Thank you all, maybe one more question: which time signature would you use in »My Melancholy Blues«? Very interesting song. On Queensongs.info there is 4/4, but is that the right TS? Also if I open MIDI in a program there is 4/4 but there is so many bars with 4 triplets (4*3 eight notes) that it gives me impression of 12/8 , I am not really sure. But when I listen drums then I have impression that it is 4/4. It sounds little like jazz style and I am little confused. [/QUOTE]

I'd say 12/8 is right on the money. Try tapping a 4/4 beat to the song and you'll see what I mean.

Thanks Fireplace. Yes, it has 4 beats and therefore people mistakenly believe it is 4/4 but it is more likely to be 12/8. I just knew that 4/4 is suspicious.
