That is a bloody nightmare!!!!
This is a tough one that we do. Starts at 3mins 2 secs.
There are a couple of changes during the song.
It falls back to a basic pattern for the solo.
Just brought in a drummer and the complexity of the song becomes more apparent when he plays along and he is a well seasoned drummer.

EV, that is clever! It seems to be two bars of 3/4 and one bar of 2/4 for the main verse bit, but the rest is a mystery to me.
[Chuckle] I'm enjoying this series. I can just see your face as you tap the beat out.
Its a mystery to me as well.....thats why I play a mostly melodic bass line lol.
I always suspected that the best Rock music was just made up as they went along. Must be all the psychotrpic drugs Ginger Baker was on.
