Thanks for sharing....

On the possible omission list:

Koufax

Bob Hayes

Jesse Owens

AJ Foyt
I'm about 96.57439% sure I saw Jesse Owens.

My point is that fans of teams LOVE to hear their team being talked about, whether it's good or bad, with respect or void of it.

Other than Geddy's neat little tamperings on the bass in that song, The Body Electric is pretty unlistenable. Easily the worst song off GUP. Lyrically, it's just too cheesy...even for Neil Peart.

The synths are placed in a more complimentary style on Power Windows, whereas HYF, the synths drive a lot of the songs (take Mission, for example). One album isn't really more synth than the other, they were just placed in different ways.
