...This is why some of his music sounds odd and choppy...

I'm sure the cigarette in hand had some effect on his playing, but he was known to incorporate "mistake sounding" motifs into his performances as attempts to get "in between" two notes on the keyboard.

'sides, ain't nothin' odd 'bout any kinda 9th, unless it's a'classical.
