Influences on Led ZeppelinIt's difficult to pick the main influences on Led Zeppelin, becauseeach member of the band had a diverse background of musicaltaste, and each member was in turn influenced by differentmusicians and musical groups.

The band was deeply rootedin blues style, while incorporating many other genres in theirsongs as well.BackgroundMusicanalysisMusic styleLegacyInfluencesPoliticsReferences

Muddy Waters was a very importantpost World War II musician. Herevived the blues after the harshconflict and helped preserve theAmerican blues culture. This wasextremely influential to LedZeppelin since their main roots areblues. Without a strong figuresuch as Muddy Waters to revive theblues, Led Zeppelin may not havebeen what they were.BackgroundMusicanalysisMusic styleLegacyInfluencesPoliticsReferences

Skip James was a blues artist who wasaround long before Muddy Waters'career. His blues music wascreated before World War IIstarted, but he was laterrediscovered in the 1960's. Hissongs were ahead of their time inthe sense that he used falsetto andhad his own unique styleregardless of the fact that hestarted playing in the early 1920's.His unique style in turninfluenced blues and came back inthe 60's, right before Led Zeppelinformed.BackgroundMusicanalysisMusic styleLegacyInfluencesPoliticsReferences
