I don’t blame her, even though there is no Jon Lord (greatest rock keyboard player ever) nor Ritchie Blackmore. Deep Purple’s Maid In Japan is one of the greatest live rock albums, and them traveling to Japan to tour was a huge deal for rock bands back in 1972 Japanese Prime Minister Takaichi thrilled by […]

One of my favorite Rush songs all time, plus, the version of Exit…Stage Left is dynamite I’ve deactivated the plugin that allowed things like making text bold, adding links, etc, in the comments to see if it speeds up comments.
