DaveTV1 Posted April 12, 2016 Share Posted April 12, 2016 I've heard the song, and it was "sampled". Robert Plant has admitted in court testimony that he owned the album in his collection. http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/thr-esq/plagiarism-lawsuit-jimmy-page-describes-869928 . I wasn't sure if this case would go to trial, because of the statute of limitations. If anything I think they should be rewarded $1,599,987 the same amount that Bright Tunes was awarded for the "My Sweet Lord" vs. "He's So Fine" lawsuit. I hope it's not the $7.2 million that Marvin Gaye was awarded from Pharrell and Robin Thicke sampling "Got to Give It Up" vs. "Blurred Lines".
