Tracks that sound like music lesson exercises – or indeed are

Niche post alert. One of the joys of attending the primary school music evenings was seeing the 8-year old drummers do their paradiddles to a backing track called something like ‘Red Hot Chilli’ or ‘Driving’ out of ‘Grade 1 Drumming’.
And then I listened a couple of weeks ago to The Cure’s debut which has a track that clearly comes out of ‘Guitar for Beginners’ and mischievously is called The Weedy Burton (see what they did there). And this week I’m listening to the marvellous Colossal Youth by Young Marble Giants which have several tracks that sound like they are on the first few pages of ‘Play Bontempi Organ in a Day.’ So over, to you for tracks that sound or indeed are music lesson pieces or maybe even in-store demos.
