Lets say that you got forced to only listen to one Rush studio album for rest of your life, and you would never hear the other Rush albums again.

 

Which album would you pick?

A Farewell To Kings. No surprise there I suppose. I would miss greatly anything up to Signals and miss less greatly the few that followed those and not much at all 91' onward but what needs to be done must be. Greatness from start to finish... :codger: Edited by Narpsberg

Caress of Steel, my favorite.

 

It'd be awfully difficult to say goodbye to Moving Pictures though.

 

My exact line of thinking. Hemispheres would be in there, but even though I like it more than MP, I think I would miss MP more, if that makes any sense.

Another vote for A Farewell To Kings. Absolutely my favorite of the '70s Rush. Along with 2112 and Moving Pictures, it's a Rush album I must have on vinyl.

Yep they got it just right. Greatness all around it too obviously...

I went with Hemispheres. I could live without the others. :)

Bye bye Xanadu :wub: ... :hi: ;)

That's why I went with Hemispheres. It's solid and intense and deep and has substance. In other words, if I had to choose just one Rush album, I would always find something on Hemispheres to satisfy. It would never short change me or leave me hungry for more. I guess what I am saying is that it would provide a substantial meal as opposed to junk food that fills you and then you are hungry again within two hours.

This would have to be my choice is well. The fact that it has Xanadu on it pretty much trumps it. Hemispheres would be my second choice but it was very close.

Vapor Trails

 

If I skip the last two songs, this is my favourite.

Im going for a 90 min cassette...Grace Under Pressure on side A & Power Windows on side B....fair enough or.... :huh:

No. If you had chosen AFTK and Hemispheres it would have made more sense and I couldn't blame you for trying... ;)

Erm...lots of 'em!

 

And I love the whole album up until Freeze. Not a skipper in sight. And I have really grown to love it.

I would have figured you would have chosen Presto with no apologies. Damn I am so confused... :wacko:

Oops...it has Chain Lightning and Available Light...

 

There are Rush albums I deem perfect, but some of the lesser albums have the songs I love the most.

 

It has to be Presto Trails...or Bunny Vapor (I am stuck).
