interesting, but failing to see the difference between critical disdain for early Zep and Nickleback seems like a lack on insight. The early critics of Zep were simply wrong. Zep's songs didn't all sound alike, they just weren't used to consistently loud/hard music. And their interpretation of black blues was the first interpretation in rock that took that blues and made something uniquely rock out of it. The Yardbirds or early Stones fit more accurately the characterization of playing the blues in blackface.
