Old Mac (song)
"Old Mac" is a song released as the first non-album single by the Australian alternative rock band Tlot Tlot. It was released on 8 December 1992. Composition Musically, the song can be considered either hard rock or alternative rock. It uses a xylophone intro followed by heavy guitar riffs which play in the choruses.

A different guitar phrase, the notes C-F-F#-A#-F-C-F#-A#-C-A#-C-A#, is used between the verses. The breakdown has stomping on the bass pedal followed by the xylophone intro followed by the between-verses bit, but without the guitars. The chorus then begins again. There is a minor pause before the outro (which is just the chorus repeated four to five times) begins. The end of the song consists of a final strum of the guitar followed by Paulzen bending one of the strings as the ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Lyricist Jerome Leiber (April 25, 1933 – August 22, 2011) and composer Michael Stoller (born March 13, 1933) were American songwriting and record producing partners. They found success as the writers of such crossover hit songs as " Hound Dog" (1952) and "Kansas City" (1952).

Leiber and Stoller wrote hits for Elvis Presley, including " Love Me" (1956), " Jailhouse Rock" (1957), " Loving You", "Don't", and "King Creole". They also collaborated with other writers on such songs as " On Broadway", written with Barry Mann and Cynthia Weil; " Stand By Me", written with Ben E.
