Welcome, folks, to plagiarism corner! This week it's the turn of our favourite musical magpies, Led Zeppelin.
"Stairway To Heaven"/"Taurus" (Spirit)
"Dazed And Confused"/"Dazed And Confused" (Jake Holmes)
"Black Mountain Side"/"Black Water Side" (Bert Jansch)
"Whole Lotta Love"/"You Need Lovin" (Willie Dixon)
"Moby Dick (Live)"/ someone on too much cocaine wanking
Not that it's all one-way. Rush's "What You're Doing" is a thinly weiled rip-off of "Heartbreaker", whilst Queen's "Get Down Make Love" is so close to "Whole Lotta Love" it's just a joke. Not that I'd know of course, it's just my brother who listens to prog/metal etc.etc.
Honourable mention here goes to Deep Purple's "Black Night" and The Blues Magoos' "We Ain't Got Nothing Yet".
