mainstream bands
Alex C:
Also, I'd take Phil Lynott over Geddy Lee when it comes to best "mainstream rock" bassist/vocalist hands down every time. I'm not what you'd call a big Thin Lizzy fan, but I think its hard to argue that Rush was the more influential band when you consider Thin Lizzy's use of galloping minor key rhythms and twin guitar leads married to rock melodies as early as the mid-70s. Meanwhile Rush has sterile production and too many drum solos. And hell, there's probably better choices than that, I'm just kind of too drunk to think of anyone else at the moment.

I don't find it that tough, but then again I play in 4/4 almost exclusively.

When your mom knows what it is.
Seriously.
Jackie Blue:
I actually like quite a few Rush songs. In most situations I would rather listen to them than Led Zeppelin.
I'd rather listen to any of Pink Floyd's first four albums than either, though.
bbqrocks:
I would rather listen to the beatles.
