I don’t think one ever needs an excuse to post an Al Green song, but just in case: it’s Saturday morning. There. Music nerds take note: Howard Grimes’ drumming flips from a syncopated break on the intro to a driving soul beat in the verses and back to a slow-and-low breakdown for the choruses. Who says Soul musicians can’t get their prog on?

I do. There’s nothing prog about that. Maybe if the chorus was in 10/3…

Yeah, but you listen to Paramore.
END OF STORY SON.

Paramore is awesome and they change beats mid song, too. Maybe they’re really into King Crimson.
