Any young fans who do not know of them, they are a Canadian rock band from Willowdale, a suburb of Toronto. They have three members, lead singer and bass player Geddy Lee, guitarist Alex Lifeson and drummer/lyricist Neil Peart. They formed in 1968 and disbanded three years ago, probrably because of Neil's illness. They were a superb live band and excellent musicians and songwriters. I have most of their albums.
My two other favourite bands are Genesis and Led Zeppelin, and they are like a fusion between the two. They are more popular in the US and Canada, but have a big cult following in the UK and are Canada's most popular band. They have also inspired many other artists over the years. Listen to their 2112 anthem - side one of their album of the same name. It is superb, and is all of them playing and pushing the bounds of musical talent. Wonderful band, complex music and inspiring lyrics, some about sci-fi but a lot about life's struggles.
