I went to check the scores of many tangos, it looks that all the tangos before 1915 were written in 2x4 the same as the milongas. Aftterwards tangos were written in 4x4 or 4x8 but many in 2x4 as well.

4x8 Que falta que me haces - Musician Armando Pointier

2x4 Malvon - written in 1944 by Osmar Maderna

2x4 Ma?ana Zarpa un barco ' 1942 ' Lucio De Mare

2x4 Mano a Mano - 1923 - Carlos Gardel

4x8 Maria - 1945 - Anibal Troilo

4x8 Bahia Blanca - Carlos Di sarli -

2x4 El Porte?ito

2x4 El Entreriano

2x4 Derecho Viejo

Just wondering, without checking the scores, is it possible to recognise the
difference between 4x4 and 4x8? And is the second number, i.e. x4 or x8?
of any use to dancers?
