1. Counterparts

2. Grace Under Pressure

3. Hemispheres

4. Signals

5. Moving Pictures

6. Clockwork Angels

7. Power Windows

8. Permanent Waves

9. Snakes And Arrows

10. 2112

11. Vapor Trails

12. Test For Echo

13. A Farewell To Kings

14. Hold Your Fire

15. Caress Of Steel

16. Fly By Night

17. Roll The Bones

18. Presto

19. Rush

 

 

Right now Hemispheres has swapped spots with Signals but those two are neck and neck for me. Hard to pit them against each other. The rest is mostly the same except 2112 and Hold Your Fire have moved up. I've come to appreciate Lessons more but I still hate Twilight Zone, and Narp's venture into the Atlantic-era catalog made me dust off Hold Your Fire again. I still only like 5 out of 10 songs, but the quadruple attack of Prime Mover, Lock And Key, Mission, and Turn The Page can't be ignored.

 

I feel really bad for Fountain of Lamneth. What a fantastic song unfortunately weighed down by the rest of the songs on CoS.

 

lol Counterparts first lol lol lol

AFTK 13! :huh:

Ok since I did the 25 greatest RUSH songs I might as well get the best RUSH album out of the way. I have included live albums up until

http://www.progarchives.com/wallpapers/RUSHCOLLAGE.jpg

 

Grace Under Pressure

2112

Permanent Waves

Vapor Trails

Exit Stage Left

Moving Pictures....due to the song The Camera Eye

Clockwork Angels

Hemispheres

Hold Your Fire

All The Worlds Stage

A Farewell To Kings

Caress Of Steel

Signals

Different Stages

RUSH

Presto

Power Windows

Counterparts

Fly By Night

Roll The Bones

Feedback

Snakes & Arrows

A Show Of Hands

Test For Echo

 

I hope I didn't leave out any of RUSHs great work throughout the years.

 

Some changes are coming to this listing of RUSH albums as I'm going through the Sectors 1 2 3. I was so impressed relistening to Presto which will be moved up but I'll wait till Sector 3 comes in then Sector 1. The Presto Tour was the first Rush Tour I took a young lady on a date, first girl I met who was as big a Rush fan as I was....man was she ever flexible being a gymnast.

You missed RTB

 

I was going to switch them, got distracted and wound up leaving in HYF twice. I'll fix it tomorrow. Maybe by then I will revise the entire list. I really have a hard time rating the first ten or so albums. Doesn't seem fair to favor one more than the other and I always feel bad having to do it.
