Geddy Lee said what you`ve written above too. I think you`re taking this Lord of the Rings obsession a bit too far now...........especially with the name change!

So I can get either A Farewell To Kings or Permanent Waves for $7.50 brand new from Amazon. Do you guys think it's worth it? Or should I pick up some Priest/Who/Zeppelin/ACDC?

Zeppelin> Rush> Priest> Who> AC/DC

I think the Who as band are on the same level as Zeppelin and Rush, but they are let down by having a less consistent discography.

Presence is flat sounding hard rock album with only a couple of good songs especially the opening track "Achilles Last Stand". In Through the Out Door is about as bad as it gets really!!! Led Zep III though, is one of their classic albums and a must buy.
