That is a kind of statement one can not do anything with. Keep in mind that we never would have heard Brian’s slide guitar if Keith hadn't written the music. I liked that Black Sabbath gave credit to all members, even though Geezer would write the lyrics for Ozzy, who then mostly sang the melody of Tony's power chords! Shouldn't the drummer be given some credit for the creation the structure as well? Bill certainly should get some for his nice basslines tying it all together. Sometimes the feel and mood are just as important to the creation as a simple chord sequence. Personally, unless some members were missing entirely, I would include all the members more often than not. In general, one could speculate, they were following the Lennon/McCartney stamp with a Jagger/Richards one, regardless of the other bandmates contribution. I have no idea if Keith also had a hand in the lyrics and the singing melody. It can be compared to creating the melody for the lyrics and warrant some songwriting credit. Brian's dulcimer-riff sounds like it's essential to the song, although we don't know what came first - that riff or Mick's vocal melody (it's the same).įor No Expectations, I would rate strumming an A and E chord (with a D thrown in at the end) lower than creating a melodical theme that fits like Brian did with his slide part. Lady Jane could be a "grey area" track, though.
On The Last Time, however, it sounds like Keith is following the riff Brian wrote. He is following the chords Keith wrote with his slide guitar. There is a difference between laying down a superb guitar track and writing a song.
