"There's a time in life for Hoagy Carmichael. There's a time in life for Claude Debussy. There's a time in life for Jerry Lee Lewis. There's a time in life for Destiny's Child. All these things have their moment." ~Elvis Costello

An excellent wider-picture exposition of what is at issue in the recently concluded lawsuit involving Led Zeppelin’s “Stairway to Heaven” and Spirit’s “Taurus”.
