Got's it but I have to rip it to my card. Much hilarity will ensue as my computers can't access the internet properly and give me song info. It's hard to rip as the process sucks balls.

Unboxing
the Live In YYZ show is a treasure.
I have waited over 40 years to get this tour on CD.
I was never happy with Exit Stage Left because of the muffled mix and editing.
this show as a 3LP set should have been ESL!
So, the wait is finally over, and Rush fans finally get the holy grail of live albums – a complete show from the Moving Pictures tour!
Oh, and the studio album isn’t too shabby either…
I’ve blogged some thoughts on this new release, why it might just be the finest sounding version of Moving Pictures to date, and how the live set compares to Exit…Stage Left.
Hope you find it interesting.

Have they done one of these releases with 2112? What special 2112 version is there aside from the one with the 5.1in one of those sets of 3-5 albums?
Yes, in 2012 there was a deluxe edition with the remastered CD and 5.1 DVD, as well as a few live tracks tacked on haphazardly. Every time I look at it, I regret selling my original, as I despise the changed artwork. Maybe I'll trade it in and get the original CD again. I do love 5.1, but it isn't really necessary for this album IMO.

Rush, "2112" 40th Anniversary Box...
https://www.rush.com/2112-40th/
The video from the Capitol Theater 1976 is a complete show.

The Capitol Theater had an in-house closed circuit setup for their shows. While they seem to all be B&W, they must have a shitload of footage in their archive. I saw Johnny Winter there once. Pretty scary town. My car got broken into, and the cops were, unsurprisingly, less than helpful.

I heard a 45-minute version of "The Camera Eye" the other day.
Okay, it was an earworm while I was cutting my grass, but still...

I didn't get the deluxe 2112, mostly because I had no interest in the covers disc and the monochrome footage at the Capital never looked good to me. Great show, but mediocre visuals. I've got All the World's a Stage if I want a document of that tour.

^ Yeah, I don't get the covers thing at all.
The Exit Stage Left tour was my first Rush show at Wembley Arena, happy days.
That was my third. I first saw Rush with Rory Gallagher and Nazareth (Montreal 74), Hemispheres (Long Beach 78) and the Exit Stage Left (1981 at Brendan Byrne arena NJ). I had already been blown away in 1978 when I discovered how awesome they were live.
But the anniversary series appears to only commemorate studio albums, not live albums so I doubt the "Exit" album will see a special treatment
I may be older but, I saw live: Led Zeppelin, Yes, ELP, Jethro Tull, King Crimson, Fish, Black Sabbath, Deep Purple, Marillion, IQ, UK, Saga, Rush, Supertramp, Pink Floyd, Genesis with Peter Gabriel, Steve Hackett, Triumph, Magma, Goblin, Porcupine Tree, The Musical Box, Uriah Heep, Dio, David Bowie, Iron Maiden, Queen with Freddie Mercury, George Harrison, Paul McCartney, Elton John, Eric Clapton & Steve Winwood, Steely Dan, Dream theater, Joe Satriani, you get the idea..
Well I guess the live show included in the new set kind of makes Exit Stage Left redundant. I've just started reading Martin Popoff's book 'Limelight-Rush In The 80's and got to the Exit Stage Left chapter - the opening quote is "I think we recorded a fairly sterile live record".
Same re: covers. There's a side of covers with AFTK 40th too that I listened to once. In fact, I only got through half of DT's Xanadu because it seems so pointless to record a verbatim cover of a Rush tune. And the video footage has been on YouTube for years. I love it, but not enough to drop the bucks for the anniversary set.
I also skipped Hemispheres. Partly because I already had a fresh vinyl copy of side 1 on a Record Store Day release (CX1:Book I is on the flip side). And partly because I didn't think the audio quality of the Pink Pop stuff was particularly great.
This morning I received the MP 40th, and I know what I'm doing tonight. Riding the train to Bangkok and spinning Live in YYZ!
I was just listening the Moving Pictures surround mixes on the Blu-ray Disc. There seems to be a missing beat in “Witch Hunt”. Just after the line “the lonely torchlit hill”, a cowbell strike is missing and the guitar comes straight in instead of waiting one more beat.
The CD is fine.
Anyone else with the big box notice this?
Am I hearing this right?
On Live in YYZ, Red Barchetta starts…
“We’d like to do a song for you now that takes place in Rochester I think…”
That sounds like something a lead singer would say to get a local crowd excited. Why would Ged say that to a Toronto crowd?
Could this song’s recording be from Rochester, NY later in the 1981 tour???
