Ethiopia by Red Hot Chili Peppers
Ethiopia
Just in case it helps, the verse, middle section and outro are all in 7/8, so you count
7 quavers per bar.
Just to note though quite often Josh is playing a polyrhythm over Flea and Chad who are
in 7/8 so counting
that probably won't help you when playing guitar for anything other than the main verse
riff, unless of course
your adept at counting a rhythm and playing a polyrhythm over it.
The chorus is technically in 4/4 for the most part but it's easier to count 8/8 because
they add on an extra
quaver on the last go round making it 3 bars of 8/8 and 1 bar of 9/8. So you'd count 8
quavers per bar for 3
bars then you'd count 9 quavers for the last.
