Led Zepplin - When The Levee Breaks

O.K. as long as you recognize LZ claimed they wrote it, but they in fact stole it, like they stole almost everything they recorded:

""When the Levee Breaks" is a blues song written and first recorded by husband and wife Kansas Joe McCoy and Memphis Minnie in 1929. The song is in reaction to the upheaval caused by the Great Mississippi Flood of 1927.

It was famously re-worked by English rock group Led Zeppelin as the last song on their fourth album, released in 1971. The lyrics in Led Zeppelin's version were based on the original recording..."

read a little further and you will find that Led Zep credited McCoy and Minnie on the album.
