I've never much cared for this 1962 weeper from Mike Clifford, but I'm
including it at AAA anyway for historical reasons: the chord progression -
specifially the chromatically descending bass line over minor-6ths and
half-diminisheds - is an uncanny foreshadowing of the Beach Boys' 'God Only
Knows' from four years later.

                            "Close To Cathy"
                        (E. Shuman - B. Goodman)
