Sure, but read this first:
pla·gia·rism
–noun
1. the unauthorized use or close imitation of the language and thoughts of another author and the representation of them as one's own original work.
Led Zeppelin played other people's songs and did not give (at least) partial credit to the original songwriters. Whether or not the songs were rearranged is irrelevant. Whether or not the original artists are receiving royalty cheques is irrelevant. By definition, Led Zeppelin were plagiarists.
