Advice on a blog post on the Beatles' use of descending chord progressions

[tardy pigeon]

Hi there

Is there anyone here of a musicological bent who could help me write a
post for my blog (it's called Music Makes Me) which is on the Beatles'
use of descending chord progressions? I'm not fully confident I'm not
making some schoolboy errors in my attempt to deconstruct and quantify
the phenomenon.

Anyone interested, please email me at tardy...@yahoo.co.uk and I'll
send you the text of the article. I'm quite happy to credit any
contributions on the page itself!

Thanks

Tardy

I don't think it is something that can be quantified, other than saying they
sometimes ascend also.

This won't be helpful, but I've had your nice blog bookmarked for some
time. Thanks for turning me on to that Persian Rug comp. Oh, and
Stickball. Wonderful filth, that.

That disturbing Beatles painting from this summer? Ermm... not so
much. I put up a link to in in RMB.
