Craig Charles an old-Rush fan, who knew?

RIP Nichelle Nichols

Crock of shit.

Michael Schenker played lead guitar on Lovedrive.

70s Scorpions has little in common with 80s and later Scorpions.

Kiss doing 2112? No thanks. Listened to it once - it’s garbage!

In Absentia is their breakout album and still sounds fresh today. Great mix of songs, sounds and Gavin’s jaw dropping drums.

I’m loving the album and the bonus tracks. To me this the album that The Incident should have been and is far better than that album. There’s not a lot of new ground but you can really hear the difference between this and a SW solo album. Gavin’s playing is off the charts good too.

What do you think?

I don’t like pop music.

Justin Bieber has a condition called Ramsey Hunt. And any Cockney will tell you it perfectly defines him…

Steven Wilson: 5/5: Hand Cannot Erase The Raven… 4/5: To The Bone 3/5: Grace For Drowning Insurgentes 2/5: The Future Bites

Never heard of him and not a Rush thread.

Love Beach?

Sad news. A great Prog drummer. RIP.

As far back as I can remember, I always wanted to be a gangster. Ray didn’t have too many great roles but it would have been almost impossible to top his part in Goodfellas and the way he brought Henry Hill to life. RIP Ray.

No one will ever better his Blade Runner soundtrack. Chariots of Fire is also pretty amazing. RIP Vangelis Papathanassiou.

Thin Lizzy and Judas Priest should be higher. I might intensely dislike 80s Priest but they practically invented twin guitar heavy metal.
