Rush - The Necromancer (acoustic cover)

[@chrisp1232]

interesting ... nice job. very fun.....no one gives Carress the credit it deserves.

[@keithhutchins8803]

No one, well that’s just not true because I certainly do

[@Mattrino101]

I'm only 40 seconds in and this man is already my hero.

[@marklewin5329]

This is amazing. As a person of a similar vintage, I really enjoy your interpretation of a song I've been listening to virtually every day since I was 15 :)

[@gpthoss]

Awesome. Thank you. This one's for you!

[@tonydogga300]

I'm in Schock !!!!!

[@yauybob]

Alex once said that if a song works acoustically, you know it is good (or something to that effect). Also, this guy's slow-speed Neil impression is spot on. Love it!

[@smolderingjay3360]

Man, I come back to your version time and time again. I flippin dig it.

[@gpthoss]

Awesome, man. Thanks!

[@jeffwickermusic134]

I am a hard core Rush fan and a fellow guitarist since the 70’s. I want you to know I enjoyed this a lot! I would never have thought this could be done on an acoustic. Not only did you do it on acoustic, you are spot on! I really loved the improvised ending, that was great! Thank you so much for this video, you really made my day! 😎👍

[@gpthoss]

Thanks so much, Jeff. Means a lot since you know this tune so well!

[@jeffwickermusic134]

Brilliant! 😎👍🎸

[@tonydogga300]

Fantastic !!!!!❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@SirMicahBroch]

As a Rush fan, that was majestic. Keep up the good work

[@gpthoss]

Thank you. I love your description.

[@FelipeOliveira-qp3kr]

Best cover I've ever heard!

[@josetomasaguilera6755]

One of the most passionate covers I’ve seen

[@alienisludum]

What an incredible cover! I am a fan of this version. It is evident you have put so much effort and love into it. You have earned my respect, sir.

[@martingarza7868]

Epic storytelling...Peart would be proud! Thanks for sharing that. Rush fans are the best!

[@gpthoss]

Thank you!

[@saratfevereiro]

This is a wonderful heart-warming tribute. If I smile any longer or harder my face is going to cramp. Thank you, sir!

[@mickdogleap6375]

Love it.... one of my favourite Rush numbers... Lifeson's early guitar sound and Alex's powerful vocals doing what they do best with Niel's Lyrics

[@SeanBauzay]

This was a whole lot of fun. Lol. Rush was all about a sense of humor. I’m sure they would love this. But you also killed it. One of the most original snd funny covers I’ve seen. Refreshing. Also I love this song. Well done sir

[@kevinfoster5561]

One of my favorite Rush songs, great job and thanks for bringing back some awesome memories.

[@jackbotsford8688]

This is one of the coolest things I've ever seen. Excellent song choice performed EXCELLENTLY. amazing job!!! Keep doing what you're doing! :)

[@gpthoss]

Thank you very much!

[@leosalas41ify]

Heart breaking, saw rush in 76, 78 and 79. Always hoped they would do the whole Caress/2112 tour before retiring. Guess not meant to be... Thanks so much! Took me way back. Still have and play both albums at 60 yrs. old....

[@brucedickinson12]

Brilliant

[@johnkennedy3970]

Wow, you are an inspiration. Obviously a dedicated Rush fan like myself...I just had to get up off my hotel room bed and get my guitar out and play along..Really enjoyed it !!

[@gpthoss]

Love that. Thanks and glad you played along!

[@Icelandrobot]

i applaud your bravery sir !

[@j.c.a2872]

very nice tribute, one of my favorite songs from one of my favorite Rush albums; thanks for that man !!!!

[@gpthoss]

[@chazkeeley6091]

Just stumbled across this. Really nice!

[@miguel--rush]

Excelente interpretación...querido amigo..! Felicitaciones..! Saludos cordiales.!

[@SkyLabRats]

I can’t remember ever hearing a cover of this song. I kind of like it better than the original.

[@gpthoss]

Thanks a lot

[@magicpassos]

I liked this version acoustic! Well done

[@d180586]

I thoroughly enjoyed that, thank you sir!

[@dnt5volvo]

[@gpthoss]

Thanks!

[@GMWard-vi6yo]

Nice man. Bummer about Neil. I was looking for exactly this cover. Nice work. I'm inspired to learn more acoustic Rush. Really good work. Thank you.

[@bobburns3311]

Awesome!!!

[@smolderingjay3360]

me and you, and all that listen. Your version grows on me.

[@mikemarlow5429]

[@lhs9841]

Baba o'riley in the end wow i loved

[@tylerchambers8436]

dope! I'm gonna try pick this one out myself this song is so great!

[@jeffwickermusic134]

I left a comment a week or so ago and now, I’ve probably watched your video a couple dozen times at least. You really demonstrate that there’s not much you can’t do on a guitar, if you really set your mind to it! You’ve inspired me to try it on acoustic as well and I didn’t think it could be sung without singing in the stratosphere as Geddy so easily does! Not only is your guitar playing outstanding but so is your singing, narration, special effects you did on your guitar, and also the very special outro at the end. Excellent! I love your sense of humor and I think that Alex, Geddy, and Neil would too! 😎👍

[@gpthoss]

Thank you so much! I would hope they might have a giggle at the end bit. Or had, RIP Neil. And I've always liked the vocal melodies once they are brought into range. Especially the first song, but they are all satisfying.

[@smolderingjay3360]

I definitely don't hate you for (a tiny bit of) goofing around. You have made my day more than once. Born in '68. If I didn't use clippers on my head we might pass as twins. I even have a remarkably similar shirt.

[@davidreel8]

Awesome performance, great guitar playing and very entertaining. I stayed for the whole 12 minutes (who writes 12 minute songs anyway? Oh yeah, half of all Rush songs before 1980 were at least 12 minutes!) Beautiful chords you played in the latter part of the song. And a tip of the hat to your drumming during the break down - made me smile. You really captured something with this version!

[@gpthoss]

Thanks a lot. This one's for you - anyone who enjoys this song as much as I do!

[@PL..Powstaniec]

uwielbiam takie wykonania - świeże i bez chemii - pozdrowienia

[@omadaw]

This is simply mind blowing, you are my hero. What a neck knowledge

[@gpthoss]

Thanks a lot

[@ba2911]

100th comment. Happy New Year. That was cool as hell.

[@mikeyevs]

This is the happiest I have ever been watching a KZbin video. Thank you.

[@gpthoss]

Wow. Thanks a lot.

[@mikeyevs]

​@@gpthossI have just come back to this after 2 years and still absolutely loved your performance! Thank you. Mike
