i don’t remember much, but last night’s dreams were all related to Dave Brubeck’s classic Time Out album, most specifically his stellar, breakthrough hit “Take Five”.
(there’s an allegory here, but i’m not going into it; after all, it seems way too obvious, given Brubeck’s famous history, and yet too lengthy to explain for those who don’t get it already.)
the precursor to math-rock, Time Out was an album of highbrow “cool jazz” songs played in less common time signatures (7/4, 5/4, etc.).
so anyway, i think that this all somehow qualifies as definitive proof that i am not, and have never been, an intellectual.
