Crap. RIP
:(
His playing brought me joy. His lyrics spoke to me. I am crushed. RIP Neil.
I was listening to the radio driving home instead of my phone and heard this and the string of rush songs that then played.
I'm pretty broken up on this. This is becomes my biggest musical regret not seeing rush play when I had the chance. That and not seeing bb King when I had the chance when he was alive.
Damn.
I quoted Neil from Spirit of the Radio at the start of my dissertation.
My dissertation was on avoidance of car radio advertising.
"Invisible airwaves crackle with life;
Bright antenna glisten with the energy.
Emotional feedback on timeless wavelength;
Bearing a gift beyond price almost free."
Best quote from a rock song I could find back in 1987 to start my dissertation off with that fit my topic.

Well said. I'm just lost for words.
