Ted Barchetta Posted March 6, 2011 Share Posted March 6, 2011 Side One: The Spirit Of Radio The Trees Bastille Day Closer To The Heart Side Two: 2112: Overture/Temples Of Syrinx Hemispheres (Prelude) La Villa Strangiato By-Tor/In The End/In The Mood/Grand Finale (The medley from the end of the ESL DVD.) Side One as a best-of-both-worlds mix between epic and short, while Side Two is all out, balls-to-the-wall epic progressive RUSH. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bastille Dave Posted March 6, 2011 Share Posted March 6, 2011 well, if it came out in say 1982 (38-40 minutes long), I'd go with: 1. 2112 Overture-Temples 2. Bytor 3. Xanadu 4. Natural Science 5. YYZ 6. LVS 2006 release bonus tracks: 7. Analog Kid 8. Didacts And Narpets/No One At The Bridge (hey, gotta have CoS in there, right?) 9. Camera Eye 10. Circumstances 11. Cygnus X-1 these arent necessarily my favorite 11 tracks, I just tried to create an overview and flow to it. Very hard to make an 80 minute cd by Rush, or even two of 'em.

Scary These were my 8 songs!! This really doesn't surprise me at all. Most Rush Fans are connected to the same "Hemispheres" which are deeply embedded inside many "Universal Juveniles." Signed, MAX WEBSTER My Top 8 at the moment: 1. YYZ 2. The Sphere 3. The Trees 4. Between The Wheels 5. Losing It 6. Ghost Of A Chance 7. Natural Science 8.

Todem Posted March 8, 2011 Share Posted March 8, 2011 Wow super tough. Side one The Spirit of Radio Freewill Red Barchetta Subdivisions Side Two Limelight The Analog Kid Xanadu La Villa Strangiato Amazingly tough but those 8 songs define Rush for me if I had to pick the ultimate 8 song album.

Todem Posted March 8, 2011 Share Posted March 8, 2011 QUOTE (rushgoober @ Mar 5 2011, 11:20 AM) I really wouldn't want to mix and match eras so much, so I'd like to keep existing album sides and make them into something exceptional: OPTION 1 Side 1: Tom Sawyer Red Barchetta YYZ Limelight Side 2: The Spirit of Radio Freewill Jacob's Ladder OPTION 2 Side 1: A Farewell to Kings Xanadu Closer to the Heart Side 2: Circumstances The Trees La Villa Strangiato (ok I cheated a little by including CTTH from side 2 of AFTK, but WTF, ya know?) Well if we have option 2 I will go with: Side one Hemispheres Cygnus X1 Book II Side Two Tom Sawyer YYZ Mission Jacobs Ladder I like my first one better overall but this one also is a killer.
