Ces derniers temps la polémique sur les "emprunts" du groupe, pour ne pas dire plagiats, est remontée à la surface, avec une accusation du groupe Spirit (qui a joué avec Led Zepp pendant quelques concerts), concernant "Stairway to Heaven".

Jimmy Page s'en défend.
Pour écouter la ressemblance (réelle mais pas si flagrante je trouve), regardez la vidéo :

LED ZEPPELIN guitarist Jimmy Page has dismissed as "ridiculous" a copyright infringement claim against the band by a lawyer for the defunct 1960s group SPIRIT. The attorney recently said SPIRIT plans to file a lawsuit against LED ZEPPELIN arguing that the opening notes of its iconic song "Stairway To Heaven" are too similar to a few notes from SPIRIT's 1968 song "Taurus". "The idea behind this is to make sure that [deceased SPIRIT guitarist] Randy California is given a writing credit on 'Stairway To Heaven'. It's been a long time coming," SPIRIT attorney Francis Malofiy told BloombergBusinessweek.

After being asked about the potential lawsuit by the French publication Liberation, Page called it "ridiculous" and added that he had no further comment on the matter.

"Stairway To Heaven" appears on the album "Led Zeppelin IV", which is due to be reissued in early June as an expanded edition.

In 1997, California told Listener magazine that he thought the song "was a ripoff" of his composition. California died later that year.

"Stairway To Heaven" is said to be one of the most covered rock songs and its worth is estimated to be more than $560 million.

Page recently spoke to The New York Times that LED ZEPPELIN credited Willie Dixon for another of the band's classic songs, "Whole Lotta Love", because "Within the lyrics of it, there's [Dixons's] 'You Need Love,' and there are similarities within the lyrics. Now I'm not pointing a finger at anybody, but I'm just saying that's what happened, and Willie Dixon got credit. Fair enough."

Dr. Charles Fairchild, an American author and senior lecturer in popular music who is part Sydney, Australia's Conservatorium of Music, explained to Fairfax Media that he heard a similarity between "Stairway To Heaven" and "Taurus" in "about 10 seconds" of music. But Fairchild added that he thought the claim was "unlikely to succeed."

"The obvious and only similarity between them is the finger-picked guitar passage that starts off the guitar playing in both songs," Fairchild said. "In the [SPIRIT] version, it starts at 0:43 and in LED ZEPPELIN's it starts off the track. It is that easy, slow descending figure that sounds like a few slow steps down to a nice resting point. This constitutes three measures of music in both songs, which in both cases takes up about 10 seconds or so. However, the two songs go off in completely different directions after this."

He continued: "It seems to me that anyone claiming to have been the first person to have ever written this passage is making quite an ambitious claim. This passage is little more than a stock standard chord progression whose origins would be very difficult to determine. It also happens to be a very easy and satisfying thing to play on any guitar in standard tuning. There are probably a lot of other versions of it out there that would be equally similar."

LED ZEPPELIN and SPIRIT reportedly shared the bill at four concerts in 1968 and 1969.

Ouais, c'est ça, le hasard fait bien les choses, surtout avec Led Zeppelin !

Je serais extrêmement surpris que Page n'ait pas connu cette chanson en écrivant l'intro de Stairway to Heaven. Après, effectivement, ça n'est pas du plagiat non plus. Il faut garder en tête que la remise sur la table de cette histoire vient des "ayant-droits"...

The three titles re-entered the chart within the Top 10, marking the first time an artist had as many titles within the Top 15 at the same time since Whitney Houston scored three in the Top 10 following her death in 2012.

De toute façon, j'ai toujours trouvé que l'intro ne collait pas a la chanson . Je préfère la seconde partie, donc si ça pose problème, ils peuvent peut être la virer

ça donne envie d'acheter toutes ces éditions Deluxe de Led Zeppelin. Pour ma part, je pense que c'est du rock plutôt que du Hard rock.

ça, c'est pas du Hard Rock peut-être ? Quel morceau fabuleux... et une des meilleures parties de batterie de l'histoire du Rock au passage.

