The last time I listened to them was right before I learned they stole most of their hit songs from other musicians. They sicken me now for doing such an underhanded thing.
Correction: Early Led Zeppelin borrowed popular tunes from Blues songs and rearranged them for a harder, edgier feel. By Led Zeppelin II the band were more adept at songwriting and relied less on covering old music. "Home Of The Electric Blues", Chicago, 6 April 1977. Research, don't regurgitate.
Okay, I edited my first post to 'borrowed' instead of 'stole'. It doesn't change the fact that they waited for many years to change who the songs were really written by on the inserts, coincidentally after proof and lawsuits started showing up. For that I think they are scum, except Bonham (may he rest in peace) since can do no wrong in my mind.
If you like a band that road on the backs of others to fame and fortune, good for you.
Good day sir.
