In June 2010 , Holmes filed a lawsuit in United States District Court , alleging copyright infringement and naming Page as a co-defendant . The suit was " dismissed with prejudice " on January 17 , 2012 , after an undisclosed settlement between Page and Holmes was reached out of court in the fall of 2011 . Subsequent Led Zeppelin albums , such as '' Celebration Day '' ( 2012 ) and the remastered and deluxe editions of the group 's debut album ( 2014 ) , expanded the songwriter 's credit for " Dazed and Confused " to " By Page – Inspired by Jake Holmes . " Author Luis Rey analyzes a 1975 live version of the song by dividing it into sections or stages : " Dazed and Confused " was performed on every Led Zeppelin concert tour up to and including their 1975 shows at Earls Court . It was then removed from their live set , although Page continued to perform parts of the bowed guitar segment during solo spots on subsequent tours , as preludes to " Achilles Last Stand " ( 1977 tour ) and " In the Evening " ( Knebworth 1979 and Tour Over Europe 1980 )
