I think the man himself would agree with you….. from the Telegraphs obit……

Looking back over his career, he once reflected: “I’m not a flashy drummer. All I ever wanted was to be a great accompanist.”

Thanks – I actually have that but haven’t gotten around to watching. Looks like it’s moving to the top of the watch list…..

Which one are you referring to ?

Netflix here don’t have listed, but I know of two Rush documentaries…..

– Beyond The Lighted Stage from 2010
– Time Stand Still from 2016

I still do – although through the HiFi it’s usually reserved for those days when wife and two teenage boys are out and I’m home all alone, enabling me to crank up the volume.

Other than that, if I really wan […]

If I remember correctly, I posted this a couple of years ago from his appearance on Later…..

I was impressed at the time (but I think my post met with almost complete silence….)

My wife does something similar once a week and has been trying to drag me along. At the moment, I feel it’s too much and I don’t have the motivation to start – baby steps and all that…….

Thanks all. Some good food for thought.

The main plan at the moment is to start something that I will continue with – the gym / swimming is a relatively easy option which I feel has a good chance of me […]

I’ve never really liked running since young. It’s probably something to do with the way I breath (through the mouth not nose – to do with childhood hay fever ??). I was always a cyclist / swimmer when you […]

Funny you should mention that – I just last week took the retrenchment package after 18+ years of work.

I’m just turned 52 and with a package 18 months salary, which is tax free and so pushes up by another 3 m […]

Any excuse to post some Kate……

Spirit of Eden remains one of my all time favourite albums and is still listened to on a regular basis. I have a very good hi-res Sony music player with good headphones that is my late night listening – the tracks […]
