Excellent suite! Loud and good - like 2112.
Thanks, I'm a big Rush fan.
This was written mainly listening to jazz.
Well, Rush became more jazzy in their later years (1993+)!
Yep, they did. They live in Toronto, my hometown. A friend of mine once painted Geddy's house. I've met Geddy, he's a great guy.
I always thought of Rush as progressive rock, incorporating elements from many different styles. Mind you, I was a big Emerson, Lake and Palmer fan.
I saw them Thursday before last at Wembley Arena in London. Amongst other things, they played a significant portion of 2112, which your poem reminded me of. Yeah, they were prog, but I can definitely say that they aren't now :-) ELP rules, btw!
I can't decide which is my favourite ELP album, but I do have a fondness for Trilogy.
They are all masterpieces!
That's why I can't decide....it depends on what mood I'm in.
Stumble It!
