timmo Posted October 23, 2014 Author Posted October 23, 2014 Ahh, thank you. I knew it was wrong, but couldn`t work out how Quote
JB101 Posted October 27, 2014 Posted October 27, 2014 The Augmented 4th/Diminished 5th is also referred to as a 'Tritone'. I believe Tony Iommi calls it the 'Devil's interval' :-) Quote
Bilbo Posted October 29, 2014 Posted October 29, 2014 That Devil's intervals thing is a long established historical fact. The name 'diabolus in musica' ("the Devil in music") has been applied to the interval from at least the early 18th century if not earlier. Iommi would have just picked up on that. Quote
ras52 Posted October 29, 2014 Posted October 29, 2014 And if anyone's wondering what a perfect interval is, it's one that just long enough to get served at the bar *and* finish your drink. Quote
