Lorraine Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 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...Snakes is shit. Talk about a boring set of dirgelike snoozers. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Narps Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 2015 Good late career album. But it's doesn't touch any of the classic 75 to 85 output. I'm honestly baffled as to how anyone can place it in the top 5. ^^^^ This but I would add 74' in as well. Just my opinion. I would listen to The Debut over CA twice on Sundays and the rest of the week of course... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like CA better but it's better than anything between S&A and p/g except maybe VT. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnRogers Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 2015 How would Presto sound and be received if it was a BROON recording? Discuss.Without new songs Broon would have walked off the set. Or lost all respect from me if not. FickleIt's a hypothetical. And it's silly to think he would have stood for that crap.Of course it is. I'm trying to imagine the songs on the album recorded with Terry Brown's special sauce. Of course Presto is still better than anything by the Cutting Crew.

I'm trying like hell to have it take hold, but it isn't. I enjoy it . Don't dislike it. But it doesn't stay with me. As a comparison, HYF took a while to grab me. But when it did, I loved it. Maybe CA will as well. But I don't think so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After never hearing it for all those many many years and thinking Mission would be the only song on it that I would truly love, man was I wrong. It didn't take that many listens either to take hold. The first eight there isn't a skipper in the bunch. The last two I just can't listen to and have tried... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's just that I can imagine it being on snakes and arrows for some reason with lyrics about religion and terrorists. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
