I think he’s top 10, but I’m scared to count it out.

My opinion precisely.

I have a couple of bands which rotate as my favorite, but Rush is always up there.

A Show of Hands is a great album: it has more heft than the studio albums and as a collection of songs is much more listenable than the 4 studio albums from which it primarily gets its songs. But it’s not in the same league as the other 2. ATWAS is great for a rawer performance with significant changes to sounds of the songs. But as a collection of songs in a semi-live setting, ESL is the best.

I enjoy listening to Xanadu now more than Stairway, but Stairway is better.

The Spirit of Radio is an all time classic. Natural Science is a good Rush song.

Even in the second half with Queen you had parts of Pinball Wizard, Kashmir, and Thank You. Bowie performed Heroes, Hunter did All The Young Dudes.

I love Pearl Jam, but I’m surprised to see Ament up there. What are you favorite tracks which feature him?

Meh, I like them. It’s not like I’ll be throwing away my old albums.

Around 6-8 for me.

At the Freddie Mercury tribute concert, there were bands playing their own music and bands playing Queen music. Both seemed appropriate.
