DirtyMidnighter Posted December 1, 2015 Posted December 1, 2015 I'm sure this has been done to death but I'm curious about everyone's favorite bootlegs. I found this one from the Counterparts tour that is absolutely amazing quality called A Night At The Spectrum: Please let me know which are your personal faves! 3
Lorraine Posted December 1, 2015 Posted December 1, 2015 I love bootlegs as many here know and prefer them most of the time to anything official. Bootlegs have a charm that gets lost in the professional stuff. In my opinion only. Here's a few of my favorites: Anaheim 1981 RemasterChicago DefinitiveCool Under FireThe Hartford 90 Right now I am listening to an audio boot from the Las Vegas R40 tour. No, it's no Bottrill, but it's good. :)
Bigbobby10 Posted December 1, 2015 Posted December 1, 2015 A Desert Passage was always my favorite, great sound for 79' 7
DirtyMidnighter Posted December 1, 2015 Author Posted December 1, 2015 I think this is the best Hemispheres one: Universe Divided 2
DirtyMidnighter Posted December 1, 2015 Author Posted December 1, 2015 Why is the Signals Tour so under-represented in both number of recored shows and quality? And yet there seem to be a ton of good Grace Under Pressure ones... 1

And yet there seem to be a ton of good Grace Under Pressure ones... I don't know why but you are right that it is. That's one tour I wish they had more boots of too. If you love bootlegs so much, why don't you put your name on the list for the bootleg hard drive?

DirtyMidnighter Posted December 1, 2015 Author Posted December 1, 2015 Hartford 90 seems to be the best Presto one. 1
jamie Posted December 2, 2015 Posted December 2, 2015 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v9cqIPwAjL8Mirrors is really good
EagleMoon Posted December 2, 2015 Posted December 2, 2015 A Desert Passage was always my favorite, great sound for 79' http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jJpJI9nPrFU I love this one in particular because it was recorded about 10 days prior to my seeing them for the first time. 1
Lucas Posted December 2, 2015 Posted December 2, 2015 I think this is the best Hemispheres one: Universe Divided Universe Divided is my favorite !
Lucas Posted December 2, 2015 Posted December 2, 2015 (edited) A Desert Passage was always my favorite, great sound for 79' Love that tour The stuff Geddy starts doing just prior to the "I have memory and awareness" section of Hemispheres ( 1:03:25ish ) is awesome - I wish they would have extended stuff like that out on the albums ( ... as if an entire side wasn't already long enough for one song ) . . .

Some creepy stuff right there.
DirtyMidnighter Posted December 2, 2015 Author Posted December 2, 2015 Signals: Live In Hartford 83' honestly, I'm just using this thread to keep track of my favs at this point lol
RUSHHEAD666 Posted December 2, 2015 Posted December 2, 2015 (edited) I own tons of Rush boots. Many on vinyl, a plethora on cd. They all sound great to me. I'm a whore though. I don't have "condom sense." Edited December 2, 2015 by RUSHHEAD666
Tony R Posted December 2, 2015 Posted December 2, 2015 Bootlegs are overrated.Collecting bootlegs is the musical version of collecting comics, only for geeks and saddoes.
Jomboni Posted December 2, 2015 Posted December 2, 2015 Do you hate puppies and rainbows too? I don't "collect" boots but it's definitely nice to have a few great sounding recordings from tours they didn't release official live discs for. My 2 favorites that I have are A Desert Passage and The Philadelphia Project (Power Windows tour!) 1
Lorraine Posted December 2, 2015 Posted December 2, 2015 I don't collect them either. I really enjoy listening to them. I know I'm not a geek, and I'm sorry I looked up what a saddo is. i still love my bootlegs. 1
RUSHFREAK101 Posted December 2, 2015 Posted December 2, 2015 another good is Great Woods and Summer Skies from the Test for Echoes tour 1
RUSHFREAK101 Posted December 2, 2015 Posted December 2, 2015 and also Finding Prime wow this show was just before they released Fly by Night, great version of Bad Boys and Working man ( they incorporate part of By-Tor) 1
