if you listen to Redlight by the slackers and then listen to Must Catch a Train by Symarip (Derrick Morgan) its the same melody and they don't credit him for it
I know this phenomenon. You can listen to so many Ska-Songs from the 60s and you will find so much similarities to other songs. This is the way music goes! ;-)
@rudeboyjohn yeah, the B line in the verses is similar to those in Redlight, but big fuckin deal. Otherwise, the songs are completely different. Additionally, Symarip is Roy Ellis, definitely not Derrick Morgan. I assume your feeble mind got confused b/c Symarip's Skinhead Moonstomp take it's rhythm from an earlier Derrick Morgan tune. Fool.

Artists use the same melodies all the time...Doesn't mean it's stolen...there are only so many notes one can play.

true, but when you look at the similarities, its clear where redlight came from, rhyming title and same melody.

@rudeboyjohn It's slightly similar on a few lines in the verse but the chorus is completely different.
