Sure,
RUSH is the greatest band in the world... but that's not the point of this post-ette; this
IS NOT a music blog.
:)While listening (way too loud too... huh?) yesterday to
RUSH's 1996 masterpiece
TEST FOR ECHO (their 16th slab of sonic alchemy)... I noticed that at about the 2:45 point of
Alex Lifeson's instrumental goodie (
LIMBO) that the boys
"sample" the great iconic line (you know the one - - the great spoken line/question from
Dracula) that appears in
MONSTER MASH, arguably the greatest
HORROR/MONSTER music schtick in the history of novelty recording from
Bobby "Boris" Pickett.
And the art work on the cover of the album (above) along with a couple of interior art-pieces, in a
"side-ways" kind of way channels some
Lovecraftian Antarctica vibes of cyclopian dread (The Mountains of Madness).
COOL!
