WHAT ARE YOU LISTENING TO......RIGHT NOW......Mk III

There was some interesting material on those first few TL albums, I like Eric Bell’s playing a lot…he really paved the way for the melodic guitaring that would characterize the band.
On a side note. My brother said there's a tale of nerd rocker Geddy Lee, drinking hard boozing and what not Phil Lynott, under the table. Phil asked if Geddy had a wooden leg.
 
That actually seems quite feasible…judging by this soirée at least :bigg:


I believe the drinking contest took place in the back of a van. I also think Scott Gorham and Alex were there. Don't quote me on any of this.

That's a classic video you posted. I really like all 3 members of Rush. Good dudes. What a bummer about Neil.
 
I've played this before, I will play it again.

This is how all bass should sound live. The Colin Towns Mr. Universe intro. The Cozy intro. The Lynott backing vocals. The Gary leads. Scott Gorham!

 


Love this. And Rikard Sjöblom's guitar solo in particular. He really is freakishly talented. Great guitar player, insane keyboardist nevermind songwriter and singer.
Knopfler-esque and a half in this one, and it's a prog tune.

Gary’s playing is amazing, I wish he had done more w/ Thin Lizzy…no disrespect to any of the other Lizzy guitarists, all superb, but Gary was something special. And he could sing too. This is another clip I revisit often, def. one of my favorite live clips by anyone. Gary busts a string but he still can’t be stopped.
