Rush

[Charles Albert]

Back in the late 70s, Rush was the object of much ridicule........then
sometime on the mid 80s one of those "100 Greatest Bassists" lists placed
Geddy Lee near the top and, like AC/DC, Rush became
"respectable"......Their iconic status persisted with frequent references
on Aqua Teen Hunger Force - which took a very hard line against Loverboy....

I second rich's emotion.....the lyrics may be emetic, but the musicianship
is top shelf...

love,
cfa
