| May 21, 2021 at 11:10 | comment | added | user45266 | I'd have to agree with @JohnBelzaguy, the argument for E major as the key here doesn't look too good. If B7 in A is a stretch, then what the heck is G major doing going to D7 in E? Seems a lot more logical to call it A major, if not purely based on where the A chords sit in relation to the hypermetric structure - why start and end sections on the IV like that? It's an interesting alternative theory, but IMO a bit far-fetched with no context to point to as evidence for me to believe it at the moment. | |
