Late Night Musical Interlude. . .

Can't find sleep tonight, so let's admire some music together.

Alex Lifeson, as some of you may know, is the highly accomplished yet underrated guitarist for the Canadian rock trio Rush. My favorite band incidentally.

In 1996, Alex released a solo project simply called Victor, a name taken from a poem by W.H. Auden. Many critics blasted the album for it's dark and sometimes rather disturbing content, but one thing is clear, this is NOT a Rush album.

I like the eclectic mix of the music and below you will find two of the fine instrumentals from the album. Clearly, Alex is burning on the guitar on these two catchy and well-orchestrated works. I bought this album on release and it is no longer in print, so Nils if you still have my copy, I'd like to add it to my collection of music.

Anyways....all you late night owls, skeezers, static-humming panel beaters, dopers, and pumpkin heads who prowl the internet late at night, enjoy two wonderful songs by Alex.
