>>First off, I'm not a fan of Rush. Having said that, I must admit that the intro to that single (Fry Cry) sounded great...until Geddy started to sing. Arrrrggghhh I can't stand to hear that man's singing voice. There is just something about his vocals that gets under my skin.

>IMHO, Bobby Mcferrin, Ella Fitzgerald, Kurt Elling, Janis Siegel... those are vocal wizards. Lee is a guy who sticks his mouth on the mike and yells. No better or worse than a couple hundred others.


Hasn't Harry Potter taught us that there are good wizards and bad wizards?
