Segue Myles Posted May 30, 2015 Share Posted May 30, 2015 In so many ways I agree. I may not enjoy it as much as other albums, but personal taste aside, its classic status is deserved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Narps Posted May 30, 2015 Share Posted May 30, 2015 (edited) Couldn't disagree more. It was worth recording but I wish they would have recorded it better is all. Nothing epic about it in my view besides The Garden and Halo Effect. If it were produced in a more less is more way 3 or 4 other songs could be considered very good to excellent. Nothing on it makes me want to forget anything pre 81' 84'... :codger: Edited May 30, 2015 by Narps 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anthem74 Posted May 30, 2015 Share Posted May 30, 2015 I'm digging a lot of the material on it. I never really sat down and gave it "the listen" but hearing it again, I really like some of the material on it especially The Wreckers and the title track.

Segue Myles Posted May 30, 2015 Share Posted May 30, 2015 don't get me started, lol Mick I loved it passionately for a long while. Based on that, and the fact it cemented my interest in the band, means I regard it as a late career classic (but otherwise, compared to the best they did, fairly middle of the road). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mention CA, the art of yodeling, Vapor Trails and any live DVD made this decade and the buttons are being pushed and I do this usually... :d13: and enjoy the show.

Narps Posted May 30, 2015 Share Posted May 30, 2015 Best album since power windows. At least 4 or 5 classic tracks on there.I have come to find out that I think HYF is better and Presto is its equal at least. A year ago I would have agreed with your statement however even given my dislike of its production... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It did make a nice Record Store Day item though. Edited May 30, 2015 by anthem74 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure if you are in the geriatric club yet... :codger: 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YYZumbi Posted May 30, 2015 Share Posted May 30, 2015 I love Rush more then anyone here... but even I must say that this is not their best album... Snakes & Arrows was a MUCH better album! It is a few good songs on it, such as BU2B2 and The Garden. Rest is kinda boring... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
