I Think You're Right.....

"I do believe most of this sort of thing in rock involves more than one player. The Talking Heads dabbled in it for awhile, Joe Jackson, and the Grateful Dead, I think. To my knowledge all used an additional percussionist or drummer. Stewart Copeland is the most likely suspect I would imagine might have done this by himself, but I don't know."

The only song I suspect this occurring is the Police "Walking on the Moon", where Copeland does something like this in the middle of the song, but I have to listen to it. Someone thought Peart may have done so during R30 Overture, but the rhythms are interlinked, not totally independent.

If nothing else, I think the claim I was investigating is going to turn up false. The tracks I found with drummers supposedly doing 3/4 over 4/4, it's with the rest of the band, not by himself.
