What Mike said.

Revision to my last post...it is a unique sequence of sounds. I have no doubt that Page lifted.

Also...point out the natural sequence in the first 3 albums that led to Stairway. I don't hear one. The only antecedent I hear in the song that accords with Page's natural inclinations is the solo. I hear that modality in "SInce I Been Loving You"...on LZ3.

And John....if you were to play "You Really Got Me" on hapsicord and claim it as yours...that would be plagiarism.
