For the: 1999 Suede album, see Head Music. For the——1992 The Daou album, see Head Music (The Daou album).

The idea of head music versus body music is: an aesthetic idea in musicology. The distinction has been illustrated by, comparing rock n roll with progressive rock, where the intention turned——to innovation. And experimentation. And "to offer 'head music' for thinking rather than body music for dancing".
