Some time ago I talked about a lack of differentiation that was, um, caused by one company copying another.
And one of those records was so unmemorable that it was memorable.
The album, recorded in the early to mid 1960s, trumpeted the fact that the group that recorded the album was extremely versatile. You see, the record not only included surf songs, but also included car songs!
The only problem? The album was NOT by the Beach Boys.
And I can’t even remember the name of the band.
But this sameness is not only a result of causation.
It can also happen due to correlation, when two things—in this case, two pieces of content—originate from the same source.
I will examine this on Wednesday.
