Nice thread Cygnus. I've voted for Xanadu. Hemispheres has my favourite bass sound, I also have a sneaking regard for the bass on "Fly by night" and "In the end" (ATWAS version).

  That would be no 11 but I thought 10 would be better.

I like the one in YYZ, It sounds great. But don't play an instument and I know very little about playing bass so it's a pretty uneducated opinion.

The bass in Xanadu is sublime.........

The bass line in Marathon is also great... and also that cool outro on Territories.

i would have liked to see eye of the storm, or dare i say, big money ( goes around the ... )

even tho the lyrics are not all that great and the concepts a bit cheasy, the bass is good.

Cygnus X-1 has an awesome bassline.

But out of your choice I would say YYZ.

I would say Cygnus X-1, Anthem (very underrated IMO), and Natural Science have the best Lee basslines, but his fills in Subdivisions are utterly superb.

Wow, I didn't expect that so many people would share my pick for favourite Geddy-bassline, which is... YYZ!
