Get the Led Out – Stairway to the Sound

Like the two ‘Lonesome & Blue’ compilation albums containing the ‘Rhythm ‘n Blues’ & ‘Rock ‘n Roll’ music that inspired Keith and Mick, fellow Londoners Led Zeppelin were also fans of the rich Afro-American jazz and blues culture. They were Inspired by Muddy Waters’ Mississippi blues, Robert Johnson’s Delta blues and the upcoming Rock ‘n Roll from the likes as Little Richard and Eddie Cochran. When the Afro-American Jazz and Blues scene gave birth to the Rock ‘n Roll in America, on this side of the Atlantic during the early to mid-1960s, the ‘Mods’ pre-paired a British Invasion with The Stones, The Who, The Cream and Led Zeppelin inventing and introducing the ‘British (white) Blues’.
