Sweet's Action may be the dad for Cheap Trick's Lookout.

"Living Zoo" off the new Built to Spill = "Strange" by Galaxie 500 sped up.

A little more vague, but this entire album and the first few Pink Floyd albums. Mostly bits of Astronomy Domine, Set the Controls, Barrett era jamming in general. phpBB [media]

The track, composed by guitarist/singer Randy California, was recorded in November 1967.[1] It has been noticed that Jimmy Page borrowed the descending guitar figure from "Taurus" for Led Zeppelin's signature tune "Stairway to Heaven".[2] Zeppelin opened for Spirit in an early American tour, leaving little doubt that Led Zeppelin had heard the Spirit song before Stairway to Heaven was written.Check out Davy Graham "Cry Me A River" which predates both. 1957 or something.
