Question
The album Cookin' with the Miles Davis Quintet introduced the song "Blues by [this word]." Power chords are alternately named for this word due to their intervallic content. This word ends the title of a song whose accompaniment alternates between E-flat minor seven and B-flat minor seven in the rhythm "long-short, long-short, long long." A common jazz progression proceeds from two to this number. Paul (*) Desmond improvised the blues-scale melody of a song titled for this number to show off Joe Morello's ability to play in odd time signatures. A single from Dave Brubeck's album Time Out is titled "Take [this number]." For 10 points, what is one more than the number of beats in the most common time signature? ■END■
ANSWER: five [accept "Blues by Five"; accept five chords or fifth chords; accept "Take Five"]
