Easily my favorite band as a teenager, I can still see most of my friends saying WTF,
are we in church? after rolling one up and listening to my collection of Yes Lp's.
Not sure I can recall a band drawing out such a range of emotions while listening to them,
except maybe Rusted Root much later in my life.

Good one. I've never really understood the people who felt that they ceased to matter after Gabriel left; they were still doing some really great stuff up through Duke, and even Abacab has occasional flashes of brilliance on it (Dodo is a personal fave).

Peart hadn't joined the band yet, they were still trying to find their own voice (do we want to be a Led Zep knock-off, or something else...), and quite frankly the album has some rough edges. But that opening guitar riff fading in, and Geddy yelling "Yeah, oh yeah!" to kick things off were a promise of great things to come. Still one of my favorite Rush songs all these years later... I've even still got my original vinyl copy of the album!

For gosh sakes, we have enough abbreviations in technology, can we please not abbreviate bands so much especially when there wasn't a reference to them already.

I think you're right!
I also vaguely remember something about "bisquits" and a "flour hour". I think they played commercial-free "sides" of albums. Something today's generation will never know in this era of MP3 files. But then there's Pandora, huh?
