Can anyone help me with the count in the first rests of Lido Shuffle by Boz Scaggs? I cant quit figure out the count for the rest before the fill starts, is there a 7/8 bar there? any help much appreciated.
 
Way back when I was at PIT we wrote a chart for this song as part of a class.
It's all 4/4.

But that was 20 years ago, so don't ask me where the chart went. lol.
 
A bit deceiving because the last hit before the fill is on four then the fill starts on three almost three measures later but it's all in 4/4.......... I think.

Thanks for the input guys, but I think I have it, would be great if someone could check this for me.

If I count the first bar of rests as 5 beats then 4 beats rest for the next, the fill comes in on beat 3 of the next (3rd) bar and finishes in bar 4.

So the four bar fill is a 5/4 bar and 3 x 4/4 bars.??
 
Any way that you can organize it in your head is fine. I count the number of quarter note rests as 10 which would be two and a half bars. If you count in 4/4 before, through and after the fill I think you will find you can count in fours.
 
All 4/4! 1st break is 2 and half measures of rest.....back in 3 & 4&. Love this song works will in in live in clubs. Denis
