    Guitarist Kevin Comeau details how his mind was blown by Alex Lifeson's playing dynamics that were both medieval and melodic, while also revealing the peculiar chord he lifts from their stash.

    I just discovered Crown Lands. As a Rush fan since 1976, it’s refreshing to hear these youngsters continuing to wave the Canadian Prog Rock flag!

    Kevin you have really good taste. So glad I discovered Crown Lands

    Kevin has good taste. It's one of my favorite Rush songs too. I first heard of Rush when I saw them in concert for that tour back in '77. I immediately fell in love with that album, and that song is still one of my all-time favorites! It's great hearing new prog artists reflect on these older influential albums and songs. I bought Crown Lands CDs and am excited to be able to watch a new band grow and mature.

    Lerxst , indeed a farewell to a king. Influential guitarist and band. Great episode.

    Saw Crown Lands open for Rival Sons and I've been hooked ever since. Saw you again last week in Ottawa and you both came out to the merch table to greet fans and take photos. So much talent and such nice people. Can't wait to see you again.

    That's very cool. Have Alex do a guest appearance on one of your songs man. That would be so awesome.

    Alex is such an underrated and overlooked guitarist. I mainly play bass myself but Alex is a big inspiration to me. Hell Rush is 1 of my favorite groups.
    Growing up i couldn't stand hearing tom sawyer on 101.5 wqut radio then fast forward to getting really big into music and playing bass my dad was like you need to listen to The Beatles (paul) Led Zeppelin (John Paul Jones) and Rush (Geddy) and from then on i was totally hooked... RIP Professor

      Overlooked? Perhaps.
      Underrated though? Never.
      I have--and will almost certainly maintain--that Alex was arguably only ever outshone by the two gentlemen that he chose to share the stage with for his career. In *any* other band, Alex would have certainly been the star & focus of the band, at the cost of never having been pushed so hard to grow his sound as he did. Long live Rush.

      He's massively rated and for good reason for decades

      @@lalligood He's underrated by most people not directly familiar with Rush. He just doesn't have the general name recognition of so many other guitarists.
      Now, as for Rush fans and real musicians? Yeah, THEY know Alex...

    I have just recently, like, this week discovered Crown Lands. I also honour the ideas behind their name.
    A Farwell To Kings was also one of my first Rush albums. I, too, learned the title cut, although I never learned the intro. Back then I was learning things out of a music book, and frequently the suggested chords were what we called "nose chords", as it looked like the only way to fret those chords was to use both hands *and* your nose. Similar thing happened with "The Trees". Thanks for the new look into A Farewell To Kings....I think I am now inspired to go and learn the intro! Thanx!

    I'd rather see Crown Lands do Rush album re-creations live than Primus. Actually, they should recruit Geddy as their bass player.

  • @capstevepoarch
    @capstevepoarch Před rokem +2

    I always have felt that Alex should be mentioned in the same breath as the absolute MASTERS and WOULD, if he had not shared a stage with Geddy and Neil every night... I'm sure he wouldn't have had it any other way, and I, for one, am grateful for that!
