Ripping off riffs and stuff doesn't bother me either. People have forgotten how much shit even The Beatles copied from early US rock and roll bands.
>>
>>71573132

Yeah it doesn't really matter. I was kinda mind blown at first when I found out artists do this though. Here I am trying to create everything from scratch like a tool because I thought my favorites did the same.

It really made them less godlike to me and something more within my reach. I still don't ripoff other artists though because it's just become a habit not to and it's more fun creating something myself
>>
>>71573232
I think most unashamedly do it just because they love a certain melody so much and want to play it live. Then hope the artist you ripped from doesn't sue your ass.

Like if I was ever a decent songwriter and guitarist I'd copy and somehow incorporate the intro to Voodoo Child in a heartbeat.

You're right not every Zeppelin song, bu here are 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."

stealing would imply that the """"originals"""" aren't vastly different in comparison to the other song in nearly every single case (especially led zeppelin's case)

>b-b-b-but they clearly used parts of other music or songs
There is literally nothing wrong with this.

All musicians use things like chord progressions, scales, styles of playing, instruments, pryda snares, samples and so on that they had no hand in creating/originating.

"ripoffs" are a meme
