Blues is even the spiritual *father* of New Orleans which is in
turn
the ancestor of all forms of modern jazz. I'm not sure if Zeppelin itself is a
father of something, though ;-)
A case could be made that they invented heavy metal. Although you could also
make a case that heavy metal wasn't truly distinct from hard rock until
Ozzy and Black Sabbath pulled in the neoclassical stuff... ;)
