That is quite likely the only song you know in 15/16 time.

You hit hit me hard, C-Dawg. An ELP callout and an HR Giger album cover. I think technically that piece is 15/8, so for a 16 signature it would be transcribed as 30/16.

The intro to Right Now (by VH) is not in 15/16; it is in 4/4, but the riff starts after a 16th note rest, so it feels off once the drums start counting down the final measure of the intro before verse riff starts.

I'm awful.

Building off of crushers NHL players don't know the Beatles post, it is a well established fact that the best post-Beatles music was that created by George, correct? I feel like that's a slam dunk but I'm not a music guy like yinz are

George was the soul of The Beatles and yes on subsequent output. imo.

I never post here, but since I was invited, I watched a really interesting documentary on XTC today on Showtime. Highly recommend.

Slam dunk? No. If anything, it's a toss up between George and John. I'd probably give the nod to John.

Wings were wonderful for me and I'm grateful to Paul for
'Jet'
'Uncle Albert...'
'My Love'
'Band On The Run'
'Live And Let Die'
'Helen Wheels'
'Let me Roll It'
Would also say he/they did a lot of things that I found unlistenable: looking at you 'Silly Love Songs' & 'Let Him In'

David Allan Coe is a national treasure.

George Harrison, imo, suffered from the subtle bias of lowered expectations. As a songwriter, he was essentially an employee of Lennon & McCartney... he even had a quota of songs he was expected to write for each album. (I think just one, but you normally don't write one song and call it a day; you write a couple and pick the best.) His stuff was great - Within You Without You is maybe my favorite song, period - but there was always the sense that he was great because of his collaborators.

So when he started putting out solo stuff that was as good as anything J & P were doing, I think there was a tendency at the time to sort of a wee bit overrate him to compensate, and that has colored his legacy somewhat. I think in comparison, it's more a matter of preference rather than quality which one you think is best. I'm a Paul guy.

He was nothing short of brilliant, don't get me wrong. And I tread lightly here, as George is Mrs Tif's favorite by like a really big margin.

One way I'll definitely give George the edge: Working with Cirque du Soliel was his idea, and LOVE is the greatest entertainment ever.

All Things Must Pass is the best post-Beatles release imo.

John: intellect and innovation
Paul: pop sensibility
George: soul
Ringo: heart (and goofiness)

As far as the Stones, I’m a Brian Jones guy: he was real blues aficionado and set the template for their growth.

I was just going to post something in that vein.

I love All Things Must Pass, I think Paul's first two solo albums are pretty good, but the answer is John. The answer is always John.
