Wasn't Jimmy Page involved in that recording? Concerning distortion it's
been there since the first amps and electric guitars, it just depends on if
you crank the amp or not. Who invented it? Maybe some obscure bluesguy. Of
course there are other ways to get other kinds of distortion, preamps,
fuzzboxes or holes in the speakers.

Not to forget Dave Davies, who pretty much invented rock guitar distortion
by punching little holes in his speaker cone for the recording of "You
Really Got Me".
