Exhibit K.1:

The way Pagey and Plant roared with laughter when The Deviants came offstage after causing a riot at Exeter Town Hall in 1969

When Zeppelin then came on they got hailed with the very same roar of disapproval and collective heaving of beer mugs at their heads

Exhibit L.1:

The absolute funk that lodged itself into the grooves of about 1/4 of 'Phys Graf" (Namely, 'Trampled Underfoot", "The Rover", "THE WANTON SONG" and "Custard Pie")

Exhibit M.1:

(Just off the M.666)

The beginning of 'Stairway" in the concert fim, "Song Remains The Same":

when Plant gives the peace sign then turns it around (giving the 'V's) and then remembers he's in New York City and nobody knows the significance of that gesture so just quickly brushes it off

When they do that dactylic hexameter composition brouha of Achilles Last Stand, and the way Bonham amd JPJ GALLOP it along barely controlled, and then that six-beat delayed carpet bombing drum roll which opens the field for Jimmy Pages freegliding acidic open chords. Plant sounds as transported as ever " from the UR-URH-UHHR-ur-ur-uhuhur-urrrth!"

because they recorded the debut album in two days, not two years.

Exhibit N.1:

First calendar year they were together (1969) they recorded their first two albums and toured incessantly

Loads of bands (used to) be on the road all the time, but rarely did it lay a groundwork for such massive appreciation as it did for Zeppelin (Cue photo of audience from Tampa, 1973 -- 56,800 people gathered to just see Zeppelin...and no supporting act)

Exhibit Q.1:

The over phased/delayed and frayed intro guitar to "Nobody's Fault But Mine" AND Percy's on-his-tippytoes final vocal stutter of: "Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah--body's fault"

Kick ass
