Spirit was a favorite of mine, and I saw them in concert a couple of times.

That album was their best, their oldest member was born in 1923.

“Cassidy was instantly recognizable by his shaven head (hence his nickname “Mr. Skin”) and his fondness for wearing black. He was around twenty years older than the rest of the group (born in 1923). His earlier career was primarily in jazz and included stints with Cannonball Adderley, Gerry Mulligan, Roland Kirk, Thelonious Monk and Lee Konitz. He was a founding member of Rising Sons with Taj Mahal and Ry Cooder.”

California showed Page the chord progression according to some discussions. Spirit and Page often traveled together and spent time together. The last time I saw Spirit was as Mile Square Park in LA in October 1991. It has been common knowledge that Taurus was the spark that began Page and Plant's STH . After all of this time I can't believe that someone is suing LZ for this, Cassidy and California didn't think it that important. Locke, California, Cassidy have all passed on and Ferguson and Andes or the two remaining members so I wonder how they feel about this?
