Mothership - The Inspiration

So I brought the album “Mothership” a week ago and all I can say is WOW. (Back-story - historically I’ve only listened to Hip Hop). So now I have a problem, I've opened a door to a whole new world and now I need guidance. Please help. What artist and or album would you recommend that is along the lines of Led Zeppelin to someone who is a newbie such as myself? Thanks!

Go to Pandora and create a Led Zeppelin radio station and see what else comes up. Pandora is free and really pretty cool.

Gonna need you some Doors, Radiohead, Tool, reach back in time and grab you some Cream, some Santana, do not ignore the Janis Joplin, the Robin Trower, Jethro Tull, pile on the Pink Floyd, come back closer to today to get some Pearl Jam and some Rage Against the Machine...
Then go buy more Radiohead, and you're set for a month or two :)

White Stripes started out channelling Zep on their first couple of records.

Leafhound-Growers of Mushrooms
Not saying they sound like Zeppelin, but if you dig Zeppelin's sound then you will likely dig Leafhound.

It wasn't easy tracking my copy down at first but I scored at AKA Music in Philly on a random visit with my girlfriend.
Can be had right now at cduniverse for what I paid, $20.
Well worth it IMO.
Cheers & enjoy.

The problem is you started at the top. Like someone without any knowledge of what two channel stereo can do walking into a demo of a $250K system and then wondering what can I get that sounds like that for $3K. Many of the bands folks have listed are truly excellent but there is really only one Zep--IMHO the best rock n' roll band in history.
