Lorraine Posted January 31, 2015 Author Share Posted January 31, 2015 Yes, they were giants at that time. You couldn't turn on the radio without hearing them. All the time. From my recollection, and I admit my memory isn't what it once was, that ended after Grace Under Pressure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rutlefan Posted January 31, 2015 Share Posted January 31, 2015 Where I lived it ended after Signals, except for playing past material. But I tended to listen to traditional rock stations or college rock/alternative stations; maybe other kinds of stations played late '80s Rush. I guess someone must have.

Lorraine Posted January 31, 2015 Author Share Posted January 31, 2015 The next big "hit" after Distant Early Warning that I remember hearing a lot was Dreamline. I listened to whatever was available in the NYC area on the FM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnRogers Posted October 10, 2015 Share Posted October 10, 2015 It doesn't matter if Permanent Waves "feels" like a 1970's album. It is a fact that it was officially released on January 1, 1980.IMO it sounds like an 80's album, it is connected sound wise more toward MP and Signals than Hemispheres.What a fool I was... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Text For Echo Posted October 11, 2015 Share Posted October 11, 2015 I guess it depends on if you're classifying it by release date or recording dates. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geddy's Soul Patch Posted October 11, 2015 Share Posted October 11, 2015 To anyone who believes PeW to be an 80s album based on the release date, I ask this question: Do you consider the Hammersmith Odeon show from 1978 released on Different Stages to be a 90s live recording? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnnyBlaze Posted October 11, 2015 Share Posted October 11, 2015 You guys are on acid. It's "on a timeless wavelength" and belongs in every decade. Let's debate something that matters like how long Geddy's shoelaces should be. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Na na na Posted October 11, 2015 Share Posted October 11, 2015 (edited) I didn't know this about Permanent Waves... Although long held to a symbolic release date of January 1, 1980, it is believed that the album was released in the U.S. on January 14, 1980.
