Photoshop?

 

I thought so at first, amazing if not.

 

I presume it was shot in Toronto? I couldn't imagine anywhere else there'd be such a big splash for a then obscure rock band.

Kings Road, Los Angeles. It intersects with Melrose. Edited by goose

Cheers! Really surprising to see the band getting promotion like that so early in their career on the road in the USA.

That was my thinking as well. That's a mighty big ad to use for Rush at that point in their career.

I have a few LA METAL DVDS there is actually live footage shot of this picture in the video. It blew my mind when I saw it. I had to freeze the dvd and take a picture. It is indeed very real.
