This is a very, very old Rush song (almost as old as me) from when Neal Peart first joined the band. By-Tor is actually the first of the "epic" Rush tunes, and features some very hard rocking, especially the long instrumental in the middle that is supposed to represent the clash between the evil knight, By-Tor and the hero of the story, Snow Dog. I chopped out most of the middle part of the song because it is a series of guitar swells with simple open E notes on the bass. A minute and a half of that and most of the viewers would probably go to sleep.Of course I have to play this tune with the Rick. After all, the song and the bass are about the same age.
