Hello everybody. Most of us know that Mike made ample use, in almost all of his production, of unusual or strange time signatures (such as, to mention just the most famous one, the 7/8-9/8 alternation in the TB theme). I would like you all to contribute here with ALL the instances of irregular / unusual meters that you remember having heard from other artists [I am only talking about instrumental stuff... please don't tell me anything about the irregularities in Sting's jazzy songs or in Pink Floyd's 'Money ;)]. I know it's a bit hard, but please try. :)  :).
Thanx in advance.

Erik Satie often didn't use any time signature, although his music doesn't sound weird, unlike David Bedford's, who has probably several pieces without time signature (and perhaps even without notes ;) )
