Hmm, seems the Radio-Active beavers are gonna get some work tonight. I find your comment highly INFLAMMATORY and greatly demeaning. Make fun of the lack of folicles, if you will, but leave the genitalia alone or Max will recieve some "HATE MAIL" from the Polish American Male Genitalia Anti-Defamation League" (eerrcchssss, kklambbie, swsh swsh fffllrpp clop clop clop.......)

It was a good album, but I have always thought that the production of Rush's 80s albums were sub-par to the days of Terry Brown.
