I prefer the 77-81 era, but there are also posterior albums such as 'Power Windows' and 'Hold Your Fire' that show much brilliance (specially the latter, though many seem to prefer PW to it). My fave 90s album is 'Test for Echo', which combines the rocking drive of its good predecessor 'Counterparts' and the taste for complex rhythm patterns of their best efforts from the past. 

Each and every live album has been simply terrific!! And the Rush in Rio DVD... ... nothing else to say but good performances, enthusiastic crowds, much fun, and even some images of pretty hot Brazilian girls

Sorry if this post is gonna be a repeated one (and, by the way, sorry if anybody doesn't understand my english jeje).

Let's see, what do you think about the 3 distinct eras of Rush sound (70/80/90's)? which one do you prefer and why?

Personally I love the 70s era, I think that Rush played his true sound during these years. However, the 80's has been a great influence for other kind of bands (specially in progressive metal or neo-prog bands like Queensr˙che, Dream Theater, etc). Sincerely, I disclaim the work that Rush have made in the last 14 years.

At least, Rush have been one of the few bands with dignity along almost 30 years.
