Performances: I dunno, probably about 8-10 throughout

 

Production: 5 because it sounds like a studio album

[savagegrace26]

Freewill and Tom Sawyer's tempos are kind of sloppy.

To me, exit could have been better, I wore it out in its day, but it needed to feel more like a live album.

I remember when I first got this album Freewill and Tom Sawyer were the least interesting tracks and I usually skipped them. Edited September 23, 2014 by savagegrace26

Same, all 10's.

For me, Tom Sawyer is the only track that is inferior to the studio version. My favorite live album, I don't care if the thing was doctored up in a studio, this is how I like my Rush to sound.

passage to Bangkok is great on here.

You're right. Changed my rating. Can't edit initial post anymore...why do they do that?

I was so dissapointed in this album . I remember listening to it when it came out and thinking it didn't sound like the band I saw in concert.

 

I have the remaster and still to this day haven't listened to it.

[nicky6]

nappy, yes, it could have been better. I would have liked it to have more of geddys banter between songs, and instead of la villa, replace with limelight and vital signs.. and fade outs and fade ins only on side changes.

The fades between songs always annoyed me...I actually might edit it so it's seamless.

I wish they would re-release this with the complete show and clean up the "muddy" sound.

 

That being said, it has such a sentimental place in my heart, as it came out when I was a senior in high school and my friends and I played the album to death.
