From JUDY to GV . . .

[PongHit]

     It recently dawned on me that the old tune, "Judy" -- one of the earliest B-Boys recordings -- shares some things in common, stylistically, with what was to come in the famous B-Boy cannon -- even "Good Vibrations"....
 
     Example: 'perfume/air' in these lyrics...
 
     From "JUDY":

     "Judy, I smell love's perfume in the air"

...& from "Good Vibrations," many years later:
 
     "On the wind that lifts her perfume through the air"

     Pure coincidence?

     PongHit thinks not . . .  Seems like, for all the dynamic changes in the music over the years, one could make a case that many of the elemental components of the BBoy music was fairly consistent, for the most part...

Interesting link between the two. In the 60s it seemed like five years of events happened each year. It was little over four years between the cuts yet they sound decades apart sonically. Judy is simple but somewhat unfairly overlooked. Brian's performance is energetid and Mike's backup is a good fit.

Has anyone else noticed that "A Thing or Two" sounds awfully like "Do It Again"?

I think that it cannot be excluded over the years that some songs of a Band sound similar.

Oh yeah...I remember a thread I started back on the old Wheeler board about  recycling melodies (i.e Little Children= Mountain of Love, Island Girl =one of the Pretenders' tunes that I can never remember the name of).

Rocker recently said somewhere on this board that there was a similarity between Island Girl and Everyday by Buddy Holly. And in my opinion it's quite true.
