I think 2112 is a great album, but it was the beginning of the bands finest era, not their peak.

And Mr. Narpet: I would rank A Farewell To Kings number one, Hemispheres like 8/9. Hemispheres title track just isn't the epic 2112 or Xanadu or Cygnus X-1 are. The second side is flawless.

I would rank GuP in my top five...I need to get the rest now!

Moving Pictures was my introduction to the band, but the similar Permanent Waves is far more spectacular to my ears.

I think its good we all have opinions! I think Power Windows is forgettable and Hold Your Fire is a lot of fun. Caress Of Steel is better than Snakes And Arrows. Snakes And Arrows is still a brilliant album. Clockwork Angels is a masterpiece in need of remixing.

Tai Shan is a very pretty song. I like it very much!

Too much synth...but I like it very much!

O my days! I just found Hold Your Fire for a quid on vinyl in a charity shop! Woooop! Good quality too!

I am not sure how much a quid is, but you may have gotten screwed.............. I guess it's worth having since it was for charity........ ;)

A quid is slang for £1. And I just played Side A. I was not expecting this: I LOVE IT! Everything I hated about Power Windows is here...only this time around I actually think it sounds great!

Now I am slightly concerned about Tai Shan...have heard a lot of flack, but I will approach it with an open mind!

Not a patch on A Farewell To Kings...but I am very surprised. Perhaps its the low expectations I had that made me like this!

All The World...right...that will my next purchase methinks!

Buckle your seat belt cause you're going for a sweet ride............. :haz: :rush:

 

Is it really worth getting over all the albums from HYF through to FB? I am intrigued...I'm hoping to save enough money for the new boxset plus HYF but am holding back coz I am a bit strapped fo cash and need to choose carefully...

Just my opinion....... I have made no secret of the fact that I really don't care for their post 85' to at least Vapor Trails period. I may the wrong person to ask. All I know is "All The World's A Stage" represents my favorite band, at their best, just reaching their prime. It is live and sounds raw and untouched. My first album purchase when I was 16 and still the best album purchase I have made in my life. It will take you back to what it might have been like for an old - timer like me to experience them live way back in the day.......... :codger: :haz:

 

Seems when it comes to Rush we have similar taste! I think I should give it a try next...

I guess this Black Sabbath album is all down to opinion (as is everything, right?). I'm not a fan...but in the UK it has gone down a treat. I guess I am quite impressed! And it can't all be hype, the last couple of albums released prior to this one hardly set the world on fire. So I guess I will give my vote to Black Sabbath. Perhaps even more so than the last Springsteen. After all, I think Rush fans new Rush still had it in them to a certain degree (perhaps not quite as much as what CA happily delivered for us!), but BS? Nah...I don't think anyone expected both the critics AND the audience to love it quite as much as they did.

And as for the 13 naysayers...are they in the majority? Coz I am not so sure...after all, even CA has its detractors. Doesn't change the fact Rush released a late in the game masterwork.

All The World...right...that will my next purchase methinks!

You named your son 11?

 

How old is he? Fred?

I kinda dig that name........... :dweez:

I've heard worse...Blue Ivy? Apple? ... Michael?

You named your son 11?

How old is he? Fred?

Finally decided to buy it.

Wow! This is so strange! It reminds me strongly of Jeff Wayne's Musical Version Of The War Of The Worlds. Thats a good thing!

Oh and Cristina Scabbia...so glad she blends in so comfortably amongst all these other greats!

I am loving it. Members of Dream Theater, Lacuna Coil, Yes and Nightwish on one album? How could I not love this?

Shooting Star............. Bad Company One of the rockingest sad songs ever especially if you know the back story. Listen to the wind....................

 

Songbird.....................Fleetwood Mac and the great Christine McVie

Fleetwood Mac fot the world!

I would call this song mellow...but sad? Dunno

Vanilla Sky...the one with Tom Cruise?

If it is I'm glad I'm not the only one who thought it was a good film!

I like a lot of these lists better than mine...

Robert Plant (Raising Sand)

Robert Plant hasn't been 40 years into his solo career. :nya nya:

Has Cher?

Yeah, she has but Come on! Has anyone actually listened to an entire Cher album and survived?

DO YOU BELIEVE IN LIIIIIIFE AFTER LOOOOOOVE

I CAN FEEEL SOMETHIIING INSIIIIIIDE ME SAAAAY I REALLY DON'T THINK I'M STRONG ENOUGH NOOOO!!

Aww man...a disc of tunes all like this would float my boat and sail me merry by ferry!

I GOT YOU BABE!!!

Ok ok okay...its like thirty years into this bands career...

Doobie Brothers- Sibling Rivalry. Great album!!!

That song from The Wild Thornberry's Movie, Father And Daughter is SWEEEEEEEEET!

I love that song.

Everytime- Britney Spears

Russian Roulette- Rihanna

That should spice things up a little!

I just got bored...

I roasted five red peppers, two sweet potatoes, five cloves of garlic and added them to fried onions, tomatoes and a good dose of veggie stock. Added a teaspoon of black pepper, two teaspoons of paprika and a smidge of chilli. Blended smooth...added about 100g of boiled red lentils...

MY SOUP IS ACE!

Cloudy With A Chance Of Meatballs 2.

 

Not even joking: MOVIE OF THE YEAR!

 

I thought the first one was an animated marvel...the second made me weep tears of joy!

I thought it surpassed the first, which is always tough to do. My two little boys loved it, so that's what matters

Im obsessed with the first one...and yes...the second one was more fun than the first!

Sad thing is...I have no young ones to hide behind. I went with my to friends and it kinda looked lame!
