#75 Rush

Rush is the most eclectic band around. They have been a blues-rock band, a sci-fi band, prog rock, alt rock, classic rock, and hard rock. They have influenced bands ranging from Metallica to Symphony X to Primus. Only the Beatles, Stones, and Aerosmith have had more consecutive gold or platinum albums. Their fan base is the most loyal in music. Despite their achievements and success, they are continually ignored for induction into the Rock n Roll Hall of Fame. They belong in over Madonna, Grandmaster Flash, and others. However, the band does not seem to care.

Rock n Roll Moment: Geddy Lee donated 200 baseballs signed by Negro League greats to the Negro Leagues Museum in Kansas City.

Essential Rush: 2112 (1976), Permanent Waves (1980), Moving Pictures (1981)
