A fun collection of Geddy screaming and the critics’ reaction to his voice over the years. Most of the quotes are from the late 1970s.
“Lee’s voice sounds like the damned howling in Hades.” Globe & Mail
Geddy Lee sings like “a guinea pig with an amphetamine habit.” John Griffin, Montreal Gazette
If Geddy’s voice “was any higher and raspier, his audience would consist exclusively of dogs and extraterrestrials.” Dan Nooger, Circus
“Lead singer Geddy Lee continues to sound as though he played one football game too many without ample equipment.” Detroit News
“Mr. Lee sings in a spare but unusual way—a brittle and androgynous tenor.” John Rockwell
