
