Tab Discussion, Comments, and Critiques


No Picture The Great South Lead Player	#1 by The Great Southern Trendkill at Dec 11, 1977 at 4:20 AM EST
	seems to be about the basic 9-5 worker..........he feels his whole life is spent working and when he gets home he has no time for anything

No Picture Bobby Wanna Be	#2 by Bobby Warneke at Apr 10, 1997 at 4:31 AM EST
	This is a really good song and I'm not surprised people thought it was Zeppelin, The styles of Alex and Jimmy are very similer, and then Neil changed it all for the better.

No Picture Harry Average	#3 by Harry Johnson at Jun 7, 2004 at 7:28 PM EST
	Since it was so early on in Rush's career, the song was probably taken from several other sources. (Styles like The Who or Led Zeppelin would have used.) People were actually calling the radio when this came out thinking that they had heard fresh Zeppelin material. I don't believe it's a cover, however. Great song nonetheless. Put Rush on the map. =]

No Picture Matt Lead Player	#4 by Matt Miller at Apr 26, 2006 at 6:43 PM EST
	My theme song. I can definitely relate. I may go see these guys live.. sick. It'd be my first concert. :)
