    I was at the Cleveland show they recorded for the Time Machine Tour, and Working Man as the final song with the reggae intro, powerful revert back to the original tune, outstanding solo, and superb finish with Cygnus X:1 was easily my best Rush finish.

    Guitar
  1. BBBoB as well as Wandering the Face of the Earth
  2. I thought this guy does a really good job of breaking down everything that goes into the song, and just how complex the music that Rush made was. Also I never noticed the harmony part in the second verse, that part really blew my mind.
  3. Hello all. I guess I'd consider myself an intermediate level guitar player. Here are a few of the songs that I know all the way through and enjoy playing: More Than A Feeling Crazy Little Thing Called Love Limelight Subdivisions Time Stand Still What are some other Rush and non-Rush songs that I could learn that are around this difficulty level or are a little bit tougher?
  4. Rush - Working Man FBN - In the End CoS - Lakeside Park 2112 - 2112 AFTK - Xanadu Hemi - La Villa Strangiato PeW - Jacob's Ladder MP - Red Barchetta Sig - Losing It P/G - Between the Wheels PoW - Grand Designs HYF - Force Ten Presto - Available Light RtB - Bravado CP - Leave That Thing Alone TFE - Test for Echo VT - Vapor Trail SnA - Workin' Them Angels CA - The Garden
  5. Don't murder me for this opinion, but I always put the debut in my bottom two. It's got four of my favorite Rush songs, but the other four are just terribly weak and I always pass over them. The other album in my bottom two is Test for Echo, with a two or three relatively good songs, and the rest of them are either just average or also terribly weak. Also, "terribly weak," "average," and "relatively good" are all compared to Rush's catalog. I'd take Dog Years and Tai Shan over a lot of other music.
  6. The Garden Xanadu Jacob’s Ladder 2112 Red Barchetta La Villa Strangiato Natural Science Working Man Cygnus X-1: Book One: The Voyage The Anarchist
  7. I just have some very simple, relatively cheap equipment at home. Epiphone Les Paul Cheap amp (can't remember the name), but it's 15G and just has the treble, bass, and volume controls with an overdrive switch Behringer pedals: -Tuner -Chorus -Tube Overdrive Donner Mini-Phaser pedal I'm playing on Ernie Ball regular strings I know that the better equipment I have the more flexibility I'll have with the tone I can produce, but really I'm just wondering if there are any suggestions in how to get my tone to sound more like Alex's on a variety of songs.
  8. Big fan of the tone all throughout Limelight
  9. Live Rush is crazy, and studio Rush can be just as good. There are certain songs though that just sound 1000x better live than they did in the studio. For me, they are Presto Faithless (and most of S&A) Caravan Finding My Way Entre Nous What are yours?
  10. I know there are isolated bass tracks for the studio version, but I really think Geddy plays the crap out of the bass during LVS on Time Machine and I think it would be amazing to here it isolated. Does anyone have it or know how to make one?

  11. I was wondering if anyone has any videos or recordings of Neil from the debut tour. The only ones I've been able to find are with Rutsey.
  12. The Garden Xanadu Jacob's Ladder
  13. My first two vinyls! I've been hoping to start a Rush vinyl collection and my brother started me out with Moving Pictures and Permanent Waves.

    Ranking Rush

    I have given Caress of Steel another listen, and The Necromancer went up to a 6/10 and I Think I'm Going Bald went to a 3, which increased Caress of Steel's average to 6.6. Caress of Steel is now in this order: Clockwork Angels Caress of Steel Vapor Trails
