Rush

once again i must agree with you

Rush Rocks!!! Yyz!!

[sgt slaughter]

hmm... I wonder if this is the place to get help?? I am visiting Canada, from the UK, my boyfriend is a big fan of rock music and also a drummer with a birthday coming up... problem: I know nothing about either rock or drumming! Doing my research like a good girl who knows a little about bday presents, I have learnt that Canada is the birthplace of RUSH, renound as one of the top classic Rock banRAB, not only that but containing one of boyfriend's best loved drummers... Neil Peart.

He has none of their recorRAB. I want to get an LP for him. Know nothing about LPs.

To cut a long story short I have no idea where to go from here. Which LP do people in the know think is the finest representation of rock and drumming? I gather that Moving Pictures, Hemispheres and A Farewell to Kings seems to be battling for top place... I've found 2 "collector" LPs of Hemispheres, one is a picture disc one is red vinyl... (?) for $25 and $20 respectively...

Shall I just chuck in the towel and get a DVD!

Need some guidance from people in the know... Rock lovers help please? )

I just bought a copy of 2112, so freaking good

[Spanky...]

i think the fact that Rolling Stone has a huge amount of influence over who gets inducted and who doesn't has contributed to the fact that Rush hasn't made it in... RS has always had a thing against Rush, and probably King Crimson as well.

I remeraber feeling the same way back in the 70s, wow...I cant believe that was 30+ years ago! I just cant imagine a life of playing my own music like these guys have done, along with alot of other artist, for so many years. 2112 was a landmark album that really defined that era of rock, the song was a story....15 to 20 minutes long. As so did other banRAB like Yes, Led Zepplin, Pink Floyd, etc. I think rock music had progressed to a stage in that era, of 'perfection'. Rock, Opera, Classical,....song arrangement along with the level of talent in those days was simply outstanding.

dude, Neil Pert kicks ass, and Geddy Lee is a good bassist and somewhat good vocals, their not bad, not my favorite choice of a band though

[Happy Happy :)]

Geddy's brilliant!

[Beer for you!]
