Absolutely. Love this piece :)


Ya...

these two tracks are how they suckered me into buying two of their albums. My two most favorite Rush albums at that. :)

I need to take a listen to Fly From Here, I wasn't aware that it had been released until just now. Nice to hear that they're getting back into longer works, though I'm not sure how I feel about Benoit David.
Conclusion: extremely underwhelming. I don't even think that much of it can be blamed on Benoit David; almost all the songwriting seems to be pretty much going through the motions. (The title piece in particular suffers from being a handful of different songs transparently strung together, which I've heard in other long-form songs but never in one of Yes's :() "Into the Storm" really seems to be the only track anybody gave much of a damn about.

As for the new kid...he sounds like someone took Geddy Lee and sucked out all the energy :/ I hate to say that, he's probably gotten enough flameage, but I really was not impressed.

Oh well. Plenty of great stuff from previous incarnations to listen to.

Thought today I would listen to some 80's One Hit Wonders... :)

This one by Aneka somehow was a hit (she's really the daughter of a famous old traditional Scottish folk singer Kenneth McKellar ... true)... :rolleyes:

Some of you may despise Hip-Hop, but I like a lot of it for the fact that some of it's lyrics reveal the underbelly of reality for what they really are. Such as this song for instance...

Going way back today to the very first album I ever owned... :)
It was called "Wear It's At" by the Rubettes and was given to me
as a birthday present around 1973 by one of my sisters... :)
