Lots of blues men.
But how? Just because they weren't given proper credit?
Because i'd take that any ole day of the week over what happened to Ashcroft. I'd put them in the same category as the Staples Singers from my original post. They should have received some credit and some royalties from the Stones' version of their song. But if I'm given two options:
(a) not receive money from an artist that ripped off a song I wrote that wasn't making me any money anyway, or
(b) Taken millions of dollars from my pocket, and put it in the pocket of some a-hole who didn't do a thing.
I'll go with a.

they weren't given proper credit at the time, but from what i've read, zeppelin made very substantial financial settlements with all of them...if that's not the case, i'm sure someone will mention it...i also think the exposure brought a lot of lesser known musicians to the public eye (at least to the attention of a lot of people who would have never known to seek them out), which was definitely a positive for many of them.
