It’s not about trivia it’s about real understanding

Nope. Cameron has pretty much free access to Zep songs because he was the first Rolling Stone writer to be favorable towards the band. He was invited to tour with them in 1973 and 1975 and then went on to be the president of their record label Swan Song.

Here's the answer to #4.

When LZI was first released on vinyl, How Many More Times was listed as being 4:27 long. Why?

Real understanding started way back in 1970 and continues to this day. The trivia is a nice little side hobby.

You posted it as an example of why Zeppelin is NOT blues based.

That song is blues inspired - and mostly the lyrics. Exactly which part of the recorded music sounds like blues to you?

Zep leaned heavily on the blues for the two albums recorded in 1969. But they had already planted the seeds for their own thing by then.

There's an excellent essay by Robert Palmer where he dissects the music of Zeppelin, and how it compared to the blues as their songwriting evolved.

Exactly what point are you trying to make anyway?

You might as well face it, you're addicted to trivium.

My point is that you don’t have a deep understanding of LZ’s music.

So you're aping another person's opinion?
