"Gotta Get a Hold of Myself"

Backdated, archival post

---&---


This may be the song that I know the most parts for, which is sort of ironic because this wasn't written by the Zombies.

The organ part is more complex than I play it, but I discovered its complexity only a few months ago (when I got The Decca Stereo Anthology), and I haven't tried learning it more completely since then.

Also, can I just mention how great that descending chromatic bass line is?  I think it's supposed to represent the "footsteps sound[ing] down the hall."
