I was reading about a law suite bought against led Zeppelin by the family of the writer of a song called Taurus, by Spirit , so I listened to it on Alexa . You can certainly hear the same chord progression utilised at the start of Stairway , but I thought there was an extra edge on led Zeppelin ,not evident in Taurus . There must be many songs , that borrow or enlarge on earlier works, so that only the most obvious plagiarising should win damages ?
