Globe and Mail National Bestseller

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

From Rush frontman Geddy Lee's personal collection of vintage electric bass guitars, dating from the 1950s to the 1980s, comes the definitive volume on the subject.

Geddy's love of the bass has been nurtured over a lifetime spent in the limelight as one of the world's premier rock bassists. For the past seven years, he's dedicated himself to studying the history of the instrument that's been so essential to his career, collecting hundreds of basses from around the globe.

Written with arts journalist Daniel Richler, gorgeously photographed in breathtaking detail by Richard Sibbald, and with insight from Geddy's trusted bass tech and curator, John Skully McIntosh, Geddy Lee's Big Beautiful Book of Bass profiles over 250 classic basses from Geddy's extensive collection. Representing every tone in the bass palette, every nuance of the rock and roll genre as well as blues, jazz, pop, and country, this one-of-a-kind collection features so-called beauty queens--pristine instruments never lifted from their cases--as well as road warriors--well-worn, sweat-soaked basses that proudly show their age and use. Complete with personal commentary from Geddy that showcases his knowledge both as a musician and an aficionado, this luxuriously produced volume is a revelatory look at the heavy hitters in the world of bass--Fender, Gibson/Epiphone, Rickenbacker, H fner, Ampeg--and lesser known but influential global luthiers such as Antonio Wandr Pioli, Dan Armstrong, and Tony Zemaitis.

The book also features interviews with John Paul Jones (Led Zeppelin); Adam Clayton (U2); Robert Trujillo (Metallica); Jeff Tweedy (Wilco); Bill Wyman (The Rolling Stones); Les Claypool (Primus); Bob Daisley (Rainbow); Fender expert and owner of the legendary Gibson Explorer, Bass Ken Collins; veteran guitar tech for The Who, Alan Rogan; plus comments from many other great players across three decades of rock and roll.

Written in Geddy's singular voice, this book reveals the stories, songs, and history behind the instruments of his inimitable collection. Complete with an index and a graphically designed timeline of the history of the bass, as well as an up-close look at Geddy's basses on Rush's final R40 Tour, his stage and recording gear from 1968 to 2017, and forewords by author and respected vintage expert, Terry Foster, and Rush band member, Alex Lifeson, Geddy Lee's Big Beautiful Book of Bass is the ultimate compendium for the consummate collector, musician, Rush fan, and anyone who loves the bass guitar.

Just ok
Size: 5 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
You get what you pay for. It’s reasonably priced but I find it leaves my skin feeling dry. I need a product for aging, dry skin.

Finally a Cleanser That Works for My Daughter's Puberty Skin
Scent: Unscented, Size: 3.4 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Scent: Unscented, Size: 3.4 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I ordered this foaming gel for my 11-year-old daughter on the recommendation of our dermatologist. She's at that age where her skin is changing, and we've been struggling with excess oil, shine, and the breakouts that come with it. Honestly, this is the best face wash we've tried so far. The texture is light and pleasant, it foams up nicely without being too thick or heavy. The scent is very mild and not overpowering, which is great for sensitive skin. After just a few uses, the oily shine on her skin started to fade, and the sebum production noticeably decreased. That means fewer breakouts and less irritation overall. It doesn't dry out her young skin at all. It just gently removes dirt, oil, and impurities without stripping it. No tightness, no redness. We're really happy with how it's working so far. Will continue using it and update if anything changes, but for now highly recommend for anyone dealing with puberty or oily, sensitive skin.

Rosacea care
Scent: Unscented, Size: 500ml / 16.7 Fl Oz
I have been using this cleanser for a year. It's a simple unscented cleanser that is part of my rosacea care. No irritation or tightness. When it's on sale I grab a couple. I found that applying it to dry skin first, then adding water, is much more effective than applying it on wet skin. The consistency is a little thin so it's challenging to make it lather. A great all around cleanser for any type of skin.

Gentle, soothing, and perfect for sensitive skin
Scent: Unscented, Size: 3.4 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I’ve been using the Bioderma Sensibio Foaming Gel for sensitive skin for a few weeks, and it has quickly become one of my favourite cleansers. Despite having combination skin that’s prone to redness and sensitivity, this gel never dries me out or causes irritation. The texture is a clear gel that transforms into a light, airy foam — so gentle and refreshing. It rinses off completely without leaving any tightness or residue . What I love most about it: • foams lightly yet cleans thoroughly — removes dirt, oil and even light makeup without stripping the skin ; • unscented, soap-free, non-comedogenic, and pH‑balanced, so it respects my skin’s natural barrier ; • leaves skin feeling hydrated, soft and calm, not tight or dry . In my routine, I use this gel morning and evening. It’s perfect for days when my skin is more reactive — calming without being stripping. Even after wearing light sunscreen or daily foundation, my face feels fresh and balanced post-wash. ✅ Gentle enough for daily use ✅ Keeps skin barrier intact ✅ Effective at cleansing without irritation This cleanser is now a permanent part of my skincare lineup. I definitely plan to repurchase — ideal for anyone seeking a reliable, ultra‑gentle everyday cleanser.
