Pros: Some extremely good Rush-like songs
Cons: Some average Rush-like songs, too
Summary: Rush has been one of my favorite bands for years, so I had to pick up a copy of Geddy Lee's solo album as soon as I learned it was available. Lee, of course, is the bassist/keyboardist for Rush, and he provides the band's falsetto lead vocals, too. Lee ...

Pros: Wonderful singing, a few great songs, good sounding album.
Cons: Far too much singing, too many mediocre songs. No lyric sheet.
Summary: In the year 2000, while waiting for his fellow Rush band mate Neil Peart to recover from the death of his daughter and his wife, Geddy Lee wrote some songs with his longtime buddy Ben Mink (who played electric violin on the Rush song Losing ...

Pros: Some interesting ideas, lyrics at times, not much else
Cons: Production, mostly boring, not technically impressive, soft
Summary: I am Rush fan and a Geddy Lee fan so that makes this a little difficult. In fact I hate to write this but I have to: If you are thinking about buying it you may want to go the used route. Part of me wants to be more forgiving because I am comparing...

Pros: Enough deviation from Rush to make this a legitimate solo effort.
Cons: Are you kidding?
Summary: I think it only fair to start this review off by saying that I have been a VERY serious fan of Rush since 1980. If asked who my favorite group is, I'd answer Rush without hesitation.
THAT being said, I was obviously very anxiously awaiting the...

Pros: Great sound, flows well from one song to the next
Cons: Might not be what you expected
Summary: I'll admit it. As a die-hard Rush fan, I was longing for news that a new album was forthcoming. After all, Rush's last album was their 1996 release Test for Echo. So, when news hit the internet that Geddy Lee (bass player and vocalist for Rush)...

Pros: Great CD for Rush fans and other fans of the Rush sound.
Cons: For those looking for something "outlandishly different than Rush", it isn't.
Summary: I am an avid Rush fan, so naturally I was in line to buy Geddy Lee's first Solo CD as soon as it went on sale. I personally think that Geddy Lee is a musical genius. After hearing the first single "My Favorite Headache" on the radio, I could tell that...

Pros: Terrific, strong vocals, and a terrific line-up backing him up
Cons: People will always say it sounds just like Rush
Summary: After a long period of inactivity from Rush, Geddy Lee has created a luscious solo album entitled, My Favorite Headache. This album was just released on November 14, 2000, and albeit I hadn’t heard about the anticipated album or even about...

Pros: It's a little bit of Rush, no falsetto voice that I could hear, just Geddy's nice deep singing voice.
Cons: It's just Geddy, some might say it's not 'original', they'd probably be right
Summary: but, it sounds like Rush. I'm not going to analyze the album because I don't like to do that to music. I'll leave that to the musicians. :) I didn't even know that Geddy had a solo album until I picked it up from the radio station I'm working for. It was...

Pros: Similar to Rush
Cons: Not enough variety for non Rush fans.
Summary: Back in the 70s and 80s Rush produced some classic music ranging from albums like ‘Fly by Night’ , ‘Caress of Steel’ to the album ‘Power Windows’ which signified a slight turning point and modernization for Rush. Geddy Lee, the bass guitarists and...

Pros: New music taken to a new height.....
Cons: Too bad only a single CD
Summary: As a RUSH aficionado, there was great anticipation for the Geddy Lee solo project (My favorite Headache). I was not disappointed. From the opening title track the thoughtful melodies (multiple bass lines), haunting guitar work from Ben Mink, and...

Pros: Personally revealing & technically clean
Cons: Not all that different from Rush
Summary: With My Favorite Headache, we’re given the second installment of “what Rush men do when not with other Rush men”, the possibility of which lately seems to occupy the thoughts of everyone remotely involved with the group, including...
