Rush is one of those bands that is hard to pick only one great favorite album as their entire body of work contains excellence throughout...i can't really picka fav album but i do have a fave period and that was the early 80's from PW to signals....
If you choose not to decide, you still have made a choice.

Permanent Waves. The 1,2 punch of Spirit of the Radio and Freewill is unbeatable, and the rest of the album is stellar.

I don't remember what I voted for, but I cannot disagree with your assessment. On a related note: http://www.therushfo...st-song-ending/

Permanent Waves and Hold Your Fire. I can't choose any fewer than those two.

And that leaves out a ton of other astonishingly good Rush albums. But...there it is.

I've said this on, and in three other similar threads as this, which is I think it's hard to pick a personal favorite Rush compact disk, and album because they are great, unique, and reflect in each of our lives differently.
