Time Stood Still Posted July 28, 2022 Share Posted July 28, 2022 Does anyone remember the Rush Retrospective 3 Box Set Special that originally aired in March 2009 and does anybody have a recording of it? The special consisted of Geddy explaining stuff about certain songs and music videos the band made, even ones that weren't on Retrospective 3, I've only seen the special once on YouTube in 2018 before the channel that had uploaded it was terminated. I just really want to see it again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snowdog2112 Posted August 15, 2022 Share Posted August 15, 2022 I've got it. There was the one I think you're talking about where it's just Geddy mostly talking about their videos and there's another VH1 special that had both Alex and Geddy on it talking a bit about their history, short clips just bookending videos. Can't remember what that was for (maybe around R30?) but they both aired on VH1 in the 2000s. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd be happy to try, I have an old Rush rarities youtube channel that I haven't uploaded anything to in many years, but VH1 stuff seems to get blocked immediately. I'll try it later today and send you a link if it works, if it doesn't work I'll try to get it to you directly somehow. I've got to find it first but that shouldn't be too hard. I've got whole hard drives full of just Rush stuff. Bear with me and I'll update you soon. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snowdog2112 Posted August 16, 2022 Share Posted August 16, 2022 Found it. I hope that was the hard part. It's 144MB, if it was smaller I'd just email it to you but I'll figure something out. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snowdog2112 Posted August 18, 2022 Share Posted August 18, 2022 Weird. I didn't set it to private. When I click the link here myself it plays fine but when I go to my channel it says I have no videos uploaded. I'll try again later today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snowdog2112 Posted August 18, 2022 Share Posted August 18, 2022 True, but you can also just go a to a simple YouTube downloader and save it if you'd like. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bahamas Posted August 19, 2022 Share Posted August 19, 2022 snowdog2112, you are a master finder of great stuff! When Time Stood Still first asked above, I thought of the audio box set(s) with the name Retrospective and passed on by. Of course, I missed the "aired" bit. I never thought much of RUSH videos. Posters and album covers and tour books, yes. Videos, no. Never a big MTV or music media fan in general, what I did see of their videos was underwhelming, or weird to me. Not polished like little movies as so many music videos were. This recording explains so much about the videos. I have watched some that came with recent 40th anniversary releases, only Driven really caught my attention. Now finding and watching the 1991 movie Delicatessen is my new side project! I noticed "Christ" was edited out of the broadcast during the discussion of The Pass video. Goodness, how times have changed in over thirty years since. Thanks for that trip down memory lane. I think I will find a new interest in Rush music videos and the names and artists and producers behind them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoahLutz Posted September 2, 2022 Share Posted September 2, 2022 Is this still available? I’d love to watch it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rush Didact Posted September 2, 2022 Share Posted September 2, 2022 snowdog, any chance you could upload the video to a file sharing site instead of youtube? It's long gone and I missed this discussion when it was fresh. WeTransfer.com is excellent in my experience. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
