Hi guys - I've been learning a couple of my favorite Led Zeppelin songs. They tend to be the more obscure ones.
There's a couple of 'cliche' sounding songs they do, and I was wondering if anyone can share what styles, grooves, songs or bands that came before them sound most similar. In particular, the songs are:
1. Hot Dog
2. South Bound Suarez
3. Down by the Seaside
In fact I'm often impressed at the overall band sound and instrumentation these guys came up with.
For the early albums the blues influence is pretty obvious especially the first 2 albums. But they seemed to really put a unique sound and stamp on many of their songs. Some that sound really fresh to me given what came before are Over the Hills and Far Away, the Ocean, Dancin' Days...oh, lots of others. But maybe I'm just not as familiar with what came before.
What is your opinion of them ?

Hot Dog is clearly a Rockabilly Influence while Down By the Seaside is a Neal Young style. Think Down by the River. I’m hearing a kind of shuffle with Southbound Suarez.
Before Led Zepplin started recording, pick most any top studio recording done in Britain in the 60s and Jimmy Page was the studio guitarist, so he was steeped in every influence there was.

The roots of Elvis and the Rock-a-billy genre are related
to British Isles folk; thinking -- fiddles, clogging, uptempo,
that kind of thing. The "British Invasion" of the 60's and 70's
had elements of "back at ya" with influence of Chuck Berry and
Jerry Lee. Led Zepplin captured the American and British youth
market in a way that hadn't been done before. One influence that
sunk into the genes was Eric Clapton, esp. white noise.

Ahhh - now I hear some of the Neil Young. Thanks for sharing. Ed, I'm familiar with British Invasion, Chuck Berry, Jerry Lee, but who are some of the big names in British Isle's folk. And Keith - who are the Rockabilly guys I should check out ?

And Keith - who are the Rockabilly guys I should check out ? First and foremost, Carl Perkins. Then early Elvis Presley, Eddie Cochran, Johnny Horton, Buddy Holly, and Jerry Lee Lewis.

Joe: I was thinking of European folk music of Britain, Ireland, Italy, Norway, Spain, Central Europe, predating audio recordings, heard in videos such as this one: https://youtu.be/pojy5d7lwtY The songs are often traditional, not associated with individual writers or performers.
