Rush…love or hate?

[Turn7]

For me, one of the first bands that truly opened my eyes to quality rock….

Everything up to Exit stage left I adored

Moving pictures probably favoured but permanent waves loved

Saw them a few times in the day.

What say you ?

Absolultely love some of their stuff, for me their golden period covered the albums 2112, A Farewell To Kings, Hemispheres, Permanent Waves, and Moving Pictures.

Moving Pictures is perhaps their most cohesive album as a whole, but it signalled (pun unintended) the start of their next phase of musical evolution. I think it stands up better today than it felt to me when I first heard it in the early 80s.

Side 1 of A Farewell To Kings, plus Side 2 of Hemispheres - now that would make one spectacular Rush album in my opinion

Agree. I think Moving Pictures is probabaly my favourite, but Hemispheres and Perm waves boith very very good...

Tried to listen to Rush many times but always had to give up.

Love the music, can't stand the sound of Geddy Lee's voice

In the same vein, I cannot listen to AC/DC....

Been watching this a lot lately…..

I can't even see the pic (work pc restrictions) but I'm guessing that's a Red Barchetta?

Yup
