alright so for the bridge, let's make that 7/8 with a half measure outro in the key o

Once again i turn to the town of hypography for advice:

when i write, i listen to really complicated music. it stimulates my mind and my thoughts soar.
i do not have much complicated music...the mars volta, mahavishnu orchestra, king crimson, godspeed you black emperor KIND OF is, and well...that's pretty much it.
what i ask all of you to do is please suggest to me some complicated old jazz, or really anything complex.
complex being really thought-out song structure, and some nifty time signatures.

bring it on.

I believe I have seen some where that some studies have shown that classical music is good for creative thought, i.e. Beethoven, Mozart, Bach, etc.. Most areas have a radio station that plays classical so you could probably give it a whirl for free.

not in redneck hell florida. plus i'm not a big fan of classical, although i do like it. i'm looking for something more like jazz, as early as the 40's even, and anything that came 65 years after that.

or how about a website or something where i can find old jazz players names or something, so i can illegalily download their music?

Have you tried out online radio? Many stations offer streaming audio.

yes, i use itunes as well. that is what got me interested in the hipster era of jazz. i'm a bit on an audiofile and just want to get a hold of musicians so i can download their stuff.

Interesting time signatures: Errol Garner. Unusual tunes: Thelonius monk.

Both pianists. I admit I am biased.

No problem. What instrument is your primary gadget?

Piano. I am a B-minus pianist, but I have a magnificent piano. It is a 1972 7'5" Grotian-Stienweg. Horowitz would have loved it.

I consider it my fourth child. Although at 1200 pounds, it weighs a lot more than the sum of the other three.
