If I were to get a tattoo I always thought I would get the Egyptian Eye in the Sky on the cover of the album by Alan Parsons. I was a huge fan way back when.

I think Alan Parsons was one of the sound engineers on Dark Side of the Moon

Rainbow.

Yep, Blackmore is one of the best guitarists. Man, Dio was one of the greatest vocalists.

Ronnie James Dio

I’m a big Canadian music buff and fan, love if I had a rocket launcher.

Underrated bands, Triumph, April Wine, Prism, Chilliwack and Saga, plus many more...

I have an extensive collection, Guess Who, Tropper, BTO, Loverboy, Honeymoon Suite, Rush, Harlequin, Teenage Head, Doug the Slug, FM etc...

And of course, Gordon Lightfoot

Yes he was, his career (Alan Parsons Project) took off and was unavailable for Wish you were here.

Both, I have the vinyl safely tucked away and stored for when I want to play them.

He wasn't just the engineer, he was the producer.

All for the grand sum of 5 pounds per week!

Wow, I didn't know any of this before I became a fan. It made sense when I first heard about his involvement on DSOTM

I never really thought about it to be honest.

I may have to go listen to some Alan Parsons

I cant listen to any music these days except the video for I sit on Acid by Lords of Acid... I can't take my eyes off the lead singer chick.

Those little tidbits of info.

Santers band, who would tour all around Toronto, kept getting their gear stolen, Rik Emmett of Triumph would regularly lend him his guitars, years later, Rick Santers would become the second guitarist on tour with Triumph.

I have so much Canadian content, I forgot about Toronto, the Spoons, Headpins etc.. lol.

lemme guess, he's all into rock with "deep" lyrics from bands barely anyone has heard of like you see on a lot of the best of all-time lists

He thought that you should reach for a Flaming Lips album instead of Pink Floyd, which I find kind of hilarious because they'd cite Floyd as one of their biggest influences.

Cool - I have a nice little vinyl collection. Love wish you were here - also love Atom Heart Mother and Meddle. Saw the original band many times - were one of the best touring live bands around. Gilmour was an under rated guitarist

Great album

The very first time I saw The Hip was at the side of the stage at The Horseshoe Tavern. That night changed my life.

Once upon a time, Dan Ackroyd owned a kareoke bar in downtown Kingston called Birthdays.

One night we stumbled in, and Ackroyd was singing songs, backed up by the Hip.

It was a HOLY POOP moment.

Sadly, Donna Dixon wasn't there.
