I felt the same way. More time and more volume convinced me.

Fair, but you hate everything.
I like it but it's not my 'favorite' Rush album either to be honest. It had to grow on me. Now I enjoy it. However the theme of the album running in parallel with Neal's book gave them lots of ways to bring the live show together.

Just a couple of guys playing a gig at a pizza parlor, covering David Bowie's Space Oddity perfectly.

I just listened to several of their covers. They're good! I liked the cover of the Cranberries Linger as well.

The Division Bell. Sounds even better with 12 yr old Gibsons.
Half of communication is listening. You can't listen with your mouth.

John Butler Trio - April Rising. Caught these guys at Ottawa Bluesfest a few years ago and have been a fan ever since.

Love those guys. I saw them by accident a bunch of years ago and was blown away by the musical talent.
One thing that blew me away was how if your not paying close attention, they change instruments on you mid-song and you don't even notice until you look up or your brain finally goes "Hey they brought out a ____ player. (insert just about any instrument possible.) Oh wait, it's still the same three guys."
I think other than John Butler, the lineup was different when I saw them. Still great musicians though.

Chick Corea - Akoustic Band. Weckl's quite the drummer. Doucette wrote, "Jazz is just too crazy, he can play it when he's old". I'm getting there so I figure I should start listening a bit more and see about building some chops. Crazy stuff indeed.

Several years ago while searching out some blues tunes on Napster, I stumbled across a cajun blues guy named Tab Benoit. I liked his stuff back then so when I was in HMV last week I found a CD - 'Legacy: The Best Of Tab Benoit'.
It is 14 tracks of generally great stuff that have been meticulously recorded by the TELARC guys so the sound is smooth with full bass content & no compression. There are a couple of tunes that I'm not fond of (1 is a cajun country tune), but all in all this is a great compilation of his blues work. The final 10 minute track of 'Bayou Boogie' is the hottest boogie that I've ever heard. He has a great voice & plays a mean electric guitar that thankfully is not overdone.
Well worth the purchase...
