    Geddy's doubleneck is 4 string bass and 12 string guitar. When Alex starts his outro solo around 11:25 Geddy switches to the 12 string to play rhythm guitar behind the solo and stays there for the remainder of the song.

      @@denislatulippe8997 Sorry but no. It's a 12 string, Rickenbacker model 4080/12. Well documented in Geddy's Book of Bass p.386. Whenever he used a doubleneck for Xanadu it was always a bass and 12 string. There are 12 tuners on that small headstock, 6 on the sides and 6 on the back. Just look up images of just about any Rickenbacker 12 string headstock and you'll see.

    A Rush masterpiece, to see the true joy the 3 have in this concert. I was lucky enough to see them in 1981 on their moving pictures tour. Xanadu was played exactly like this video. Notice the brotherly love each have in playing together. Pure talent in rock history. To note the performance, at 10:09 Neil breaks a stick and throws it over his shoulder without any miss in the song.

  • @Kotic1959

    I saw Rush 9 times first in 74 at my high school. This is the best concert I saw for this song. Neil is like an orchestra Temple blocks, Triangles, Chimes, Glockenspiel, Tubular Bells, Bell Towers and lyricist he is "The Goat" "The Professor", Geddy Bass, Keyboard, Vocal, Rhythm Guitar "Goat" Alex the most underated guitarist top 5 easy. There is no other 3 man band that is even close...Canada Rocks!!!!!!!

  • @debbieplato5107
    @debbieplato5107 8 месяцев назад +8

    The song is based on a poem about a man who searches for Xanadu and immortality and he finds it and it is not as wonderful as he thought.
    Alex Lifeson and Geddy Lee have been best friends since they were 13 when they met in junior high. They started playing music together when they were 16 in 1968. Neil Peart joined the band in 1974 as their original drummer had health issues and couldn't tour. The three of them were like brothers. Three down to earth family guys who happened to be musical geniuses. Unfortunately Neil Peart passed from brain cancer in January of 2020.
    Geddy and Alex are still best friends and Geddy just put out a book called my Effin Life.

      Thank you debbieplato for being such a staunch defender of the faith. I've noticed you in many reactions throughout the years. Rush's music needs to be heard by each successive generation as possible. I think their legacy in music history is secure, But It doesn't hurt to help it along! Geddy's book is a tear jerker at times, But oh so good...

    Everybody talk about the skills of proffesor Neil Peart in drums, but no one seems realize that Geddy sings at the microphone with the mouth, plays the bass with the hands and plays the keyboard with the feet, all at the same time. And besides the virtuosity of Alex Lifeson in the guitar. What a such talented musicians!!

  • @donhadfield2835
    @donhadfield2835 8 месяцев назад +6

    Geddy is multi-tasking here, vocals, bass, rhythm 6-string guitar, keyboards, and bass pedals. Neil has a whole orchestral percussion section and Alex has ONLY a 6-string and 12-string guitar and whole bank of effects pedals. Just standard Rush...

    Based on Kubla Khan (Xanadu) by Samuel Taylor Coleridge Coleridge composed his poem, ‘Kubla Khan’, in a state of semi-conscious trance either in the autumn of 1797 or the spring of 1798 and published in 1816. The whole poem is pervaded by an atmosphere of dream and remains in the form of a vision. The vision embodied in Kubla Khan was inspired by the perusal of the travel book, Purchas His Pilgrimage. Coleridge had taken a dose of opium as an anodyne, and his eyes closed upon the line in the book, “At Zanadu Kubla Khan built a pleasure palace.” But this opened his creative vision, and the poem of about 200 lines was composed in this state of waking dream. On being fully awake, he wrote the poem down. The theme of the poem is unimportant. It describes the palace built by Kubla Khan, the grandson of Chengis Khan, the great rule of central Asia.

    Yes, Geddy has a very unique voice. But I think you can also identify the band by the style of the individual instruments as well. Nobody's style of guitar sounds like Alex's, nobody's bass sounds like Geddy's and nobody's drums sound like Neil's. Only the truly great bands can you identify them immediately with a signature sound.

    Good reaction, but I expected more. Having grown up with the mighty Rush, I guess you had to be there. Put yourself back in 1977 when this was released at the HEIGHT of the "disco era". This was the furthest thing from mainstream pop music. This was complex... majestic... and philosophical... all while being interesting, and extremely pleasurable to listen to. This was before backing tracks too. EVERYTHING you heard was being played live by THREE guys. 3 extremely brilliant human beings.
