Am I really the first person to document the striking similarity between Jerry Lordan's 'Apache', a big hit for the Shadows in 1960 which has since become something of a legendary recording, and Philip Glass' 'Metamorphosis #3', apparently 'composed' in 1988? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apache_%28instrumental%29 https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=1&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=2ahUKEwjwrbzHzujeAhWDL8AKHZYHA04QyCkwAHoECAEQBQ&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.youtube.com%2Fwatch%3Fv%3DEzgbcyfJgfQ&usg=AOvVaw027ErYhY28XkTt6KXaZasd https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solo_Piano_%28Philip_Glass_album%29 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M73x3O7dhmg (similarly begins to be closes about 9:15 from start) |
