You guys can probably help me out with this. I am trying to write this period piece that sounds like it came from 50's era and I came up with this progression:
C Am Dm G (or G7, they both sound fine to me)
I play it 6/8 doing arpeggios, but can't help but feel like someone already used this progression in a notable song. I was thinking The Penguins, people have suggested Ritchie Valens, and some others. I've looked up all the songs that people, or I, think it might be and it has always turned out to be a different progression but the same feel.
Anyone know what it might be? I want to make sure I'm not ripping somebody off note per note and thus avoid any legal issues that could possibly arise.
I've even googled "C Am Dm G" and ".... G7)" which hasn't yielded anything either... except one website that says some Dr. has the copyright to it, but searching his name doesn't result in anything useful except the same website so who knows how legit that is.
Thanks for the help!
