bluefox4000 Posted July 13, 2015 Share Posted July 13, 2015 Listening to it again now. Goodness, I know it's a good album all around (well, almost), but every time I hear TSS I just wish the whole album sounded like that. That has got to be one of Rush's best ever songs, maybe even better than Limelight... I think TSS is better then limelight.....but that's probably due to overexposure. nevertheless TSS is a gem.

Lorraine Posted July 13, 2015 Share Posted July 13, 2015 It's my number 2 Rush album now. perfect........Save for those damn last 2. way to trip up boys, lol anyway.....Prime mover is one of my very fav Rush tunes. Mick I just don't get how those last two are bad songs. Haha They are AWFUL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! they had a wonderful album at Turn the page, dammit, haha. It's a real brain teaser those two, lol Mick Its a very trendy thing to say these days.

Rush Fan in Michigan Posted July 13, 2015 Share Posted July 13, 2015 My second-favorite Rush album, for some very personal reasons. Rush R40 Countdown at No. 2: Hold Your Fire, Presto, life-changing albums without apologies Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bigbobby10 Posted July 13, 2015 Share Posted July 13, 2015 The guitar solo at the end of mission (live) is one of my favorite guitar solos from Alex also, one of the big reasons why i love the album 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Digital Dad Posted July 13, 2015 Share Posted July 13, 2015 HYF was released when I became a fan. I put it alongside Floyds AMLOR for that reason as well as them both being released on the same day. Pretty cool. Two icons going in similar directions. They both looked really great on cd but I probabaly had the tapes first. Man those spent a lot of time in my Walkman!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Presto has two songs on it that I usually skip- and they're right next to each other. But the other nine are great great great. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes released "Big Generator" a couple of weeks later and Jethro Tull had released "Crest of a Knave" in 1987, just not sure at what time of the year. I think the Who were going on one of their big tours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndroidOnTheRun Posted July 13, 2015 Share Posted July 13, 2015 Thin production to me goes to RTB. Presto could use more kick. but RTB is the light weight champ to me, lol MickYeah. I may be biased because I prefer the songwriting on Presto overall to RTB (exceptions in both cases, of course), but Presto at least has some atmosphere. RTB jettisons the atmosphere but doesn't replace it with any bite. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But forgot to fill the void. well i should say they filled it. just didn't fleash it out. if that makes sense. Mick 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
