I can't remember who the two musicians were, one of them was Tommy Shaw? It was a cd of cover songs that had influenced them as musicians. Just wondering if anyone here had picked it up and whether it was worth the buy.

I think you're referring to the Shaw/Blades cover album. Most people like it, but I think it blows ass. Rock singers covering "Summer Breeze" and those two scumbags Simon and Garfunkle aint my cup of tea. Tommy and Jack should be embarrassed.

Shaw Blades Influence. I think it's great. Check it out.

Gonna be some early fireworks, huh fucker?

Of all the cover albums I've ever purchased or heard, the only one I like much at all is Rush's "Feedback". The rest suck to no end.

Yup, Feedback is awesome.

Hmm...Didn't think you'd like it. You're not a Rush fan are you?

I love Rush, not a fan of all of it, but quite a bit.

Cool...I personally prefer the "2112" through "Moving Pictures" era, especially "A Farewell to Kings", but I love all eras of the band. I used to hate their mid to late 80s stuff but I've grown to love albums like "Signals", "Power Windows", and "Hold Your Fire". Alex Lifeson is a very underrated player, in my opinion. I'm not a huge fan of his solos but he's a great rhythm player.

They DO butcher "Dance with me", tho.

That song is the biggest disappointment on that album, IMO.