@olivier; ça calme cette version live de Achille last stand

personne ne pourra faire mieux, faut que je trouve les 3 derniers en rééditions de toute façon je les ai pas en normal

Quelle complicité entre eux sur scène, pour moi c'est la définition du Hard Rock ce groupe, Lemmy parlait des beatles comme base, je suis ok avec Helter skelter entre autre, mais Led Zeppelin et Black Sabbath (et Aérosmith) ont posés les fondations pour moi.

Le groupe sort un EP 4 titres d'archives de 1975 et 1979 pour l'anniversaire de Physical Graffiti :

LED ZEPPELIN will celebrate the 50th anniversary of its iconic sixth album, "Physical Graffiti", with the release of "Live EP" on 180-gram 12" vinyl, CD and digital formats on September 12.

Also released on the same date will be an updated 50th-anniversary edition of 2015's "Physical Graffiti" Deluxe Edition 3LP vinyl set featuring the Companion Audio disc, now including a new bonus replica "Physical Graffiti" promotional poster (sized 443mm x 610mm).

The new "Live EP" features live recordings of "In My Time Of Dying" and "Trampled Under Foot" from Earl's Court, 1975, alongside "Sick Again" and "Kashmir" from Knebworth, 1979. These live performances were originally released on the 2003 "Led Zeppelin" DVD and appear on CD, vinyl and digital formats for the very first time.

Released on February 24, 1975 in the U.S. (and four days later in the U.K.),"Physical Graffiti" immediately achieved platinum sales status and has recently been certified 17 times platinum. Its commercial success was equaled by its critical reception.

Generally regarded as one of the greatest double albums of all time, the original 15 tracks represent a creative tour de force that explores the band's dynamic musical range, from the driving rock of "Custard Pie" to the exotic construction of "Kashmir" and the funky groove of "Trampled Under Foot".

LED ZEPPELIN singer Robert Plant states: "It goes from one extreme to the other but at the same time, it's very evident that it's ZEPPELIN… I love the album and it does work as a double album. There are some real humdinger, roaring tracks."

"Physical Graffiti" was comprised of new compositions including "Kashmir", "Sick Again", "Ten Years Gone", "The Wanton Song", "Custard Pie", "Trampled Under Foot" and "In My Time Of Dying", as well as unreleased songs from earlier album sessions: "Houses Of The Holy", "The Rover", "Black Country Woman" (from "Houses Of The Holy" sessions),"Down By The Seaside", "Boogie With Stu", "Night Flight" (from Untitled, a.k.a. "Led Zeppelin IV", sessions),and "Bron-Yr-Aur" (from "Led Zeppelin III" sessions).

LED ZEPPELIN guitarist Jimmy Page began the initial work at his home studio in Plumpton, Sussex, England, in the summer and autumn of 1973, with the first recording sessions taking place that October at Headley Grange, using Ronnie Lane's Mobile Studio. Further sessions at Headley continued in January 1974. Additional overdubs were recorded at Olympic Studios, where Page completed mixing of the album in July 1974.

Page says: "We had enough material for one and a half LPs, so I figured, 'Let's put out a double and use some of the material we'd done previously but never released'. I always thought the sequencing of an album was really important and that was part of my rôle as the producer."

"Physical Graffiti" was not only the band's first double LP, it was also the first release on their new label, Swan Song, which launched in May 1974. The album's release was announced on November 13, 1974.

LED ZEPPELIN bassist John Paul Jones states: "I'm a big fan of 'Physical Graffiti'. [It] was very wide ranging. It probably was a pinnacle."

Following the 10-week North American tour that ran from January through March 1975, LED ZEPPELIN played five sold-out nights at London's Earl's Court in May, 1975. Initially, three shows were announced, with another two added after the tremendous demand for tickets.

LED ZEPPELIN drummer John Bonham previously said: "On the last night at Earl's Court we played 'Heartbreaker', 'Black Dog', and a bit from 'Out On The Tiles'. With the songs from 'Physical Graffiti' we've got such a wide range of material."

The band headlined both nights of the Knebworth festival, which took place at Knebworth House, Hertfordshire, England on August 4 and 11, 1979. These were LED ZEPPELIN's first live dates since their 1977 North American tour, and their first U.K. dates since the Earl's Court 1975 shows.

"Live EP" track listing:

CD / digital

01. In My Time Of Dying (Earl's Court - 1975)
02. Trampled Under Foot (Earl's Court - 1975)
