| Speaking of Canadian music...anyone here like Triumph?
On the Rush subject though, I guess it's fair to say people either love Rush or they hate Rush. I personally love their music. Like a previous poster said, just because their songs don't fit the 3:30 cookie cutter mold for song length means they suck. If I wanted to only listen to "cookie cutter" songs, I would listen to all the new "Pop" stuff out now. My favorite Rush songs are Xanadu, Trees and Limelight with a slew of others I like also. I think Alex Lifeson is underrated as a guitar player imo. Granted he's not anyone who "changed" guitar playing or burns up the frets with his speed. What he does do though is compliment very well Geddy and Neil. I still think Neil is one of the best ever at playing the skins, and Geddy isn't too shabby at the Bass/Keyboard. Also if anyone didn't know, all 3 of them have degrees in music. I think that's also why they all compliment each other so well. |
