Okay, assuming we throw out the idea that Led Zeppelin went looking for a
Daltrey look-alike in the first place, did Roger's style and costume
afterward affect the way Robert Plant presented himself? That's my basic
point--that Roger set up a successful image that many rockers followed
afterward.
It does hold water that Jim Morrison was earlier, but just performing
bare-chested isn't what I'm looking for--it's the male-centered model.
Seems like Morrison's performances had a different feel to them than Roger.
