Khan Posted March 25, 2010 Posted March 25, 2010 I like them all but DS is my favorite if I have to choose. Bravado with the extended outro just kicks ass and I can't stop listening to it.
Todem Posted May 11, 2010 Posted May 11, 2010 Very very close between DS and ESL. Went with ESL....they have never sounded better or played better than this peroid. everything was clicking to a tee and they were absolute perfectionist's during this peroid. And they had limted technology during this time as comapred to today. I like the open space organic sound plus Neils use of real wood blocks, chimes, timbles, gongs, bells, Cow bells etc....not to be matched....oh and these songs in particular are just the definte versions for me: Passage to Bangkok Beneath, Between, Behind Jacobs Ladder Broons Bane/The Trees/ Xanadu suite - the best live Rush recording ever. La Villa Strangiato - this inspired me to truly pursue writing my own music and finding my own style and sound as a guitarist.
Brizel Posted July 9, 2010 Posted July 9, 2010 There's just something about "All the World's a Stage". I love old RAW stuff .
J2112YYZ Posted July 19, 2010 Posted July 19, 2010 DS for me. All the live albums are good but there's just something downright magical with everything on DS.
Mr. Krinkle Posted July 19, 2010 Posted July 19, 2010 It was either ESL or ATWAS for me.... ESL. That third disc with DS is awesome too!
Flight YYZ Posted July 19, 2010 Posted July 19, 2010 I was introduced to Rush through A Show of Hands, back in 1990. Then I saw the Presto tour (90) and the Roll the Bones tour (92). A few weeks ago, I finally bought Different Stages, which is incredible. Especially the 3rd disk, of the 78 concert in London featuring many of their oldies but goodies. I totally love DS, especially Dreamline, Driven, Analog Kid, the Trees.....I could go on. This is a great compilation of the best live performances of the band over the 70s and 90s, released during a period of time when Neil was grieving his tragic loses of his wife and daughter. Rush has so many great songs spaning four decades, DS embodies their works through those years.
ColdFireYYZ Posted September 12, 2010 Posted September 12, 2010 Different Stages. Every song live is great and its nearly flawless. The Rhythm Method is my favorite solo from Neil.
Ted Barchetta Posted September 25, 2010 Posted September 25, 2010 ATWAS for me. Furiously loud and raw. I love it. It's right behind Live at Leeds as my favorite live album.
teababe27 Posted September 28, 2010 Posted September 28, 2010 I'd say A Show of Hands. It's been growing on me a lot lately. Still love Exit Stage Left, though.
WIDE-ANGLE WATCHER Posted September 30, 2010 Posted September 30, 2010 Different Stages has great songs and a special spot in my heart.....and my leg. http://i815.photobucket.com/albums/zz77/tanhuntland/RUSHIrvine2010040.jpg
2112Oracle Posted October 3, 2010 Posted October 3, 2010 I said Rush In Rio because it was the first Live DVD I ever saw. On VH1 Classic, as well. I also love Show Of Hands too. Because of how Geddy looked. He's one of the only rock musicians that rocked the mullet.
flybyknight Posted October 14, 2010 Posted October 14, 2010 I voted for Different Stages, only for the Hammersmith disk, that was such a surprise when I first played it. I wonder how many more 'nuggets' are in the Rush goldmine?
Itty12 Posted December 9, 2010 Posted December 9, 2010 i have always for some reason liked A show of hands more than any other lice album.
Nate2112 Posted December 30, 2010 Posted December 30, 2010 Different Stages 2112 entirety all for T4E But in second place is ASOH then RIR then ESL then ATWAS
Chicken hawk Posted March 31, 2011 Posted March 31, 2011 I voted for RIR And i love the tattoo Wide- Angel !!
OzzMosiz Posted May 18, 2011 Posted May 18, 2011 A Show Of Hands, gets played in the car at least 2 -3 times a week. Was my first ever Rush album I listened to in 2004
JamesRPJr Posted May 20, 2011 Posted May 20, 2011 The Farewell to Kings disc gives me shivers everytime I hear it! Peace
