Your Earlier Wrong Assumptions Related to Music

The Anders wrote: Before equal temperament became standard, several other keyboard tunings were used (f.e. the quarter-comma meantone which was common in the 1500 and 1600 years), and they of course limited the possibilities of key changes and harmonic excesses). Bach's Das Wohltemperierte Klavier (The Well-Tempered Clavier) is only possible with equal temperament.

early Queen pre Night o the opera is quite heavy almost proto heavy metal, so not a to wrong train of thought.

Supertramp is 1/5th american if we consider the classic line-up as drummer Robert is american by birth, funnily enough, bouth Roger, Rick and Dougie Thompson have obtained american citizenship, perhaps also mrs John Halliwel, so now they canbe called american sort-of

I used to be under the impression that both Supertramp and The Bee Gees were American 

I wasn't aware about the bass drums, and that drummers play with their feet as well as their hands. So, while I was air drumming, I was accompanying everything with my hands.

When I was a kid, I had an annoyingly loud voice. My mum was literally turning her head towards some other directions when I was telling her something with enthusiasm. Then, I became a teenager... I was thinking that I have a super talking and singing voice, until... I recorded my voice to a cassette. It was a massive frustration... Then, I worked on my vocal technique (by myself) at university, and became an accomplished amateur singer. AND my voice became annoyingly loud again. I was warned many times by my teachers, during our free intervals because of this; while everyone of us were chatting. Even when speaking normally, my voice was always loud. But my teachers also were giving me the job of reading texts to the class.

Now, I accept myself as I am. No complaints or anything...

I think maturity is a good thing. Who would want to live with their wrong assumptions forever?

When I was a kid I thought the “producer” listed on the album was like a conductor for an orchestra. I used to grab a couple of spoons and pretend I was Tony Clarke “producing” for the Moody Blues.
