plant might have written some lyrics but there are 8 songs on the first album with vocals and just 1 of them doesn't include portions of lyrics from other songs "good times, bad times". thats not saying the entire lyrically content of the songs are borrowed lyrics so sure he could have added his own lyrics
Never really thought about it, but what portions of the lyrics to Communication Breakdown were borrowed/stolen from someone else and from what song?

Was wondering the same about "Your Time Is Gonna Come."
has some lines from a ray charles song "i believe in my soul" so i'm guessing plant wrote the rest of the lyrics

Actually, just two lines (one verbatim) sung once in each song....
One of these days and it won't be long,
You're gonna look for me and I'll be gone
vs.
One of these days and it won't be long,
You'll look for me but baby, I'll be gone
...it's a Page/Jones composition with Page likely writing the lyrics.

those aren't the real writing credits. plant was unable to take any credits at the time it was released. I don't need to see the credits to know typical plant lyrics

It's actually more of a gray area with this one, as old interviews and books indicate Page...but, yes, they are very "Plant-ish" lyrics, so he would make more sense.
Safe to say, Ray Charles doesn't deserve a co-writing credit.

In the case of LZ it became quite systematic.

Every high school in America has a garage band that can perform Immigrant Song better than that! It's almost as if Percy goes out of his way every so often to demonstrate why he'll never ever do another Zeppelin tour or even concert. He can't. Even tuned down a full step to E like that.
