[bit.listserv.allmusic] By-Tor the Satanic Hero

HALLRL@MOREKYPR.BITNET (02/10/90)

Interesting Overseer, I never thought of By-Tor as being the 'Satanic Hero'
type like Heathcliffe from Wuthering Heights, but it makes sense for Peart to
use a device like that since he is into some good lit. like Ann Rand.  The
necromancer is the bad guy and gets banished from the land at the end of the
song, I've been on an old Rush kick lately, doesn't all the guys look really
funny on the back of 'Fly By Night'!

Ya I remember swill, shimmer (dessert topping and floor wax), and the beer made
from Idaho potatoes that was called Spuds (or something like that), crazy bunch
of people!

Rando, you think they look funny on fly by night, what about 2112?  Even NEIL
looks like a geek.
Just got 2112 on CD.  Or rather taped off a CD.
