[Smt-talk] equal division of the octave in pop songs

[Gregory Karl]

Interpreting "popular" pretty broadly:

King Crimson's "Fracture" (_Starless and Bible Black_) is a ten- 
minute work primarily using whole-tone scale. Their music is full of  
passages based on equal divisions. "Red," from eponymous album is  
also whole tone (and some octatonic I think.)
