AC/DC are one of many Led Zeppelin copies, but I voted for them because I like the energy of the Bon Scott-era albums (especially Let There Be Rock). Led Zeppelin may be the originals, but I can take them or leave them.

In what sense do you consider them a copy of LZ? I don't consider them a complete copy of them at all to be honest.

Led Zeppelin's You Shook Me, from the first album, is the prototype for AC/DC and a lot other bands too. AC/DC even use the whole line, 'You shook me all night long.' It's not Zeppelin's song, it's by Willie Dixon, but they crank it up. The Jeff Beck Group covered You Shook Me for Truth, which heavily influenced the first Led Zeppelin album (if not all of them).
