Thread Name: Odd meters, 7/8 anyone?
Subject: RE: Odd meters, 7/8 anyone?
Can anyone offer an example of the odd meter? Something so easy to find as to trip over? From a Broadway musical perhaps? Something as well known as Happy Birthday?

Pink Floyd - "Money". 7/8 time.

Incidentally, Floyd drop back into 4/4 time during the guitar solo in "Money", bcos Gilmour didn't think he could do a good solo in 7/8 time.

Graham.
