As far as tribute albums go, this homage to seminal Canadian rockers Rush is hard to beat. For one thing, Magna Carta has made an inspired decision to have each song recorded by an all-star lineup rather than letting one band handle all the chores (with one exception -- Fates Warning get sole credit for " Closer to the Heart"). Often projects of this magnitude are doomed to failure from the start as a result of inadequate rehearsing, a shoestring budget, & sometimes a lack of talent capable of ...

All tracks have been digitally remastered.2112 is archetypal high-concept heavy/art-rock, featuring an interconnected suite of songs & a futuristic science fiction-inspired lyrical theme (courtesy of drummer/sole lyricist Neil Peart). When it came to '70s sci fi rock epics these guys were ca ...

Rush: Geddy Lee (vocals, keyboards, bass); Alex Lifeson (guitar); Neil Peart (drums, percussion). Recorded at Rockfield Studios, Wales in June 1977. All tracks have been digitally remastered. Taking a cue from other art-rock groups like Yes & Genesis, Rush expressed a penchant for fantasy & science fiction themes on A FAREWELL TO KINGS. Coupling the increasingly intricate arrangements of Geddy Lee & Alex Lifeson with the creative lyrics of Neil Peart, the power trio format is stre ...

Rush: Geddy Lee (vocals, bass, keyboards); Alex Lifeson (guitar); Neil Peart (drums, percussion). Continuing a tradition that began more than a decade earlier, Rush follows its 12th (!) studio album with a live one, A SHOW OF HANDS. The album draws almost exclusively from the third chapter of Rush's life, 1982-89, stressing the notion that their newer material was just as important as their classics. By this time they had eschewed the typical guitar trio sound for one that emphasized layers a ...

All tracks have been digitally remastered. After building up a cult following with many years of non-stop touring, Rush nearly lost their fans with CARESS OF STEEL. Taking their cue from British bands like Yes & Genesis, they began to expand their sound beyond that of a typical power trio. Gone were the riff-based songs & extended jams, replaced with more intricate arrangements, multi-part songs & deeper, introspective lyrics. Ironically, it was these elements that would later win them an int ...

Rush: Geddy Lee (vocals, synthesizer, bass); Alex Lifeson (guitar, bass pedal synthesizer); Neil Peart (drums, percussion). Hot on the heels of their most successful album, Rush's 1981 tour was documented & released as EXIT, itself a Top 10 record. The package is an essential purchase for Rush diehards as well as hard rock fans. It makes a fine companion to ALL THE WORLD'S A STAGE, as there are no repeated tracks. The two live records combine to make a fine representation of Rush's prime er ...

Rush: Geddy Lee (vocals, classical guitar, bass); Alex Lifeson (guitar); Neil Peart (drums). Recorded at Toronto Sound Studios, Toronto, Canada. All tracks have been digitally remastered. Rush's sophomore release FLY BY NIGHT has become a milestone in their recording career. Although such future releases as 2112, HEMISPHERES, PERMANENT WAVES, & MOVING PICTURES would be superior albums, FLY BY NIGHT signaled a change from Led Zep blues-rock to more original & challenging material. But m ...

Rush: Geddy Lee (vocals, synthesizers, bass); Alex Lifeson (guitar); Neil Peart (drums, percussion). Recorded at Rockfield Studios, Wales between June & July 1978. All tracks have been digitally remastered. Rush began life as a power trio in the Led Zeppelin/heavy rock mode. Over the years the band refined their musical vision as they gained both instrumental & conceptual facility. 1978's HEMISPHERES marks their transition from heavy riff-mongers to full blown art-rockers. Lee, Lifeso ...
