there's no doubt that rudess is some kind of keyboard god, and i bet he is good at video games too...
but, i preffer every piece of keboard work on awak to anything rudess has done. i like what rudess does but im not a fan of blazing guitar solos at the best of times, so all the DT songs with like 5 guitar solos and keyboard solos just make me go..uh-huh. i appreciate the talent. but the keys bit in caught in a web is so cool. and space dye vest! has anyone heard Eve? it's on the awake bonus disc and it is AMAZING, and i think.. wow has kevin moore done anything in another band? i would listen.

He has OSI with Portnoy and a band called Chroma Key if I'm not mistaken. I'm pretty sure.

Those are must haves. Chromakey tends to be a bit more ambient though. OSI can rock hard.

LTE kick's ass

Yes they Do.

 

I only have the first album however, I need to get the others as well.

 

LTE is in a big part what brought Rudess over to DT

His arrival seems to coincide with my departure from liking this band. I don't care for BaldyRud at all. Well at least what he's done to DT. I'll take Kevin or Derek any day over Rudess. Moore was the best though.

I like Rudess because I think he's the most "Progressive" of all the DT keyboardists. The first DT album I listened to was the live album/dvd "Score". Espicially during the songs "Six Degrees of Inner Turbulance", and "Octavarium" on the live preformance I was strikingly reminded of Rick Wakeman.

 

I think Rudess is vital to the Progressive aspect of DT in a way that the Other Keyboardists weren't, and that's why I like Rudess.

 

Derek and Kevin were great, I am not knocking them for the record.

I just bought my first Dream Theater album today: "Scenes from a Memory"  I cant wait to pop it in new_thumbsupsmileyanim.gif

Tell us what you think! C'mon now... popcorn.gif

Yes. Is it over the top cliche Prog of rehashed ideas? Or is it the best thing that has ever happened to music?

(Actually I really like Home quite a bit. But I think it's because it reminds me of Tool and Zep. unsure.gif )

Then I think you'd like the post SFAM stuff. I prefer I&A through FII. Although Octavarium has some decent moments.
