Nate2112 Posted November 24, 2017 Share Posted November 24, 2017 I am going to spin Presto tonight. For some reason I really feel like I need this band right now.You'll be surprised how good they sound when you haven't listened to them for awhile. Makes you realize all the more why you loved them to begin with. :rush: :Neil: :geddy: :Alex: :rush: Been playing Rush all day! Grace Under PressureHold Your FirePrestoRoll The BonesCounterparts At this point in time, my top five Rush albums. I have as well. Nice list!

New World Kid Posted November 24, 2017 Share Posted November 24, 2017 I didn't really like it the first time I heard it. Now it's one of my Top 5 Rush albums. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EagleMoon Posted November 24, 2017 Share Posted November 24, 2017 Bad, thin-sounding production with drums that sound like tin cans and tupperware. Exactly. Terrible. I had all but given up on the band at this point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
laughedatbytime Posted November 24, 2017 Share Posted November 24, 2017 Presto is a great album.Show Don't Tell, Chain Lightning & The Pass is a killer opening trio.Most people can't make it halfway through Chain Lightning.

Entre_Perpetuo Posted November 24, 2017 Share Posted November 24, 2017 Played Presto today, also half listened to Hems on the way back to school this morning (was sleeping). Both wonderful albums. I know I rag on Hems a lot for not being all it's often cracked up to be, but what it gets right, it gets astonishingly right. But yeah, this is about Presto. I like what Segue said about it being a funky little album, I believe that's true. But the other thing is almost all of these songs are some of their best written pop tunes. Catchy, peppy, uplifting, emotional, deep but not overwhelming (well, I imagine The Pass is for many others). That tinny sparkly production really suits what they were going for here (now on RTB that's another matter, but I digress). Presto is great. Never forget Presto. Also, there's a good reason the only Rush song I've actually performed is the title track to this, lol. :P 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
