MOVING PICTURES

This seems to be rush most popular album on PA and its not hard to see why this one got everything that made rush great all thiere earlier experimnets redifined and made radiofriendly, and there is one of the problems for me with this one it sounds a bit slick and slimed they have draged down on the heavy factor and started to use more keyboards insted of guitars. Well the thing the album got going for it is that it got the tunes atleast probobly some of the best rush ever made, like the opening Tom Sawyer, Red Barchetta, YYZ and Limelight its simply one great song after the other and great variation. the 10min long The camera eye is no doubt the most prog song and without it the album whuld be more of a classic rock album then a prog rock album too be honest. the 2 ending songs after the mini epic are allso very good but a bit les known then the rest, The witch hunt is a hunting and a bit creepy sounding and very good song and the ending Vital signs is another great rocker with amazing riffs. I still prefer Hemispheres over this becaus its simply heavier and rawer and les polished sounding then this one. This was rush trying to make a greatest hits album and succeding pretty well. 4,5 stars
