    Recommend some newer Rush songs.

    I liked a lot of the lyrics on Presto but the music is mostly pop garbage through a Rush filter. I agree almost completely with op's assessment and a lot of his favorites. Rush is still my favorite band although the last album they did that I thoroughly enjoy is now something like 42 years...

    What Songs/Bands First Got You Into Music?

    No need to be sorry about that. I think getting into Kiss today with all the baggage they've released over the years would be like a ******** prog head getting into Journey without hearing their first album. Perhaps you will hear their very early stuff and find something you like, maybe not...

    Rank These 4 Grunge Bands in Order of Best to Worst

    AIC, Pearl Jam, Nirvana, Soundgarden which is kind of weird since my favorite musician from all of them was in Soundgarden.

    Hello

    I used to say Within You Without You was my favorite Beatles song but as my knowledge of their whole catalog expanded I became less sure I could pick one. I can't. Too much absolute gold.

    Account Deletion

    I try but I'm usually let down especially if it's someone that came out in the last 20 years. I'll keep trying though. My latest 'discovery' has been a best of from The Marshall Tucker Band who previously batted a .500 with me because they had one song I liked that I knew of (Can't You See) and...

    If a classical composer were writing today, who would he be?

    The Beatles would be kind of the Bach of rock (if this is what you mean) being not the first but the first to take all essential elements and combine them into a sort of working amalgam. Zeppelin would be like Beethoven or Mozart (building on an already established framework and expanding it or...

    Rush - Moving Pictures (1981)

    For me Moving Pictures was a step up from Permanent Waves but yes their last thoroughly great album. They made a conscience choice to embrace new wave type pop and they lost me. Signals was a great album for the genre just not a good Rush album and they got worse from there.

    What's Your Favorite Album of All Time?

    That whole era from Caress of Steel to Hemispheres is just peak heavy progressive music (or whatever you want to call it). Absolutely inspired.

    OK. This answer works too.

    What's Your Favorite Album of All Time?

    Probably still Hemispheres from Rush. I have a lot of favorites depending on mood but this is an absolutely welcome album no matter what mood I'm in.

    Jethro Tull (Official Thread)

    Like most hard rock fans there were a few Tull songs I always liked. Around the time we were all jamming in the neighborhood my brother and a really good guitar player started covering somewhat obscure Tull songs. Don't remember which ones but while interested I was still most heavily into stuff...

    R.I.P. Ronnie Spector

    One of the better and more distinctive voices of the motown sound. RIP. Her work was absolutely foundational.

    Who here plays the guitar?

    My classical is a Takamine (used to call them Cockameme). It is pretty much the only thing I play these days other than drums. I'm making ok money and have been thinking about getting a Les Paul brand new. The one I want is only $1400 but I can't bring myself to let off that much money for...
