F.O. Row Peter Puffer, you left off...
Best riff from 60s Zep is Whole Lotta Love.
House of The Rising Sun should be on the list.

Day Tripper - The Beatles
Or Heartbreaker. I could have gone either way.
I might break this out into riff of the year type series. Still trying to get my reads down.

Sunshine of Your Love - Cream
That Yardbirds riff is a complete ripoff of a Beatles song, I just can't remember the name of it...I am not a Beatles guysm, but I know most of their stuff in general terms.

Day Tripper - The Beatles
Not even close to the mark, Pal. No Beatles rip off here whatsoever.
It was Jeff Beck trying to mimic the sound of a sitar. The Beatles didn't even use a sitar on a record until about 6 months after Heart Full of Soul was released.

Sunshine of Your Love - Cream
Very similar, IMO. First thing I thought of when I heard the Yardbirds tune was "I Feel Fine" by The Beatles.

Day Tripper - The Beatles
I guess there's a slight similarity but I'm not hearing it the degree you are. Way different tone, tempo, progression, etc.
I'm proud of you, bud, however for pulling some mid 60's examples and music did exist before 1978.

Agree on both.

Day Tripper from the list, I’m sure you have this one hot in the bullpen…
I continue to be amused by the expressions and movements of Keith Moon when they were lip-syncing on the Telly BITD…

To add to @BleachedAnusDawg talking points, "I can't explain" is a total rip off and "You really got me now" which Pete has admitted.
