There's a long-time music industry guy named Denny Somach who is exploring the subject of Led Zeppelin "borrowing" songs from other sources and taking credit, particularly the first album. Heappeared on the Howard Stern show a month or two ago and presented some pretty interesting audio clips to support his claims.
You can read a lot of this (song by song, page by page) at his site: http://www.classicrockcentral.com/classic_rock_photo_gallery.cfm?fid=9&orderID=2
I'm no scholar on this, but it's a pretty interesting subject.
