ytserush Posted February 21, 2016 Share Posted February 21, 2016 Yes. I have a bootleg tape of a show in 74. Pretty good show as I recall. I have it on cassette myself. Never upgraded. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thunder Bay Rush Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 I know this has been talked about a million times before, so I will stand still (without even flinching) while someone kicks me in the onions... But - I sometimes cannot believe the difference between the first Rush and - all the rest of them. Neil really helped the boys switch gears. This recording at the Whiskey sounds pretty juvenile. Then, just a few short weeks later - enter By Tor. Crazy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thunder Bay Rush Posted February 27, 2016 Share Posted February 27, 2016 I wonder, if during those first few weeks, Neil was secretly wondering what the hell he got himself into... "This crap is pretty basic. I hope these guys improve soon!" Apparently, they did... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thunder Bay Rush Posted March 1, 2016 Share Posted March 1, 2016 I just listened to some of it again today... the Whiskey show. I can't believe HOW high Geddy was singing back then. No wonder why some people didn't like Rush back then. Fly By Night was much more of an easier listen for casual fans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robertrobyn Posted March 27, 2016 Author Share Posted March 27, 2016 What still blows me away is how small the Whiskey is. My local bar down the street is bigger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andreww Posted March 31, 2016 Share Posted March 31, 2016 I love listening to shows in those early days. There was always more time between songs as there were no electronic tuners back then. You can hear Alex using harmonic tuning between songs on this one. Great recording! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
