I have never wanted anyone to drop dead more than I want that orange sack of shit to drop dead. The world's worst person.

Everybody's talking at once on this tune, especially at the beginning.

Westworld. The first season is great. The remaining seasons are staggeringly bad.

I think capital punishment should be abolished for a number of reasons, the main one being if a single innocent person is put to death (and it has surely happened) the entire system is flawed. Life without parole should be the maximum punishment.

I cannot wait for this fat f*ck to drop dead. Just the world's most detestable human.

You can remaster this and Presto as many times as you want but they'll still sound awful because Rupert Hine's production was a bad fit for the band. What he does really worked for The Fixx but completely castrated Rush's meatier sound. All you need to do is listen to live tunes from Presto and RTB.

Ben Orr was a great singer and bassist. I wish he had made more solo albums as The Lace was pretty darn good. www.youtube.com/watch?v=2ySL...

The b-side was originally "Madrigal" so I'm thinking that going back to the future and replacing that with "The Trees" was worth the possible disruption to the space/time continuum.

Actually, Simon Phillips replaced Kenney Jones. Zac followed Simon.

Posting this for no other reason than it's a fantastic song. John Entwistle's "Too Late the Hero" performed live by short-lived supergroup The Best, consisting of Entwistle, Keith Emerson, Jeff Baxter, Simon Phillips and Joe Walsh. www.youtube.com/watch?v=C3-T...

Absolutely this. If this has taught us anything it's that 30-35% of the people in this country are ok with racism, misogyny, lying, cheating, corruption, etc, etc. It's not just a fringe element of our society and that's probably the scariest thing of all.

The album track might be the heaviest song The Who ever recorded. Right up there with some of the stuff on Live at Leeds www.youtube.com/watch?v=7dlN...

I can't choose between these. Very different but both are fantastic.

This is a good one. Live at Maryville is another Pete standout.

I know I'm in the minority, and I know all the reasons U2 ran into trouble on October, but I love this album. It's raw and imperfect in the best ways. I hear seeds of both The Unforgettable Fire and War.

I remember seeing these guys in KC when they were still called Steve, Bob and Rich. Good band.

Not my favorites or anything but nothing takes me back as quickly as these two.

His incredible bass playing and vocals are all over this (he even plays some piano).

There are definitely times when I am not happy I live here. This is one of them.

That was the first album I bought with my own money. Being from the suburbs of KC I was always very proud of Kansas and what they accomplished. And even though no original members tour with them, the current version of Kansas puts on a great live show.

I love a lot of LPs from all their different eras but this is my favorite studio album by them, that's for sure.

Blue Oyster Cult opening for Rush. Not only were they great, they came out, played 5 awesome songs and got the f*ck out so everyone could see Rush.

A great pop album that still sounds as fresh today as the day it was released.
