Did you ever not bother with certain Rush songs, then love them years later?

[That One Guy]

It's the story of TOG, and it's happened more than once.

 

For whatever reason, having listened to Hold Your Fire about four years ago, the only song I hadn't heard was High Water. Which I listened to, for the first time, Monday, and liked it very much. The only HYF song I passed up is probably my second favorite behind Open Secrets.

 

I'm reminded of the fact I have not heard all of Rush or Fly By Night, and I might get on that.

[Cyclonus X-1]

I've bothered with all of them, but I didn't like Manhattan Project very much for a long time. Seeing it live during the CA Tour led to it eventually becoming a favorite of mine.

Fly by Night is a great album. The debut is cool too.

No.

I think it's time to dust off I Think I'm Going Bald.

 

Truly one of the 1970s more peculiar hard rock songs.

2 songs that i love now that i used to not listen to.

 

Available Light

 

Red Tide

 

Never listened to Presto much, these 2 songs makes the album one of my favorites now

[The Analog Cub]

Vapor Trails was pretty much unlistenable then the remix came out and I love listening to most of it.

 

I almost never listened to Test For Echo because it's not an album anyone really thinks about when they want to listen to Rush, then I popped it in a couple of years ago and it's got some great stuff on it like the title track, which could be a top 10-20 favorite for me.

This made me because it's true.

 

Mine is really similar but you could add Power Windows and take out Snakes and Arrows.

I was listening to HYF this afternoon and boy does it sound like they sold out during that album. Maybe not intentionally and maybe not consciously but it definitely sounds like radio friendly blandness. Don't get me wrong, I've kind of learned to like a lot of it over the years mainly because we're beyond that point now. All the goofy clothes and the bad haircuts. It helps to have heard some it live and get a different viewpoint on it as well. But boy between it and Presto, those were the anti-Rush years.
