Of course, you think about the thousands of songs that use the "Elmore James" opening slide riff for "Dust My Broom" (blues lovers know which one I'm talking about)...his estate's lawyers could make a career out of chasing those perpetrators down until Kingdom come.

...and remember John Fogarty getting sued for sounding like himself? :roll:

Funny that you mention Elmore James - he was known for signing exclusive contracts with at least two record labels then recording exactly the same songs for both labels.

Love - Forever Changes
Side A track 6 -She comes in Colours = Like a Rainbow Rolling Stones -Satanic majesties
Side B all -Revelation = Going Home - Rolling Stones -Aftermath
Four Sail
Robert Montgomery = Eleanor Rigby?

It's a Beautiful Day

Bombay Calling = Child in Time - Deep Purple
Don and Dewey = Wring That Neck -Deep Purple

Both the Stones and Purple have acknowledged the sources of inspiration.

then 20years on came the KLF and all hell broke loose, but then genius comes in many guises and sometimes it's good to re-invent things.

Pachelbels lawyers would sue everyone
