incredibly dull band

They nicked it from a band called Spirit who they toured with a year or so before the big song was written.  Search for a song called Taurus.  You know where to look.  Mind you Zep nicked almost everything.  Good artists borrow, great artists steal.

Pray tell me, which fine festival is one referring to, and what correlation has this on the progressions of James Page?

A list of some of the songs Zep stole from other artists:

    "Babe I'm Gonna Leave You" - A folk song by Anne Bredon, this was originally credited as "traditional, arranged by Jimmy Page," then "words and music by Jimmy Page," and then, following legal action, "Bredon/Page/Plant."
    "Black Mountain Side" - uncredited version of a traditional folk tune previously recorded by Bert Jansch.
    "Bring It On Home" - the first section is an uncredited cover of the Willie Dixon tune (as performed by the imposter Sonny Boy Williamson).
    "Communication Breakdown" - apparently derived from Eddie Cochran's "Nervous Breakdown."
    "Custard Pie" - uncredited cover of Bukka White's "Shake 'Em On Down," with lyrics from Sleepy John Estes's "Drop Down Daddy."
    "Dazed And Confused" - uncredited cover of the Jake Holmes song (see The Above Ground Sound Of Jake Holmes).
    "Hats Off To (Roy) Harper" - uncredited version of Bukka White's "Shake 'Em On Down."
    "How Many More Times" - Part one is an uncredited cover of the Howlin' Wolf song (available on numerous compilations). Part two is an uncredited cover of Albert King's "The Hunter."
    "In My Time Of Dying" - uncredited cover of the traditional song (as heard on Bob Dylan's debut).
    "The Lemon Song" - uncredited cover of Howlin' Wolf's "Killing Floor" - Wolf's publisher sued Zeppelin in the early 70s and settled out of court.
    "Moby Dick" - written and first recorded by Sleepy John Estes under the title "The Girl I Love," and later covered by Bobby Parker.
    "Nobody's Fault But Mine" - uncredited cover of the Blind Willie Johnson blues.
    "Since I've Been Lovin' You" - lyrics are the same as Moby Grape's "Never," though the music isn't similar.
    "Stairway To Heaven" - the main guitar line is apparently from "Taurus" by Spirit.
    "White Summer" - uncredited cover of Davey Graham's "She Moved Through The Fair."
    "Whole Lotta Love" - lyrics are from the Willie Dixon blues "You Need Love."

zzzzzzzzzzzz - they weren't 'stolen' - they were their versions - in the main,credits were given to original writers/artists.

Stolen or not, they're still one of the greatest bands of all time.
