Geddy Lee is a gifted vocalist. He just hasn't got a good voice. A genuine giant of Rock music though.

Dave Matthews has a veeery castrated voice. Maybe this is off topic, but I like DM. |

| for me its a love hate relationship for the majority of these types of signers, i can tolerate them but after to long i need to turn the sound off. (Dont get me wrong, I even just purchased my first rush album and i like it very much) Except for john anderson, i love that guys vocals for some inexplicable reason. |

| Thats because Jon's voice is ethereal and Geddy's sounds like puberty is kicking his ass. If you want great vocals and great lyrics (and a great band all-around) try Gentle Giant. Gentle Giant has two vocalists that each do what they do very well; the one has great power and timing and the other has a beautiful falsetto. |

| I don't think Robert Plant fits into this category at all. He had plenty of range, wonderful voice in my opinion. |

MB: For what it's worth, it's "testicles," not "testacles." Also, there is a difference between singing in falsetto and "castrati." Any good singer can sing in falsetto. My problem with naming Jon Anderson here is that he doesn't always sing in that range; we simply have the perception that he does because we are so familiar with it. Whereas Geddy Lee really does seem to have a single, limited range that is high tenor/falsetto. By the "definition" inherent in this thread, where would you put someone like Freddy Mercury? David Bowie? Phil Shulman? All had "high" voices, but were not "limited" to that range. Peace. |

i think it more depends on what the rest of the band
is playing to back it up. for example, i don't see yes or rush doing any john lee hooker songs anytime soon. ------------- *Remember all advice given by Asuma is for entertainment purposes only. Asuma is not a licensed medical doctor, psychologist, or counselor and he does not play one on TV.* |

couldn't agree more! the high pitch of geddy lee's voice really makes the music fresh and energizing once you stop laughing your head off about it. if you really want a good kick, take any rush lp and play it at the 45 speed... whew! ------------- I bleed coffee.

I like high voices. Burke Shelly in Budgie as well. Geddy's voice has come down a few octaves now anyway. I like his new voice too. |
