If we are talking LotR-inspired Rush songs, I will choose The Necromancer over Rivendell 10 times out of 10. Pretty pastoral songs are not what I want from Rush, and just seems so out of place amongst a bunch of rocking tunes. But at least it led me to this one-a-day Rush substack, to which I just subscribed, so thank you, Matt!
I don't know if you are following the current Tales from the Smoking Wyrm Kickstarter, but it includes Trevor's new pad of Vital Signs character record sheets for DCC. Trevor is a Rush superfan. It might be fun to poke his brain about their influence on him.
Yes! I'm a big fan of Tales from the Smoking Wyrm. I am backing the current Kickstarter and have all the previous issues. I remember hearing Trevor mention Rush on a podcast appearance. Would love to have an in depth conversation with him about the band.

A fun Tolkien inspired album is by Sweden's own, Bo Hansson.
He created a psychedelic infused album called, Music Inspired by the Lord of the Rings.
Yes! That's been on my radar to talk about at some point.
