POWER WINDOWS... As album isn't good as Permanent or Moving but it was the first original Rush album that I bought when I was 13yo and every song brings me memories of those years when I strarted to discover prog...

As good as Permanent Waves and Moving Pictures are, I am one of those peculiar Signals-loving Rush fans. It is probably my second favorite Rush album (after AFTK) and the one I find myself listening to the most.

Well, I'm a devout Permanent Waves fan myself. Natural Science is pure genius! But if I hadto choose a fave album then it's Caress of Steel, hands down.

have some clappies....  it probably is my favorite as well.  Not their best of course... just the most fun to listen to for me.

of the 80's albums.....  loved Signals so much...  the next albums disappointed me so much.. they lost me.. and have never gone back I guess

edit... damn... forgot your clappies..

Caress Of Steel would've been so much better if I Think I'm Going Bald ceased to exist.

The other albums don't compare to these two.
