Midway Hawker Posted August 24, 2004 Share Posted August 24, 2004 This one is just too tough, the whole album is so incredible. The sound they captured here is genius. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Relaxed_Jack Posted August 24, 2004 Share Posted August 24, 2004 VERY tough choice....I choose Freewill! Wrong album.....Uh.........I picked the Trees. Still have this picture in my head of Alex starting the song playing his Accoustic guitar and tossing it Stage Right and seeing the stage hand DROPPING IT!!

The Notorious B.S.G. Posted August 24, 2004 Share Posted August 24, 2004 Great album. All great songs, but the title track epic, "Cygnus X-1, Book II" is their best work ever IMO. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jack Aubrey Posted August 24, 2004 Share Posted August 24, 2004 'La Villa'. Another fun piece. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CygnusX-1Bk2 Posted August 24, 2004 Share Posted August 24, 2004 Title track. Again, more individuality but with a twist. Aside from that it is awesome musically on all accounts. I cannot think of anything wrong with this album, except for the tape stock they used for recording it. Noisey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pixey Posted August 25, 2004 Share Posted August 25, 2004 I choose La Villa simply for one piece of work in Alexs song, I believe it is A Lerxst In Wonderland. The softness, yearning of it. That piece of music is just one of the best ever wrote, it speaks to me. Everytime I hear it I get chills! That part just does something to me that no other piece of music has ever done.

Snowdog Posted August 27, 2004 Share Posted August 27, 2004 I don't care how many times I've heard it, I could listen to La Villa over and over and over. It's just one of my all time faves by any band. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any chance to see him shred is one to relish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HAZMAT001 Posted August 29, 2004 Share Posted August 29, 2004 By far i have to give this one a tie Cygnus/LaVilla Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Proggy Posted September 5, 2004 Share Posted September 5, 2004 (edited) Sweet, I just made it a tie between Hemis and La Villa. The title track was the first ever Rush song I listened to (and no, it did not happen in the late seventies but last September! LOL) so I suppose it will always be a bit special for that reason alone. Plus it is a musical and compositional (umm, is that a word? ) masterpiece. It has everything.
