My first Rush album was "Moving Pictures", as is the case with many. I was in highschool and was a SynthPop maniac. However, once I ran out of Men Without Hats, I started listening to anything that featured Synthesizers; they are truly magnificent instruments.
Eventually, I stumbled upon Moving Pictures and was completely hooked, and for the first time, it wasn't just because of the Synths....... I couldn't believe the musicianship! They have been my all time favorite band since. I've got "2112" "thru Signals" and plan on getting a whole lot more! In fact, I've even started learning Bass guitar, inspired by Geddy!
Other Favorite Bands
