bradm Posted June 14, 2007 Report Share Posted June 14, 2007 Half Step by a long step.I agree (though I really like Dr. John's cover of "Deal" on the "Deadicated" album).Aloha,Brad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djmelbatoast Posted June 14, 2007 Report Share Posted June 14, 2007 I'd go with half-step, but they aren't the same song or even almost the same song. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paisley Posted June 14, 2007 Report Share Posted June 14, 2007 i find it easy to keep clapping in time from throwing stones straight through not fade awayomg! they're ALL the same! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bradm Posted June 14, 2007 Report Share Posted June 14, 2007 (edited) I'd go with half-step' date=' but they aren't the same song or even almost the same song. [/quote']Find me 2 GD tunes that are more similar!? (and Women R Smarter/Iko doesn't count)I Know You Rider and Morning Dew have the same chord progressions, the only differences being tempo and the way "Morning Dew" has AABB verses instead of the AAB verses of "I Know You Rider".Aloha,Brad Edited June 14, 2007 by Guest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Booche Posted June 14, 2007 Report Share Posted June 14, 2007 They're not even close. You obviously havent heard Weird Al sing Deal over Half-Step like Hux did the other night in his own brain, lying on the couch as he searched for the remote trying to 'skip' ahead to the next Bobby song.

Hux Posted June 14, 2007 Author Report Share Posted June 14, 2007 I'll deal with you in a minute, but I think it goes beyond chords, it's tempo/feel/style - come on people think outside the box here! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarcO Posted June 14, 2007 Report Share Posted June 14, 2007 they are not even remotely the same song ding-dong.and for the record - Half Step. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarcO Posted June 14, 2007 Report Share Posted June 14, 2007 [color:purple]wow every song that is a "shuffle" is the EXACT SAME SONG! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hux Posted June 14, 2007 Author Report Share Posted June 14, 2007 All you Hunter/Garcia apologists need to get your heads out of the sand, they're very similar songs.I mean what song in the world sounds like Lost Sailor? Now THAT's originality. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarcO Posted June 14, 2007 Report Share Posted June 14, 2007 [color:purple]well, they're both sung in the English language and they both have drums on them....... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ollie Posted June 14, 2007 Report Share Posted June 14, 2007 As for Geoffs other question, Althea and Throwing Stones.I read somewhere that Robert Hunter thought Deal and Franklin's Tower were essentially the same song.How about the guitar solo in Throwing Stones versus the guitar intro to Samson & Delilah? They sound pretty similar to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Booche Posted June 14, 2007 Report Share Posted June 14, 2007 For those keeping score, you just saved yourself 20 bucks on your first guitar lesson from Hux should you ever decide to hire him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
