| I was just listening to La Villa Strangiato a little while ago, and thought it might be a good match on a poll with Fracture. Which one do you like better? |

Fracture. Two of the most complex pieces from either band and oddly enough among my very faves. I tend to go in the other direction, but on here it just works......but yeah like I said Fracture.

La Villa Strangiato is an instrumental that you can sing along to. I know that the Rush haters don't like this song because they can't stand Geddy's voice.   -------------

Rush, La Villa Strangiato.------------- When he rides, my fears subside. For darkness turns once more to light. Through the skies, his white horse flies. To find a land beyond the night. |

Interesting comparison - Fracture for me, but nobody sounds more like King Crimson than Rush on LVS. Apart from King Crimson, of course. ------------- 'Like so many of you I've got my doubts about how much to contribute to the already rich among us...' Robert Wyatt, Gloria Gloom |

I respect Rush for being the musicians that they are, but I never listen to their music. Fracture definitely wins this one; I don't think there's much of a contest here. ------------- I am the funkiest man on the planet! |

Can't decide. One the one hand, "Fracture" is a tour-de-force in the Crimson catalog. On the other, where else can I hear both The Ramones and Raymond Scott being quoted other than "La Villa Strangiato". ------------- He looks at this world and wants it all... so he strikes, like Thunderball! |
