Ged hands down. I will say that I don't pick rush members because I like the band but like the band because the members are exceptional musicians.

Geddy Lee is my personal favorite but please correct the spelling of Mr. Jones' name. I mean, he has the name of perhaps our very first naval hero for God's sake.

As pure bass playing talent, Geddy takes the cake here. His vocals are like nails on a chalkboard, but his bass playing is outstanding
