The influence of Come Together is unmistakable, but I wouldn't call this song terrible. In fact, I love the song from the moment when Lake shuts up (usually I like his vocals, but not here).
Talking about KC and Come Together, what to think of Ladies of the Road? A brilliant Beatles pastiche, I would say, with a similar baseline - in 9/8.
Cooee! if we over analyze stuff, everything sounds similar or familiar, infact considering you are stating that Cat Food is a copycat from the Beatles - Come Together, this was not an original Beatles tune either, it is copied from Chuck Berry -"You Can't Catch Me" (From the 1956 film Rock, Rock, Rock!) Chuck's record label sued Lennon and they won.

Absolutely not the same to me, both have jazz fusion elements KC even more so in comparison to both these tracks, only similarity might be the vocal approach of pampara papapara..., instrumentally I cannot hear a distinctive similarity. Anyway a hug to you BarryGlibb xxx

As much as I love just about every Crimson tune and Cat Food is one of their more unique songs, still this time I'll go with GG, Memories Of Old Days simply gets deeper.

Dig me...But don't...Bury me I'm running still, I shall until, one day, I hope that I'll arrive Warning: Listening to jazz excessively can cause a laxative effect.
