Skyscrapers was a good one. That was the tour he was on when I saw him live. Steve Vai plays some excellent guitar on that album; and Billy Sheehan on bass isn't too shabby either. Scratch that last part, Billy Sheehan was already gone at that point.

Actually, I'll be driving into Quebec City to go to this awesome record store and it's pretty high on my priority list.

Steve Vai is awesome. And the album is amazing.

Was that one of the DLR records?

I don't see any Rush on that list, so I obviously had no influence.

Oddly enough, despite being somewhat of a Steve Vai nut, I've never heard any of the DLR records. Sheehan is a crazy man, love his playing.

That's a good list, June. I'm especially glad for the HC, Magma, Gryphon, Mahavishnu, Gentle Giant, and Gong.

I haven't ordered it. I will highlight the important ones when I print it.
And my Rush In Rio DVD was enough of an effort in the Rush area...

It's David Lee Roth, so his solo stuff is pop metal, but for the most part if you like Van Halen with DLR there is a good chance you'll like DLR solo. If you don't than you might not.
Billy Sheehan is a heck of a bass player. I learned of him with DLR and picked up a Shy Boy compilation which is pretty good. I followed him to Mr. Big, who were a decent 80's metal band, and then was surprised to find him playing jazz/fusion/prog with Niacin, who are an awesome band.

Still not high enough.  It needs to be: 1. Henry Cow 1. All the Rush you forgot to add to that list 2. Everything else

Magma actually gives me the willies, I actually hope they won't have any records 
BTW, is there another band called Magma? Or did they go through some pop phase?
I heard some song last night (can't remember the name, or the album, of course) and really wondered WTF?
