This has almost certainly been posted before, but it is new to me and maybe to some of you also!

 

 

Tough Break, apparently recorded in 1981 during the mixing of ESL, with Rush on drums, keys, guitars and Jack Secret on vocals.

My god that was horrible....

 

Back during the mixing of Exit... Stage Left Rush along with crew members Jack Secret (aka Tony Geranios) and Skip Gildersleeve recorded a song written by Jack Secret called Tough Break, as chronicled in the Signals Tourbook by Neil Peart.

This is news to me. And I thought I knew everything about Rush!

 

The picture at 2:40 is priceless! Geddy looks like an alien at the helm of a space ship! Lol

Seconded. I feel like I need to scrub my brain.

 

Maybe listening to 'Battle Scar' will cleanse my "Rush Collaborating With Other People" memory:

But it definitely has an aura of Signals! wink.gif

I dunno. Wasn't too bad. Would have been better if someone else sang...or had different lyrics...or different music.

 

Or wasn't recorded.

I heard this YEARS back...I think it's stuck on at the end of a bootleg cassette I got in a trade about a million years ago. Wasn't really sure what it was at the time.

Apparently, it is still around because it was stuck on the end of a Power Windows bootleg, even though it was recorded during ESL mixing.
