 Topic: Favourite 1980's Rush Album?
Posted: April 09 2007 at 13:24 |
Presto, easily. 
I have always loved the songs, Alex's guitar work, Geddy's singing and the overall production on this album.
Second, probably Power Windows. (My fave Rush album for a short while)
Can't choose a third, too close to call.

Has to be Signals. Hard to explain why, I just happen to like it more.
But none of them are bad (although Permanent Waves and Presto tend to
bore me).

Permanent Waves for me - it's probably my favourite album of all eras of Rush.

Ya know, I actually like that song... But yeah, I agree with your comment.  So anyways, since Moving Pictures got such a high vote.. I might as well go ahead and buy it... since it's one of the few I don't have yet.

- Moving Pictures
- Permanent Waves
The other albums don't compare to these two.

Moving Pictures (best)
Permanent Waves
Power Windows
Signals
Grace Under Pressure
Hold Your Fire
Presto (worst)
IMHO, of course.

Moving Pictures for me.
This album is one of the most various and original from Rush

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..
