In my opinion, very few bands can count on a farewell album of this value.
Considering the timing at 66 minutes, I put CA in top 5 Rush album (extracting the best 35 minutes, that is the timing of the '70's Rush albums, top 5 is maybe prudent).
Yeah same here, if you take the very best of CA out is the timing of permanent waves etc and as such is of that very best rush standard
For eg/ Caravan, BU2B and Clockwork Angels for me is essentially Spirit of Radio, Freewill and Jacob's Ladder, kind of remarkable the band could hit that sublime level in their final work

Much more than a musician, one of the great artists of any type, paints with sound most imaginative rock guitarist there will ever be his range from most sensitive and delicate to most powerful and aggressive. Over the years he even looked the coolest. The man's a demi-god i personally couldnt thank anyone else more for

Heck we're all going to die, everything gets blown away like smoke in the wind, if ged and alex decide to make new music as rush with another percussionist and, god forbid, even a new singer, then so be it let's go, can't think of anything more exciting on the horizon.
If turns out to be a stain on the rush legacy so what, that's what it'll go down as and nobody should care that much. Bring it on i say, alex & ged doing COMPLETELY different rush, not completely different music it'll still be rush, is just a real buzz of a prospect

Big difference between a Rush with new percussionist just playing Rush live and a Rush actually making new music
Strongly held view by most, probably, that Rush cannot exist without one of the three members, each being so essential to the chemistry and until now i shared that view but..
F**k it, why not. Make new stuff too guys. Rush 3.0 bring it on.

Just read an article saying ged releasing two tracks alongside his memoir that didnt make MFH he's 'shined' them up https://www.thestar.com/entertainment/music/geddy-lee-finishes-off-two-unreleased-songs-for-new-memoir-plans-new-music/article_b806c521-19c7-5fe6-b76e-f4d253089a58.html

Sounds nowt like phil :)

Always thought limelight a bit different to the rest of album - just Al's guitar has a different more basic rock sound to rest of tracks. Vital Signs more in keeping with the album i find

Remember when Workin' Them Angels released as a single and could not for the life of me understand why, as a hardened rush head the song's good i really get it but couldn't see myself as a younger person being excited by it in any way, would've instantly turned off and away to something else.
Thankfully my first experience of rush was the spirit of radio and permanent waves in general, which pulls you in without a choice of course

A truncated CA would have a shot at my top ten. In its entirety, nope.
They wrote the half of the album that was great before going on tour then the other half that was kind of sub-standard after the tour, as if taking a break and going on tour had sucked all the creative zip outa them
Could've been their very best in entirety but as you say, unusually falls short for this band
