  1. UPDATE

    The reason I didn't include the RUSH (self titled), 2112, and A Farewell To Kings boxsets - completely new covers were used, and only colors were changed for self titled.

     

    Regards

  2. There are some subtle differences with the album covers for Hemispheres, Permanent Waves, and Moving Pictures 2015 releases and the 40th anniversary editions.

  3. Myself. I only listen to the Terry Brown produced albums.

    - Rush - March 1974 (TB engineered)

    - Fly By Night - Feb 1975

    - Caress of Steel - Sept 1975

    - 2112 - April 1976

    - All the World's a Stage - Sept 1976

    - A Farewell to Kings - Sept 1977

    - Hemispheres - Oct 1978

    - Permanent Waves - Jan 1980

    - Moving Pictures - Feb 1981

    - Exit Stage Left - Oct 1981

    - Signals - Sept 1982

    Lets just say everything from Grace Under Pressure and on - is not my cup of tea.

  4. In 2010 Rush released Icon on CD only.

    Concert favorite compilation. I really had no interest in it at the time.

     

    Last year it was decided to release Icon on vinyl. One particular version caught my eye - Canada only translucent with splatter.

    Copies in closest record shop were bought up by the time I had gotten there. All versions I found online (Amazon & Discog) were going for $75 at first, and as time went by $100 plus.

    But I lucked out and found a copy for a reasonable $60. As always, Rush does great job with all their vinyl releases.

  5. Would love to see some Rush Music collections.

     

    Picture (Google Drive link) of my Rush collection. Cassette and 8 Track tapes were the medium that took the beating in my youth.

    Took better care of my music in early 80s when started to purchase CDs (yes they're in white cases - thought would look better - was wrong).

    Do own all recording post Terry Brown (Signals 1982). But these recording are the ones proud of.

    Love to see what the Rush Forum users are hiding.

  6. Where did I first hear Rush?

    Was it the Rush self titled album? No no, that's not it.

    Oh, it must had been Fly By Night? Nope.

     

    1975 K-tel "Canada Gold" Album. Yup. Eleven years old, purchased to hear my favorite song - Last Song by Edward Bear.

    But soon tired of that and started listening to other songs on the record.

    "In The Mood" by Rush. Rush? They named themselves using a verb?

    Suffice to say - I was hooked.

     

     

    A sample of Canada Gold below.

    Edward Bear founding member Paul Weldon designed the 1974 RUSH debut album cover.

     

    On a side note, Edward Bear was the opening act for Led Zeppelin at The Rock Pile venue in Toronto on August 18, 1969.

     

    Geddy and Alex were both in the audience at the above mentioned Led Zeppelin concert.

     

    Mind is blown.

    Love to hear some members introduction into the word of Rush.

     

    Bonus - Favorite album - All the World's a Stage.

  8. With Feb 12 2021 fast approaching - I haven't come across any information for a MP 40th.

     

    Already did a search here (therushforum), and also checked the bands website & E-shop, Amazon (CA & COM), and of course a Google / DuckDuckGo search.

     

    I'm curious (as is everyone) to find any information.

     

    Regards

  9. Left the follow review for Rush: The Making of A Farewell to Kings: The Graphic Novel

    My poor Rush

    Good grief.

    Said once, and I'll keep saying it.

    Rush has taken another step to completely commercializing what's left of the band. This is not the band I grew up with.

    Gene Simmons would be proud.

     

    Terry Brown produced only.

     

     

    Let the hate begin.
