Re: Mindwalk - 11-13 yr. olds covering Rush, Uk, King's X, and more! Amazing!

They cover "YYZ" and "Limelight" by Rush, "We Were Born to be Loved" by King's X, "Fat Bottomed Girls" by Queen, "In the Dead of Night" by UK, and more, including some originals. Excellent stuff.

OK, these were the kids I saw at Progday on the computer. Saw the Rush and the UK..had to admit, I didn't like the Limelight. This is the first I've seen of the Kx tune. And conversely, I have to admit that blew me away! One of the most complicated pieces, what a song to pick....the syncopation and the stop and starts on that are difficult.

Thanks Spaz...

by the way vax, I know the line-up of uk, have their two CD's, and know their lineage and subsequent offshoots. And I like Danger Money a bit better than the first. More cohesive, and Wetton's singing is much cleaner. Of course they're both great. Not putting one down against the other.
