-Caveat Lector-
I once was at a meeting where Coleman's book "The Committee of 300" was
for sale. I opened it up and read that Dean Rusk was the head of the
State Department at the beginning of the Korean War and that it was his
fault, etc. I, of course, realized the guy must have meant Dean Acheson
(sp?). Then I flipped to another page which had the info on the Beatles.
I don't remember him saying that Adorno wrote all this music, etc. but
it did say that the Beatles music was "atonal". I was trained in music
and I know atonal music. No music by the Beatles that I know of was
atonal. Atonal means without a tonal center. The beatles music had a
clear tonal center. In fact, one might complain that it was "too tonal".
That is, it so centered on one key that some might find it boring for
that reason. Gershwin's music would be more accurately described as
atonal since he changed keys very often (though his music is not atonal
either). So, Coleman was batting 0 for 2. I moved on.
