Re: Red Hot Chili Peppers ripping off Tom Petty
[ QUOTE ]
I noticed this. I also thought "Dani California" was a little too close both sonically and lyrically to "Californication," but it's impossible to plagiarize yourself. [/ QUOTE ] not true, john fogerty was accused of plagerizing himself for 2 different record labels |

Re: Red Hot Chili Peppers ripping off Tom Petty
I thought the guitar solo in Dani California was an aweful lot like Purple Haze by Hendrix.

Re: Red Hot Chili Peppers ripping off Tom Petty
This is stupid.
First off, they are clearly speeding up the tempo on Mary Jane to match that of RHCP's. Furthemore, this is just stupid. |

He's really only using the first 4 notes, and then doing his own lick, and repeating the process a couple times. I wouldn't consider it blatant plagiarism because that lick uses one hand position over 3 strings and is used in the solo. It's not a riff or anything. Also, that lick just happens to sound great.

I would like someone to actually play those songs side by side in their natural state, not like they are in this clip. the guy says "even the drums and bass match up" yeah, well, it's because you changed the speed of the song to do so. It's manipultive. |
