He may well of Stole a Mars Bar he certainly wouldn't have come up with a recipe of his own;-) but no they weren't just influenced by some blues masters they stole their work and even admitted it. Hence the perfectly acceptable word thief.

Had to laugh about the Mars bar.

OK, accepting everything you say, if they "stole" a few songs in the early days, they still wrote nearly fifty original ones, many which were classics. I think the issue is more they didn't acknowledge them, prpbably because they didn't want to pay the artist royalties

That's why I said thief as opposed to shite musicians.

I find them massively overrated but that's just personal taste.
 
I wonder where that painting is now.
Said to come from a junk shop near Reading but I don't buy that.
I also think the drawing in the gatefold sleeve is Page's work, not 'Switzerland based' Barrington Colby.
What with the symbols and everything it looks like they've attempted to create a mystery out of the whole thing.
