New World Kid Posted September 26, 2020 Share Posted September 26, 2020 I think it's a very polite, uncontroversial list from a very polite, courteous Canadian. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The400Boys Posted September 28, 2020 Share Posted September 28, 2020 (edited) This is a HUGE reason why RUSH 1980 - 2013 >>>>>>>>>>> RUSH 1973 - 1980 for me. I really dislike all the fantasy and literary nonsense lyrics from those early albums.I assume you know that for what became the "Natural Science" (1980 release), Peart originally planned on writing one more fantasy song about Sir Gawain & The Green Knight (in which case you might have rated albums from 1981 as superior)https://ultimateclas...nt-waves-album/https://www.reddit.c...gawain_and_the/ (originally intended lyrics) Edited September 28, 2020 by The400Boys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's very good IMO, except for the Rush s/t debut - I honestly can't believe he ranked it fairly high. I love that CARESS OF STEEL made the list!!! YES!!!!

Weatherman Posted September 28, 2020 Share Posted September 28, 2020 I'm taken aback by Ged's list.He didn't name anything after 1982. They made 10 more albums after Signals, and he doesn't think any of them are superior to, say, Hemispheres, or Fly By Night?Some of those are my very favorites. I'm an artist myself -- a writer -- so I know that we lose perspective on our own work.This is Exhibit AAAA of that tendency. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Further to what others have said IIRC from watching the show at the time, Geddy was handed vinyl copies of the first 9 studio albums and asked to place them on a shelf in his order of preference. Clearly it was Eddie Trunk's idea hence only albums from what he considers Rush's classic period were featured.

And I know Geddy would rank quite a few above CoS. He’s more generous than I am. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
