Amazing resonances. Speaking of piano exercises, I have to mention this snippet from the article accompanying the nyt yacht rock playlist, which just published earlier this week.
When the L.A. band Ambrosia was opening for the Doobie Brothers on a late 1970s tour, (Michael) McDonald gave the frontman David Pack some songwriting advice: If you’re looking for some really out-there chord progressions, check out George Frideric Handel’s practice books. Pack took note and soon after came up with the foundation of this dreamy 1980 tune (biggest part of me), which would become one of the band’s biggest hits.
