Ha, yeah! I was thinking of that one. That's one where the root of the chord goes up for the IV and V chords, whereas the root goes down in "Baba."
― timellison, Monday, 25 June 2012 02:34 (10 months ago) Permalink
I thought the Superchunk song that bit "Baba O'Riley" was the outro of "Song For Marion Brown."

Isn't this just I-V-IV? That's pretty standard in rock music, isn't it? Or are you looking for the same rhythm as "Baba O'Riley" too?
― EveningStar (Sund4r), Tuesday, 12 March 2013 03:51 (2 months ago) Permalink
i always think about starting a companion thread about riffs with the same cadence as the "Baba O'Riley" riff because i know tons of those but have no idea when the chords are the same or not
― some dude, Tuesday, 12 March 2013 03:53 (2 months ago) Permalink
I don't think I-V-IV is that common really! Not as a repeating sequence, anyway. (I'm sure there would be lots more songs where I-V-IV is part of a larger pattern.)
― timellison, Tuesday, 12 March 2013 04:03 (2 months ago) Permalink
Yeah, I just scanned a couple of articles on rock harmony and you seem to be right.

Yeah, "Baba" is F-C-Bb, WGFA is A-G-D. Different chords, different chord progressions.

yeah, I guess it would be I-VII-IV

....unless D is the root, then it would be V - IV - I ....

Do you hear D as the tonic in "Won't Get Fooled Again" though? I think it's clearly A.

This is a great video if you like this song and have been misled about the song's construction:

tbf, the organ track on Townshend's demo (which was nine minutes, and edited down for the band recording) was put through a couple of warbly synth modules at about the four- or five-minute mark. But yeah, as the clip shows, at no point was data about Meher Baba's life fed into a computer with that music being the result.
