Cool! Thanks for posting this, AFS74.

 

I have the 1st tribute album that Magna Carta released a few years ago - but I hardly ever listen to it. I don't know how often I'd put this one in, but I'll certainly add it to my collection as soon as it's available.

Mmmmm..I dunno? I guess by the artwork, we can assume this project was fully endorsed?

 

Doubt I'll buy this one....rarely have these been impressive.

 

 

Spoiled by the real thing, I guess.

Somewhere i read that the band, and Neil Peart in particular if I remember well, doesn't appreciate these operations.For them it's an operation to make money with their songs.

In theory they're right,but I love Red Barchetta sung by LaBrie and on Working Man there is also an excellent version of The Analog Kid.

Speaking of tribute cd's......Ever hear of 'Red Star' tribute cd from 1999?

 

A tribute from speed metal bands, including tunes by such groups as...

 

Engrave Speed Death doing.........Anthem

 

Hate Theory doing................What You're Doing

 

Disarray doing............Tom Sawyer

 

Hostile Intent doing............Subdivisions

 

Capital 2 doing...........Tears

 

 

An interesting tribute to say the least....I bought it off of e-bay.While I can't recommend it as a serious option for the casual Rush fan...I did like the song choices...and it was interesting to see how this genre would treat Rush.

 

How these bands were inspired? I dunno.It must be the kick-ass musicians that are............

Hmm...I think I'll give it a pass, thanks; most of these clips sound too close to the originals for my liking. IMHO, a more worthwhile tribute album is the recently released Gordon Lightfoot tribute Beautiful. The artists on that album take a bit more artistic licence.

well, listened to the clips.. I'm not impressed at all.. I prefer that a tribute/cover try to sound as much like the original as possible. This falls way short. I like Working Man much better although it is far from perfect..

 

Once again proving that no one can do 2.gif like 2.gif

Not necessarily. Magna Carta is simply one of Hugh's clients.
