"Working Man," easily. That song rocks harder than about anything else.  It gave the band their first big break and is just awesome!

You can't beat that opening riff on "Finding My Way". What a way to begin an entire discography! :ebert:

I love trying to play along to the solo in Here Again (I'm okay up to a certain point and then Alex plays too fast).  I just think it's a cool tune—lots of emotion and I think a hint of where they were going.

Plus Geddy's voice is scorching in Here Again in different sort of way.

I like all of the songs but as far as best I'd have to pick Working Man. Killer guitar tone on that one too. Big, thick and juicy.

Finding My Way rocks harder than Working Man IMO. That opening riff, those screams... Working Man trudges along a little... to me.

After a long while since my first listen, I've got to say Here Again gets a huge honorable mention in my book, almost tied with Working Man.

Working Man, because the instrumental part in the middle is just great!

"Working Man", but to me, a lot of really good ones here. A solid debut.

(Interesting side note: Donna Halper mentions putting the needle down on the longest track when she first got the album. "Working Man" is not the longest track though. "Here Again" is. Wonder what would've happened had they kept playing that track instead... ;) )
