Was "Stairway to Heaven" a ripoff of the song " Taurus" by Spirit

13. I don't know what your problem is

I did a little more research. This lawsuit was brought about by the Wolfe Trustee; Michael Skidmore at the suggestion of a major sleazeball attorney: Francis Malofiy. Actually calling Mr. Malofiy a major sleazeball is being kind. The Trustee and the Attorney were the only ones who would really benefit financially from this bogus lawsuit.

Do you understand or know anything about music or are you just seeing Led Zeppelin as part of the 1% .

Here ya' go Sparky. Click on the play button for the first song listed, Sonata for Guitar, Violin, and Continuo (written a few hundred years ago) and take a listen. Tell me what you hear:

I also find it humorous in the lawsuit that they said Randy Wolfe turned Led Zeppelin onto the Theremin. I have one myself. Run it through a Mellotron Filter - crazy awesome sound.

Did learn something though. Randy Wolfe got the name Randy California from Jimi Hendrix. I didn't know that.
