Hang on. I don't want to start a thing, but didn't you and I actually get into a rather lengthy debate about whether or not musical influence or innovation or some such thing could be quantified? Didn't you argue that it could indeed be done?
I don't remember the specifics of the conversation, and looking back I actually think that within a certain sample size, trends could be identified and matched up with first recorded instances of certain musical styles in a way that might hold up to some statistic scrutiny it done properly and over a long period of time. But I'm just seeking clarification here.
