In the 1980s there was a certain keyboard player. While his hair - down to his hips! - would fly all about, he would skillfully control five keyboards, and was famous for freely switching between complicated 7/8 and 19/16 rhythms. However, he had one weakness. He couldn't play simple 4/4 rhythms! Whenever someone suggested he start playing a simple 4/4 tune, his hands would clench, his breathing would turn shallow, and he'd claim, "4/4 music is dying". He vigorously denied the right to existence of all dance music. Time passed, and now he has perfected the ultimate in 4-beat play.
