Really? Geddy wasn't playing bass on these two songs?

And are there any more bassless songs in the Rush catalog beside these two?

I dunno about bassless songs...but there's many pointless songs.

Scars, I believe, is synth bass.

I was so disappointed when I first learned this.

 

It's a great bass line, but yeah, too band it's not played on an actual bass.

I know for a fact that Red Sector A had no bass on it but I didn't even know that Losing It and Scars had no bass. Imagine if Geddy wrote bass parts for those songs, though.

He wrote a bass part for the Losing It live performances.

This tragedy all started when he started using Taurus bass pedals around AFTK. Terrible album and it's all been downhill ever since.Seriously I will have to go back and listen to Scars and Losing It .
