Led Zeppelin, Godfathers of the Remix?

I wonder. I see to recall an interview with Robert Plant--something I saw on PBS I believe; maybe from that Rock & Roll series they produced 15 years ago?--in which he said, if I remember correctly, "Everything goes back to Son House; since them, we've all just been beggars and thieves." An exaggeration, perhaps, but I guess there's some truth to it.
