Zeppelin stole, (or "re-imagined"), everything they ever played.
Check out the opening drum lick from "Keep A Knockin'" by Little Richard,
and Led's "Rock And Roll"...actually the whole song is derived from
"Knockin'".
It's one thing to derive, homage, or base...it's another to yoink every
lick, lyric, and chord sequence...
...and while I'm at it, Noddy Holder was the great Brit screamer, Moon was
the great Brit drummer, McCartney the great Brit Bassist, and Jeff Beck, the
great Brit guitarist..
