yeah but the great ones also acknowledge where they stole or got their influence

in fact truly great artists dont steal, they create novel ideas and new ways of communicating the same emotions that other artists have been communicating for thousands of years

led zeppelin, man, they were just a corporate arena rock band stealing shit left and right

they stole so many fucking songs this would just be one more notch on the belt

fuck led zeppelin and fuck artists who plagerize

variations on a theme, by Led Zeppelin. simple as that.

and all artists "borrow" ideas from others, its called influence.

I'd say in this case it was more of a straight up rip off.

influence isnt taking the same melody line and lyrics, thats plagarization by definition

influence is taking the style or feel of an artist or song and applying it in your own way with creativity

i mean look at eric clapton. hes a great blues artist, he'll cover a song and give the artist credit, and he has the ability to create amazing original songs as well.

jimmy page/robert plant just plain stole this song and many others and thats not creative or original

if Roy Harper vouches for Zeppelin and Page, then they are alright in my book.

Led Zep stole or appropriated the majority of their catalog from other people, and you know what, they did it really fuckin well. Know what else, whitey stole rock and roll from the black man, imagine that.

Also them stealing songs is fuckin ollllllllllllld news.

Yo- guys im not saying they were a horrible band. just terribly unoriginal and uncreative, and certainly not great artists. The ability to rock the fuck out is an entire different skill set than the ability to compose good music. I know tons of people that are amazing musicians that couldnt write a tune for their life.
