The biggest controversy with Led Zepp was their first album they undeniably borrowed extensively from other artists and didn't list the song writing credits on the first pressing, however later pressings of the debut album did give credit to the original songwriters.
This is a common complaint, for me I don't care if they did borrow a few riffs here and there, every song they ever recorded became their own, totally different than the original, and in the music industry everyone borrows from somebody, you just have to look back and dig into the history to find some similarities.
I agree about Nirvana, I like Nevermind, but I was never a huge fan of theirs.
