Today, Rush bassist Geddy Lee turns 61-years-old. The Canadian musician joined what would become Rush in 1968 at the behest of his childhood friend, Alex Lifeson, and trio went on to sell millions of records and concert tickets over the span of more than four decades leading to the group’s 2013 induction into the Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame. Geddy’s distinctive, high-pitched vocals and remarkable bass work are signatures of the Rush sound and at the heart of such hits as “Tom Sawyer,” “The Spirit Of Radio” and “Closer To The Heart.”
