One of the things that really helps Geddy Lee maintain this oft magical voice of his is that he regularly dines on Honeydew and drinks the Milk Of Paradise.

Geddy sings with a Canadian accent. I love his voice, always have. They played my Toronto high school with original drummer John Rutsey. I went to see them for free or for a small cover charge in Toronto bars before their first album came out. I paid to see them open for other bands at Maple Leaf Gardens. Their slow but steady ascent to the top levels of rock, and the ability to maintain their success (even through the very rough 90's years when drummer Neil Peart's daughter and wife died in quick succession) makes them unique. They never sold out musically, they quit with the same dignity they carried themselves with for 40+ years. I grew up in the same area as Geddy and Alex, but was 5 years younger than them. They didn't take fame seriously, but they took their craft seriously.

@alukuhito Год назад

That's cool, but I definitely think fame was a motivation for them though. When they were young they definitely wanted to be rock stars. Also, they started in the 70s, when excess was pretty much synonymous with rock music. They didn't just want to be good. They wanted to be good, playing to thousands, if not tens of thousands, of people at a time.

I remember a interview with Geddy from the early 1980’s where he talks about having to wear a lot of hats and especially when playing their songs live. He does all the vocals, he plays bass and keyboards sometimes all 3 at once and he quit smoking, stopped eating dairy products and stopped talking a lot when they were touring to help maintain & improve his voice. All 3 of them were always giving us fans 110%. No matter if it was on the album’s or onstage playing live. They kept that quality throughout their 42 years together.

@mlinderict Год назад

Geddy placed his voice to cut through the mix, particularly on older works. If you hear him speak (many interviews available), he is not "squeaky" when he speaks. If you look at Neil's same-song performances year-on-year, the strength and force is always there; the toll that playing took on his body was very real!

@roy19491 Год назад

I saw Rush before they ever had a recording contract (early to mid 70's).....they did club tours across Southern Michigan heading towards Illinois angling back around Lake Eire, returning to Toronto......Geddy and Alex were great guys, interacting with audiences between sets.....my favorite song from them is "Limelight"

@georgesabol459 Год назад

You had to be there live, in person. Power trios are the best. Nowhere to hide. You're all up front. Mr. Peart was also into creative switching triggers. He's not playing guitar, it's bass , keyboard plus Taurus pedals, also bass pedals. There is more going on here than most people understand. They did not allow any sound or fill to be added by the mixing board techs. Truly great in all respects. I'll miss never being able to see this magic live again.

He had some, let's call them "mental issues" and suffered from horrible depression. He recently told me that me turning him onto Rush probably saved his life. He would listen to those two albums in the middle of the night and they got him through some very dark times. Those are the 2 most "spiritual" albums that I know of.

@beerzerker8359 Год назад

I feel like their last album really encompassed the evolution of Geddy as a singer. Some of his vocal lines are really moving and honed, compared to their early records where you can tell he just kind of did whatever he could.

The music style does make a big difference in the vocalist 'fitting in'. Two other examples would be Ozzy Osbourne and Les Claypool. Two vocal styles that only work with the music they play.

Geddy has always said that with Peart's lyrics and flow he pretty much had to learn the bass parts well enough to become automatic so he can concentrate on singing.

I don't know if your kimono is a nod to Geddy's kimono phase, but I love it either way, it's a nice touch! Thanks for another great video!

Glad I got to see them live once (Time Machine tour, 2011). They put on a great show.

Oh I have just a love of Canadian Bands and musicians and vocalists. The musicianship here is so great. Only 3 musicians producing so much sound. This is more reminiscent of an eight piece band. Geddy Lee carried 100% of the vocal load and did it well. No one sounds like him, and no group sounds like Rush. So good.

When you have an hour you should watch the entire Exit....Stage Left concert from 1981. It has what many Rush fans call their best performance ever, Xanadu.

it's so hard to play the bass and sing.. the bass timing is not the singing timing.. not too many lead singers play bass.. McCartney .. Lemmy (RIP).. Sting in Police.. probably many more .. so you doing all this vocal stuff and keeping a totally different thing going on with the bass .. amazing. Thanks for doing this one

Look up Rob Wynia, first band Floater out of Portland Oregon. He now has some colab and solo out I believe. You can find him on spotify or youtube.

And besides those 2 Geddy also manages to play the keyboard at the same time with his feet. Mental.

I'd love seeing you react to their final tour. I am a huge Rush fan, was lucky enough to see them 5 times live since I discovered them, but man, his voice did age like fine milk.

@robadams1645 Год назад

I've had this discussion with a few Rush fans. I've always said that his voice was pretty much shot after R30. Yes, he can still get the notes out (mostly) but he's obviously struggling to do so. But I've heard people say "he's never sounded better". I think they are just reluctant to appear to criticize anything about Rush. It's OK to admit that a singer you love can't quite do it as well as he used to.

Geddy is truly UNIQUE not in most critics list of Top vocalists but any rock from knows Geddy when we hear him. ICONS

I absolutely agree with your comment at the end that Geddy Lee is immensely illustrative of the fact that what works for one person may not work for another and that embracing our particular strengths is what works best. I've listened to Rush for years off and on, and when I'm not thinking of them, I think nasal voice = bad. But he proves it can work and just not be an issue, because I quite enjoy his voice. Because he made it work for him and his anatomy and embraced his unique abilities, he sounds fantastic. While nasality bothers me with many people speaking or singing, it just doesn't with him. Thanks for another great analysis and keep it up!
