Leave That Thing Alone. The live versions are even better.

 

I almost picked that one as well, but Alien Shore, while not a classic Rush tune, does feature some underrated bass work by Geddy.

After watching those vids, I'm inclined to agree.

Alien Shore would definitely be my second pick.

Alex's guitar work in that song is under-the-radar good, too. Tasty playing with a great tone.

I have always loved Alex's guitar on this song. Switching around between hard cords and really light and flighty sounds, it is another example of hearing Rush and thinking How many guitarists are playing?

But about the bass - so loose and putting a really busy but clear "bottom" on the whole song, awesome! Some songs, when I hear Geddy play I can see his fingers moving with the sounds he makes.

I think it is an under appreciated song of theirs, I love it.

 

"You and me! [Do] We agree?!"

Not sure I would call Roll The Bones "wimpy", but decent point. Counterparts is a return to rock, of opinion, but harder, better-er :)
