Song : Yo Cats (3:34)
Album: FZ Meets the Mothers of Prevention (#44, 11/21/85)
4/4, Key of F (usually)
This is a cool piece about the music biz and FZ's impression of session
players. This is a fun song to play so if you've never heard it dig up
a copy of FZMMP, well worth it with some excellent, short Synclavier comps.
Some of the chord in this one are questionable. Especially the C/F/Ami/Dmi.
I played with this one a lot before I settled on those chords. Some other
options include G/F/C/Dmi and C/Bb/Ami/G. The B/F#/C#/G... section is
also very weird. These chords work with the melody but harmonically aren't
the greatest in the song (unless you like that sorta thing :0) If you
find alternates let me know.
This song has subjective chords because the progressions are implied
by the melody only. There are no clear chord parts being played.
