The Only Other Band Geddy Lee Would Join Immediately: The Moving Tribute to The Who's John Entwistle

Geddy Lee, Rush's legendary bassist, has a deep connection to classic rock. The only other band he would "heart" is The Who - specifically to replace his hero John Entwistle, the "Ox", who is no longer with us. "I would be in The Who playing bass because one of my heroes is no longer with us," Lee revealed. Entwistle was a revolutionary bassist: incredible solos, complex lines and aggression that influenced generations. Lee admires his technique on tracks like "My Generation" and "The Real Me." Despite Rush's progressive style, Lee grew up listening to hard rock like Led Zeppelin and The Who, bringing that energy to his signature bass. This admiration shows the mutual respect between rock legends. Pete Townshend, Roger Daltrey and Entwistle's legacy continue to inspire. If you're a fan of Rush, The Who or virtuoso bass players, read this full story and listen to the aforementioned tracks to understand the impact!
