Did Led Zeppelin Steal ‘Stairway to Heaven’?


Recommended Posts

Well, the manager then sued Fogerty for his solo stuff sounding too much like the songs he owned - the ones that Fogerty wrote for CCR! Hahaha

 

I remember that. it was back in the mid-80's. I believe the two songs focused on in that case were Fogerty's new 'The Old Man Down The Road' vs Creedence's 'Run Through The Jungle'.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure that's right. Luckily, the dbag manager lost this one!

 

And, Fogerty is back singing CCR songs in concert. I"ll be seeing him in August.

Sorry, I have an article.

I dispute the article. My thesis most every genre music invented the past 200 years was created in America

 

Son House, Charlie Patton, Skip James, Robert Johnson wrote the book on blues/rock and roll.

 

Chuck Berry invented rock and roll

 

Detroit invented motown, techno, and punk.

 

Country and Bluegrass.

 

Hiphop

MC 5, Stooges invented hard rock.

 

Velvet Underground invented alternative and punk.

 

Jazz was invented Congo Square New Orleans

 

Is Subteranean Homesick Blues the first rap song? Or Rapture by Blondie? Beach Boys were the first to sample. I could go on, but I am short on time.

 

Cheers
