Who did his best and was quite successful at making things sound random... with purpose. He was probably bored with his own tonal constraints. 
Ragnarok is nigh! The end of all things is upon us!! Musick just wrote something that could pass for complimentary about Gottlieb.

Yes! It's a lot more difficult to be creative within a restrictive framework -- cf. sonnet vs free verse. Even our resident musickal iconoclast has now more or less admitted this.

I'm not so sure about that. Could the impression be due to the fact that lack of creativity is more difficult to spot in a random "framework"?

Last eve on the bus two young men were discussing a movie:
"It's a totally random movie."
Aha that's the first time I have heard random used to mean odd or weird
"I mean it's just random scenes, there's no story line."
Or not.
