Agreed.

1 - Freewill
2 - Jacob's Ladder
3a - Entre Nous 
3b - Different Strings 
3c - Natural Science 
4 - The Spirit of Radio 

I did the a,b,c because on any given day those songs can move up or down the list. Spirit is a song that I don't need to hear ever again.

One of my favorite Rush albums, and I have to go with Natural Science. Different Strings is a close second though.

Free Will

Jacob's Ladder gets the nod, followed by Freewill and Spirit of Radio.
Welcome to the middle of the film.

A great album, nothing mediocre on it.

But Jacob's Ladder is simply immense.

Jacobs Ladder for me.

A very strong album all round.
Ultimately bored by endless ecstasy!

The ones I really love on this album are Jakob's Ladder and Natural Science. I think Natural Science would take my overall preference, but I would need to listen to it again to make sure.

Natural Science for sure, but Freewill is not far behind.
This is a great Rush record, more accessible for starters than their earlier material.

I don't normally like Rush all that much, but Jacob's Ladder is actually quite great; the one song that lives up to Rush's reputation. Permanent Waves in general might be their most consistently listenable album.

As I've already stated, I don't like Rush all that lot. But Different Strings and Natural Science where two great songs. Alongside The Camera Eye.
Classical music isn't dead, it's more alive than it's ever been. It's just not on MTV.

Freewill is the ass-kicker here.  Just play that solo again if you doubt me.  Smile
