"(I'm Not Your) Steppin' Stone" is a #rock song written by #TommyBoyceAndBobbyHart. It was first recorded by the English band the #LiverpoolFive in early 1966 but remained unreleased before summer of that same year. In the meantime, the American band #PaulRevere_TheRaiders recorded the song which appeared on their album #MidnightRide, released in May 1966. The song is simple musically, with a repeating verse #chordProgression of E major, G major, A major.

BBC News - Ed Sheeran sings and plays guitar at copyright trial in New York

I am in favour of melodic copyrights, but #ChordProgression #copyright claims are plainly absurd.

Should anyone be permitted to copyright ii-V-I progression? Should anyone be permitted to claim exclusive ownership of onions-carrots-celery 2:1:1 mirepoix? Should anyone be permitted to prohibit others' use of beginning-middle-ending compositional structure?

In the interest of tradition of use, of social benefit, and of conserving legal resources, courts should stop entertaining such #FrivolousSuits.
