Is the Not Fade Away/ You Can't Fight It record really considered the Holy Grail of all Rush collectibles? I was reading about it on a forum, and several people said that it was...

That would be cool to have, but the Holy Grail of Rush is generally considered to be the mythical soundboard recording from the final show of the Caress of Steel tour on January 10, 1976 at Massey Hall in Toronto. Geddy's cousin supposedly has it, but no one else does.

 

The reason it's the Holy Grail is because it's their only ever performance of the Fountain of Lamneth. Here's the complete setlist:

 

 

Janurary 10, 1976 (unconfirmed headline set)

Fly By Night

Beneath, Between and Behind

Bastille Day

I Think I'm Going Bald

By-Tor and the Snowdog

In The End

Making Memories

Anthem

The Fountain of Lamneth:

I. In the Valley

II. No One at the Bridge

III. Bacchus Plateau

IV. The Fountain

Lakeside Park

The Necromancer

Best I Can->

In The Mood

Working Man->

Finding My Way->

Drum Solo

Encore: What You're Doing

I seem to be an oddity in that one of the things I would love to get my hands on is a live boot with John Rutsey on drums - preferably featuring the Rush version of Jailhouse Rock sung in Yugoslavian. Hopefull this would also feature a version of Losing Again, the first song they ever wrote.

 

However, by far the hol grail of Rush rarities has got to be the demo they made at Rochdale College in 1972 which they managed to lose all their copies of.

 

That would be nice to get a hold of.

One of my "holy grail" items has been release recently, which is the "All the World's a Stage" tour video. I never though I'd see footage that old !

What's this now?

 

 

Why has nobody talked about this demo before?
