No disagreement there. It said this in the profile about Matt Wardlaw (the writer of that article): "Matt enjoys...Cherone-era Van Halen and driving long distances to Night Ranger concerts." That says a lot. The Seeker is #1. yeah ok. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
apetersvt Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 I had this on tape years ago. No clue where it is. If I had to choose between this and TM live, I'm going into a Time Machine back to 1974. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BaldiePete Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 I got my copy today. Unfortunately it's been sourced from MP3 files. Check out these waveforms comparing it to a lossless copy of the 5th Order of Angels boot of the same show. Waveforms from Rush ABC 1974. The frequency cut-off at 16kHz is a dead give-away for MP3 sourced files. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v308/BaldiePete/rushabcspectral.jpg Waveforms from my lossless copy of 5th Order Of Angels. There is no 16kHz cut-off and the frequencies go right up to 22kHz http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v308/BaldiePete/5thorderspectral.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ron2112 Posted October 26, 2011 Share Posted October 26, 2011 Interested as to where y'all got your copies. I received an e-mail from Amazon the other day, saying the order had been cancelled, as Amazon was unable to get any copies from their supplier.

Tel, I think the difference is that now, only the secondary sellers show up on Amazon, whereas the previous offer was to buy from them directly. I still think this is basically a bootleg that slipped through the cracks, which has been known to happen on Amazon from time to time. Ron Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since it appears the '74 release isn't official, I guess I'll try to download the bootleg version (apparently getting hte same thing). If the '74 show ever becomes official, I will definately get it. I wasn't blown away with the TM show so I doubt I will get it. I've watched the VH1 Classic version a few times. If the DVD has some extra goodies I may change my mind. With a DVD every tour nowdays, I'm not as compelled to get them. I don't have S&A live, but that is the only one I haven't bought. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anthem 14. Beneath, Between & Behind 15. Fly By Night -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Product Description CD Description The history of the ever mighty Rush goes back to 1968 when the group first got together, but it was not until 1974 that the band proper with Neal Peart joining Geddy Lee and Alex Lifeson to make for the line-up we have known and loved ever since came to the fore. Peart joined just two weeks before Rush s first US tour and it was during this American jaunt that the guys played the infamous Agora Ballroom, Cleveland - a venue at which the group would go onto play numerous more shows during their formative years. At their 1974 booking however, radio station WMMS radio was on hand to broadcast the whole event across the airwaves and thus make this particular gig a somewhat notorious event as well as being Rush s very first radio broadcast. The set played by the group that hot August evening in America s dark industrial underbelly, includes songs from their debut album, Rush, and features two early versions of cuts from their sophomore record, Fly by Night. The show also contained a cover of Larry Williams Bad Boy a 1950s rocker and no mistake - plus incredibly, two excellent tracks that have never been released on any previous Rush release; the super-rare Fancy Dancer and Garden Road , both composed in their very earliest incarnation before Neal Peart was on board. The package is completed by three bonus tracks from their second US broadcast, back at the ABC a year later, and again courtesy of their by then long time champions, WMMR Cleveland. All three songs from the 75 set originated on Fly By Night. This rare recording is now available legitimately for the first time and with de-luxe packaging, designed with the collector in mind, will prove a must have item for Rush s enormous army of fans still fighting the cause well over 40 years into a quite marvellous career.

Except that it's not legitimate. This company is selling a bootleg. That's all this is! The band isn't seeing a dime, nobody even related to the band has any say in this thing. The cover art isn't from the time period of the recording, the audio appears to be sourced from MP3's... Why anyone would still be considering spending money on this is beyond me. Save yourself some money: download the Fifth Order of Angels bootleg (which is what this CD is), print out your own artwork and put it in an empty CD case. There. Just saved you $20 or however much these scammers are charging. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or is it a CDR with a fancy label? Peace, Ron It's a silver. It's packaged OK for a cheapo release. Standard jewel case in a cardboard slip case, all with the same picture (as pointed out, from the wrong era) with Alex and Geddy both playing double necks. I'll put up some scans.
