Surely there are RUSH fans born in the 40s?

60's

[RushCanuck]

50's. The benefit of being born during this decade is I was able to experience the music of the 60's.

1971 The Yes Album (Yes) Fragile (Yes) Aqualung (Jethro Tull) Tarkus (ELP) Who's Next (The Who) Meddle (Pink Floyd) Pawn Hearts (VdGG) Teaser and the Firecat (Cat Stevens) Led Zeppelin IV Pictures at an Exhibition (ELP) Islands (King Crimson) Just the ones I knew well from the Wikipedia list: there are many, many more.

71 was an incredible year as well.

 

If I had to pick a year, it would probably be a 4 way tie between 1969, 1970, 1971, and 1972. I could argue any one of those years as being the best.

 

Oh..... the good old days of rock and roll. When it really was about making a statement against THE MAN and not about making money.

Well, I wouldn't call my mom a Rush fan, but she did go to the Time Machine movie with me (since she knows the area where the theater is far better than I do). She was born in 1939

My mom is 78, and she's been into classical music

most of her life.My grandmother was a classical

pianist,so that's all she's ever known. She wouldn't

know a rush if it landed in her lap!!..that's alright,though.

Every generation has their own musical tastes.

My dad was into 40's bigband and jazz and country.

He used to play Willie Nelson and Johnny Cash all

the time. I used to come home from HS in the 70's,

and he'd be blasting 40's bigband in the garage,so

that the whole neighborhood could hear it...I'd say

" dad..what'a doin??..are ya tryin to ruin my rock and roll

reputation??..geez..." Now, I wish he was still here to do

that...
