The trial of the century continues on appeal!

I've done "Stairway" at gigs and I'm sorry, but I don't hear anything that reminds me of it in Taurus.
I was getting a "Love is Blue"vibe in some parts though. Best Les

Didn't the lead singer of Spirit come out and say he didn't think it sounds the same at all?
I understand it's not him suing but geeze, seems like this should have been brought up decades ago. |

G'day!

To me, there's not enough there to represent what LZ did with Stairway. Stairway is in a whole class by itself!

I hear a noticeable similarity, but in my humble unqualified opinion not enough to justify a lawsuit. As Baz stated, that portion of the intro that's similar isn't even the best part of the intro in Stairway. And what makes Stairway so seminal is not from that small bit. I think Taurus is looking for a free ride on LZ's work, which makes them the real thief.
