lyndale Posted December 23, 2007 Share Posted December 23, 2007 Probably my second favourite album, after Moving Pictures. I've been a Rush fan for almost 30 years and every new album somehow gets the same initial reaction when i first hear. "What the feck have they done now". Some take months even years for me to get in to. Only recently i was playing some of the very early lesser played tracks and i realised just how good every album is, if given the time. Moving Pictures will take a lot of beating in my opinion, but S & A gives it a bloody good run. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
douglip Posted December 23, 2007 Share Posted December 23, 2007 I find with some bands that the albums that I regard as true classics, are the ones that reveal their greatness gradually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd agree with this, I've been a fan since Moving Pictures and while I immediately liked parts of S&A, it has grown on me in a huge way to become one of my favorite Rush albums. I'd also add that some songs that didn't wow me the first few times through became favorites after hearing them live this summer, where they took on a harder edge. As someone else stated, show me another band of this vintage making albums this good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J0N Posted December 24, 2007 Share Posted December 24, 2007 There best for the last 10-15 years, but it isn't as fantastically amazing as people have made out. Find it hard to believe people truly see it as their favourite album ;s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ghost of a chance Posted December 27, 2007 Share Posted December 27, 2007 QUOTE (Jaminbenb @ Dec 15 2007, 04:21 AM) Hard to believe that after 30 years this band can STILL produce great albums! This is one of my all time favorites, and I've been a fan since ATWAS was released! 100% agree !!! (I'm fan since the release of Counterparts) This is one of the best Rush albums ever and one of my favorite Rush albums ever! Few months after the release I still can's stop listening it (sometimes twice a day)...it's...great! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
