Led Zeppelin like.. ALL ...other young Brits were not stimulated with the music in England so they couldnt get enough of American blues songs that were coming to their shores,they played these songs and did their own versions of each song they loved,if you listen to any BLUES song that Led Zep covered, it sounds nothing like the original and their first album gave credits to the blues artist they imitated in any way.Led zep regardless of the HATERS was and still is the best Rock and Roll band ever created,with everyone in the band being extremely talented.I grew up in that era,and they were the Gods of Rock and Roll
