Days Of Wild and Caravan Anyone notice a similarity between the beginning of Days of Wild (Prince) and Caravan by Duke Ellington...? It's almost indentical, it takes for a musician to hear it, or maybe not...? Try it, that's if any of you have Duke lying around, I sure hope so

The similarity was pointed out in 1996 on alt.music.prince. I can hear the similarity, but Duke Ellington's melody is much broader and more interesting (IMHO) than the similar, much shorter, line in DoW.Blue Drink Blue Kool-aid ALT+PLS+RTN: Pure as a pane of ice. It's a gift. | |
