October 4, 201213 yr Author I definitely think Rush and Deep Purple should be in there. Especially Rush.Ā Yeah. Rush is a decade overdue. :nod:
October 5, 201213 yr I never heard of Rush :embarrassed:Ā Canadian Prog-Rockers. Think Genesis with a more annoying singer and weaker lyrics.
October 6, 201213 yr Think Genesis with a more annoying singer and weaker lyrics.Ā Comparing Rush to Genesis is like comparing apples to oranges.
October 8, 201213 yr Comparing Rush to Genesis is like comparing apples to oranges.Ā Because Genesis is far better? Sorry, I hate Rush almost as much as Radiohead.
October 8, 201213 yr Are the individual songs Smoke on the water, I love Rock and Roll, and Whiter Shade of Pale in the Hall? I know you can induct single songs and those all seem like they should be in there for me. The others like Heart, Rush, etc have many hits but those 3 sings seem pretty important, especially the first 2.
