Jury To Decide If Led Zeppelin's 'Stairway to Heaven' Riff Was Stolen

A U.S. jury will decide whether the opening section of rock band Led
Zeppelin's "Stairway to Heaven," one of the most famous songs in rock
history, was lifted from a lesser-known U.S. band called Spirit.
Zeppelin's lead singer Robert Plant and guitarist Jimmy Page will face
a copyright trial next month after a US district judge in Los Angeles
ruled that the 1971 release deserves a closer listen.

Patrice Howard reports from Los Angeles.
