He was a mixture of jazz, post-rock, and post-punk,
a loud, bombastic
instrumental, cacophonous
free form and improvisation
skulking closest to the underground.
She was structure,
an epic and rehearsed drama
using her commercial appeal to gain mainstream approval.
Together they made soft soothing melodies,
creating emotional lyrics
written to quiet sunsets
Both styles complicated by their
conflicting formats.
Neither one better; just different,
depending on one’s tastes.
