thank you tom.
RUSH - "Headlong Flight" - Official Lyric Video - YouTube
honestly have to say although they are not my first pick on itunes,
they are still probably in the top 10 bands worldwide
playing this genre' of rock & roll; the fact that their legacy is
40+ years most likely puts them #1 on their loyal fan's top 10 list.
there's something about geddy's voice recently that i do not care for; seems
like he rolls up to notes and does it consistantly, it's not how he sang in
the good ole' days - i know, i'm splitting hairs.
the one thing that struck me listening to this song is it's opening is extremely
similar to the foo fighters' song 'bridge burning' from their recent album
'wasting light' (which continues to be a huge favorite of mine)

too much time plowing through youtube both old and new and of course
get really stuck on a few.

Good old Xanadu. Saw them play this in 1990 back in Kansas City. That was a treat.
I don't think it's just me, but the synthesizer work from this era sounds so good. I like the old analog synths, like the oberheims and mini-moogs rush used.

I'm with you, man. The new tech is cool, but nothing will compare to good old analog. I love the modular synths with the patch cables

You should check out Analog Heaven New England. I went back in 2009 and it was cool to see all of these old modular synths with patch cords snaking around...
There is a documentary on Robert Moog, simply titled Moog. More people use analog synths than I previously thought, as evidenced by the bands in this film.
I am sure there are interviews with Oberheim as well, but I haven't run across them.
It's on Netflix, too...

Isn't there something weird going on with these guys not yet inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame?
Don't know much about it, but, if true, it just doesn't seem right.

I've read that there is a person on the voting committee that has said, in
effect, "as long as I have a vote, Rush will never be inducted." I don't
have a citation for this.
But, Rush doesn't seem to be too concerned with it. They are doing what
they have always done: concentrate on making music that pleases them,
and in the process, pleasing their fans. And then putting on a great live
show.

Personally, I can relate more to the inductees in this H.O.F. (Rush 2011)
Welcome to the Progressive Rock Hall of Fame

rock and roll hall of fame is commercial rock and roll; yet another branch
of the performing arts full of self-adulation and awards.
rush IMO has not and does not play this game.
like any business, rush flourishes based on their repeat customers and the
excellent product they have put forth for over 40 years.
