Rush frontman Geddy Lee recently spoke with The Canadian Press, saying the band didn’t want to call its 2015 tour its last, even though it turned out that way. He also discusses his Big Beautiful Book Of Bass in the clip below.

Geddy Lee's Big Beautiful Book Of Bass is a 408-page book that profiles his love of all things bass and his personal collection of vintage electric bass guitars, dating from the 1950s to the 1980s. All editions of the new book are available for order at Rush Backstage now.

"It's not surprising that sooner or later I’d dive down the proverbial rabbit hole into the world of vintage bass guitars." - Geddy Lee
