Man, you got your utf-8 pat.

You could try starting with something like

% Blues feel (♫ = ♩ ♪)

\new Staff {
  \tempo \markup { Blues feel
		   \concat { (
		     \score {
		       \new RhythmicStaff
		       \with { \override StaffSymbol.line-count = 0
			       \omit TimeSignature }
		       { c8 c8 \stopStaff s4-\markup = \startStaff
			 \tuplet 3/2 { c4 c8 } }
		       \layout { indent = 0
			       }
		     } ) } }
  c'8 c'8 c'8 c'8 c'8 c'8 c'8 c'8 }

and then get spacing and scaling under control.
