Steel Rat Posted May 23, 2005 Share Posted May 23, 2005 It's a string quartet tribute to some of Rush's best song. Check it out at http://www.rusharchives.com/news/string_tribute.shtml 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest St. Thomas Aquinas Posted May 23, 2005 Share Posted May 23, 2005 I bought this when it came out. It is not too bad actually. I have to be in a certain listening mood for it though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
callmejim Posted May 23, 2005 Share Posted May 23, 2005 I love this, i mean,who'd have thought it? I'm so tempted by the 2112 thing as well-does anyone know if it's done by the same chap? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cygnus_X1 Posted May 23, 2005 Share Posted May 23, 2005 QUOTE (rushnutz @ May 23 2005, 10:28 AM) 2112? Mine doesn't have 2112 on it! I've heard the 2112 one and i was genuinly impressed. As am I by this group I love that 'Tom Sawyer' clip! I never imagined an awesome guitar solo working so well on a violin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
softfilter Posted May 23, 2005 Share Posted May 23, 2005 I have this also , pretty good overall "YYZ" sounds like Itzhak Perllman doing a yiddish hoe down! Highly enjoyable, Also i always thought "Jacobs Ladder" would be good set to a classical arrangement. Like others on the forum i would like to see the music of RUSH with full orchestration.

Steel Rat Posted May 23, 2005 Author Share Posted May 23, 2005 Ya... I found this at the mall here as I was getting ready to see "Star Wars; Revenge of the Sith" last night with my cousins and uncle. My uncle told me not to get it, 'cus it was too expensive there at $18 >_> I was debating between four different albums I needed to get from there; Hold Your Fire ($13), Caress of Steel ($13), Hemispheres ($13) and this album. Which one do you think I shoulda bought? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sullysue Posted May 23, 2005 Share Posted May 23, 2005 I'm sorry.... I guess I'm in a really giggly mood. But, when I started up the Spirit of Radio clip, I almost wet myself!!!! I couldn't even listen to the rest of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get the albums and THEN maybe get the tribute stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So I figured I wanted to hear something more interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
callmejim Posted May 24, 2005 Share Posted May 24, 2005 It's interesting allright! Maybe not as odd as "CoS"(incidentally, my third fave album)but as tribute albums go at least there is a bit of thought gone into it. Go out and buy it now-you'll cream when you hear "The Trees".

I'm so tempted by the 2112 thing as well-does anyone know if it's done by the same chap? Those albums are by Todd Mark Rubinstein, who's a huge Rush fan and a really nice guy. In addition to Exit...Stage Right (ESL lineup) and 2112, he has a piano tribute on the way. And he plays most of the instruments on the albums. http://www.tmrpro.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
