The major difference between Page & Plant and Jagger & Richards was Page & Plant stole mainly from those outside of their band, while the Glimmers stole directly from their bandmates
Very true. Although the Stones did steal from others a little. They originally credited LIV to themselves and,I think, "Stop Breaking Down" as well, although those were later credited correctly. They also thought that they could get away with stealing Fred McDowell's "You Gotta Move" because he was dead, until Fred decided that news of his death was greatly premature, sued and won. But yes, the Glimmers mostly stole from their own band mates.
that's why they got away with it while Page & Plant to this day still don't. When your bandmates come up with new music and present it to you, and you take that music and put your name on it only, there is no way to prove that for the others as to what happened (as it becomes a 'he said, she said' deal)
Again, very true. There are Stones fans who believe that all these claims by other band members are nothing but exageration, sour grapes and jealousy, and that the Glimmers did write everything that has their names on it. I have seen some very hotly debated threads about this on other boards (one in particular).
