I must play my 40 year old vinyl soon.

I played my vinyl yesterday...I actually prefer the OG cd from the 80s or whenever, slightly more detail up top. This fuckin album is solid top 5 for me, which hurts because then either 2112, Caress, or Kings goes into the swamp. But I just play P/G more these days, it's more interesting to my ears. My sweet spot for this band has turned out to be late 70's to mid 80's (Hemispheres through P/G), but I still love Caress too. I might need my prog membership card revoked.

I don't like Caress Of Steel at all so you can take my card away!

(GUP is great. My review: https://pienemmatpurot.com/review-ru...pressure-1984/)

Agree. I bought it upon release, and they were my main band at that point. Didn't hate it, but it was a big disappointment. 2112 helped level me up, though.

Nice of someone to commemorate the 40th Anniversary of this great album. Rush certainly didn't.

Well there's still time yet, all the other 40th anniversary releases were rather late and Grace was still a platinum album so hopefully we'll get some good bonus live stuff.

To my ear "Distant Early Warning" and "The Big Money" off the next album go together and are back to back in my playlist. Not sure why I thought of that but whatever.

This guy is truly admirable, thanks for sharing YT link!

I bought the LP for 2112 on it's release date. Saw the concert. Still, easily my favourite Rush album (although Hemispheres comes close).
