Mixed Meter
In a chart attributed to Scott Thunes for Zombie Woof from "The Best Band You Never Heard", the structure of the song is: || 12/16 | 5/16 (2x) | 4/8 | 5/4 | 15/16 (4x) | 4/4 (5x) ("Three hundred years ago..." up to "You know I'll never sleep no mo'" | 2/4 | 5/4 | 4/4 (7x) | 5/4 | 5/16 (11X) | 4/4 (12X) | 7/8 | 5/4 | 5/16 (8x) | 7/8 | 2/4 | 4/4 (81X for guitar solo) | 7/8 | 4/4 (3X)) | 7/8 | 4/4 (3X) | 12/16 | 5/16 (2x) | 4/4 || Rush - Cygnus X-1: Intro, 13/8 (6+7).

Yes, "Changes" from their 1983 album 90125: Intro thing is in a shifting pattern of || 4/4 | 6/8 | 4/4 | 12/8 ||. It breaks down as 4 quarter notes (4/4), then 2 triplets (6/8) | <--repeat that whole measure, but add two more triplets on the end (12/8) | repeat. You could probably call it one measure of 14/8 and one of 20/8 respectively as well, but I don't think there is much advantage to doing it that way, at least where readability or teaching/communicating with other musicians are concerned. So it's more a matter of preference, I guess.

(1995) "Possum Kingdom" by The Toadies is not really in an odd time, per se. It's 4/4 + 3/4 + 4/4 repeating for most of the first half of the song. (1966) "Son of Suzy Creamcheese" by Frank Zappa. According to Zappa - " It's four bars of 4/4, one bar 8/8, one bar of 9/8--OK? And then it goes 8/8, 9/8, 8/8, 9/8, 8/8, 9/8, then it goes 8/8, 4/8, 5/8, 6/8, and back into 4/4 again." (1989) Fourth movement Allegro from Piano Sonata No. 2 by Nikolai Kapustin is in strictly repeating 4/4, 7/8, 4/4, 5/8 throughout. The earliest known western music was unmeasured (at least in the modern sense). For example the performance of plainsong, many of the masterpieces of which date from the fifth or sixth to the eighth centuries, is inflected both by the meter of the poetry and the articulation of the phrases into neumes, the groups of notes sung to each syllable, and this often results in complex and irregular rhythms. Compositions whose time signature is not constant are often encountered in 20th and 21st century classical music, The Rite of Spring (1913) providing an early example.
