re: Cliche? Maybe, but Led Zeppelin IV is a fantastic album...

Ummmm.... they did do that. Led Zeppelin I is practically all covers played almost precisely how the blues bands played them. OK, on Led Zep II they at least changed the lyrics of You Need Love to Whole Lotta Love, but it's the same damn song. Their rip off of Willie dixon wasn't even close to subtle.
I disagree that they were played precisely as the blues band had played them. Zeppelin turned every element of energy and vigor and swagger in those songs up to 11. The end result hardly compares to the originals at all. Oh the lyrics were the same? Who cares? Blues lyrics are always the same. Those songs have all been recycled 1,000 times. Plant didn't sing them the same way at all anyway.

This is the most intelligent offering from this whole thread. Who played it first? Willie Dixon? Sonny Boy? Blind Melon Chitlin? Lightnin Hopkins? Noone will ever know who played it first. Zep turned these songs into rock, not bluesy drunken meandering songs..
