Also you have to remember that parents music is pretty influential on kids, people of my generation will have had parents who grew up at the time of Led Zeppelin and are still really into them.
Mostly I'm referring to the overall sound. A band that sounded like LedZep or the Beatles today wouldn't sell. Of course they can be influenced by them, but they're not going to copy their sound like bands in their own day tried to. E.g., the Beach Boys were pretty much the Beatles writing songs about surfing.
