    Did you know that there is actual sheet music for the Beatles song Revolution Number Nine? Well, there is.

  • Today’s Music Lesson

    The Beatles used swing beats often in their songs (some of us just didn’t notice!). I know this because I have transcribed a lot of their songs with a straight beat and when it was turned into an mp3 it didn’t sound right. Some of their songs that use a swing beat are Penny Lane,

  • A C-Note

    I recently watched a show that used this song in its season finale. The title is “Christo Redentor” which translates to “Christ the Redeemer.” I just had to make my own version, of course. This is a good example of a repeating ii-V progression, which is very common in all kinds of music. The song

    Do you think Ralph Nader watched television? And if so, what brand? Perhaps a Zenith? Think about it…. (One reader said to me “I don’t get it.” Zenith and Nadir are terms that describe opposite points: zenith is the highest point, while nadir is the lowest point. But if one needs to explain a joke

    Check out this puzzle. The solution is surprising, but very logical once you see it. Anyway….Did I ever tell you about my Drill Sergeant? He was so tough, his suits were made of steel wool.
