White Shadow

Possibly Rush's most relevant album today.

"Moving Pictures" has stood the test of time very well. I still hear "Tom Sawyer", "YYZ" and "Limelight" in numerous places and radio stations. To me, it goes with and has a connection with "Permanent Waves", much like "Farewell" and "Hemispheres" do. It is very similar, musically and thematically. The first side is extremely popular and holds the songs for which the album is known for. Someone above called it the "perfect side". I actually feel that the second side is what makes it great. They are the three best tracks on the album and holds their last "epic" (eleven minutes) in "The Camera Eye". This is my favorite song here. The other two are magnificent as well. The second half is pure genius.
