toymaker Posted December 15, 2014 Share Posted December 15, 2014 I'm listening to a pretty good live Hemispheres right now. The beginning part is cut off, but Lee's vocal performance seems pretty great, with a few exceptions. I don't think we should underestimate how brutally hard this must have been to sing, even for him. Hemispheres starts at around 59 minutes in. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RUSHHEAD666 Posted December 15, 2014 Share Posted December 15, 2014 Tusk is amazing. Everybody is on their game and it has Lindsey going nuts musically. What's not to love? Mick Wow! I never got into "Tusk." I found it quite boring. Maybe I should revisit the album. I'm a Peter Green guy over the commercial version of the band. It's all about the Green Manalishi With The Two Pronged Crown. Signed, Rob Halford 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RUSHHEAD666 Posted December 15, 2014 Share Posted December 15, 2014 :o :o :o :o :oYoungsters.... :) Youngsters? GUP and PoW are all older than me!I get that but there is something about living the 70's that just matters. I can't even explain it. The 80's stuff just seems much more palatable to the masses no matter the age of the individual. The 70's stuff just seems much more of a different style and not all folks tastes appreciate it. Young Ged. The voice etc.. But Rush are the only band of the sixties/seventies I love whose eighties work inspires me! Fleetwood Mac doesn't count as Mirage sounds like a seventies release.Not a fan of Tango in the Night? Not massively. Mirage is one of my favourite albums. It helped me cope through a rough patch (and it is sublime night time chill music). Oh yeah. I remember the world premiere of "Gypsy" on MTV. Definitely a popular tune in 1982. My fave song on that album is "Straight Back" - sung by Stevie Nicks. I have Tango in the Night and was disappointed by it. I love every song on Mirage. Tango is just faceless pop music. The best songs only really appeal when played live (the acoustic performance of Big Love on The Dance is 10/10). Tusk remains one of my top three albums by any artist. Twenty songs, I adore every single one (rare for a double album!) I absolutely LOVE "MIRAGE!" Signed, CAMEL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RUSHHEAD666 Posted December 15, 2014 Share Posted December 15, 2014 Three NO votes? It must be Geddy, Alex and Neil. Give me a fuckking break. The three people who voted no probably love "Vapor Trails" and "Test For Echo." And there would he absolutely no problem with that. Meh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Signed, Rob Halford Sometimes i think it was a bit cheeky for the band to keep the Fleetwood Mac name...especially as most of their greatest hits releases favour one era over the other (the divisive moment being the introduction of Buckingham Nicks). I am currently not much of a blues fan, so the earlier Peter Green albums are not high on my list of great music. I do adore Kiln House and Bare Trees though. Their last good album was Tango. I know i have slated it, but only in comparison to the run of albums from Fleetwood Mac-Mirage. I would take Tusk over ANY Rush album. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Book Of Love, Gypsy, Straight Back and Wish You Were Here are timeless songs! The album is another flawless work for me, and i think i rate it higher than Rumours (which i dearly love) and the uber awesome Fleetwood Mac of 75.

Disk98 Posted December 15, 2014 Share Posted December 15, 2014 Maybe I'll give this one more chance. I guess I'll listen to Hemispheres later on today. Why I've elected to put myself through such torture, I'll never know, but who knows? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lorraine Posted December 15, 2014 Author Share Posted December 15, 2014 A member was wondering if he is the only one who doesn't like the album, so I thought it would be a good topic for a thread. :)A member was wondering if he is the only one who doesn't like the album, so I thought it would be a good topic for a thread. :) Damn woman! You wrote this simple poll on the 11th of December and there are already 17 pages? You wrote a HIT my dear!I am quite impressed. Especially because "Hemispheres" is my all time favorite album in all of the world. Greatest album ever made in the galaxy. "The Sphere" says it all. Earl, thank you. I have to tell you that ever since the day you wrote about how you and your bride walked down to the aisle to the end of Hemispheres, I never listen to that part of the song without thinking of you. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lorraine Posted December 15, 2014 Author Share Posted December 15, 2014 Sorry to interrupt, but Hemispheres is f**king awesome.... ;)Thanks, Narps. How could anyone sully this thread by bringing FM and Tusk into it? I love them and the album, but they are off in another category, and aren't worthy to be uttered in the same breath as Rush and Hemispheres. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
