Dazed and Confused - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dazed_and_Confused_(song) Black Mountain Side - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_Mountain_Side https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Led_Zeppelin_songs_written_or_inspired_by_others They may have got away with Stairway, but given all the circumstances surrounding it, I was extremely surprised that they did. And I love Stairway, it remains my favourite Zep track. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it’s listed as being written by Jimmy Page. It wasn’t. FWIW, Page is referred to in my band circles as Jimmy Plaige. 😉😂 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IMO the LZ version goes on way too long without ever going anywhere, clocking in over 7 mins Good version. To be fair, the OP version did have to fit in many more artists, hence the 7 mins. If you measure it in mins per artist then the original doesn't seem so pithy in comparison 😉. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris_b Posted February 24, 2022 Share Posted February 24, 2022 I don't think it got as far as court, but Led Zeppelin had to pay Willie Dixon a lot of money for Whole Lotta Love, which plagiarises his song You Need Love. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
