Yeah, that "Taxman" bass line is elemental. You pick up an instrument and your fingers are drawn into that pattern.
Wasn't that Elastica song technically a sample? I know they had to give credit...
There's a great story about Gary Louris griping about Tom Petty's "Last Dance with Mary Jane" aping his Jayhawks' "Waiting for the Sun." And Rick Rubin told Gary, "Yeah, he might have stolen that, but BOTH you guys stole it from Neil Young." And Gary went like, "D'oh!"
Speaking of Petty , The Strokes' "Last Night" = "American Girl"
