  6. A Farewell To Kings

    #rush #afarewelltokings #progressiverock #70srock #classicrock #rock #rockmusic #Music #musicsky #Musiciansky #geddylee #neilpeart #alexlifeson On September 1, 1977, Rush releases their 5th album. This is the one that followed the iconic 2112 that includes the also iconic "Xanadu" -- an 11-minute prog-rock masterpiece featuring that double-neck guitar/bass for Alex and Geddy. And, the title track -- a statement on greed and political decay.

    #rocknrollhighschool #70srock #rock #rockmusic #theramones #music #musicsky #musiciansky Rock 'n Roll High School opens in theatres on August 24, 1979. The title song becomes one of their classics, and the film gains a cult following. I have it in the collection but, like Riff's math book, I only bring it out on special equations.
