Nowadays I listen to the 80s period a lot more. It just happened.

The 80s period had really, really great albums.

I've always listened to the 80s Rush more, Permanent Waves - Hold your Fire = gold. Although I wouldn't recommend those albums to all prog fans.

Grace Under Pressure is definitely one of my favourite albums by them. Such intensity.

I always considered them as sort of high quality pop-rock, well certainly stuff from Signals on anyway. That there is not a very high prog quotient (if any) mattered little to me.

The Body Electric + Between The Wheels?
So much awesome! I also love the version of Closer To The Heart that's on Show Of Hands.

Everything is superb except Red Lenses, which I hate. And Rush fans always yell at me for it, but there it is.

Likewise. Although they do still have their moments from time to time. Mission on the S&A tour... mmmm....

I don't hate it, but I agree it's the low point of the album.

... well, I don't love that one either, but it's fun. Kid Gloves... I love that song, although it's not really 'me' . Actually, it took me a very, very long time to warm up to Afterimage.

Distant Early Warning and Enemy Within are two of my most played tracks when I rock out with the bass guitar. Not a single session goes by without playing them.

I listened to my vinyl of Fly By Night the other day and it gave me a whole new appreciation of the album. I need more. I also have "Archives" which includes Rush, Fly By Night (so I have 2 vinyls of that one ) and Caress Of Steel

Oooooh, you're missing out.
I didn't even like Fragile until I heard it on vinyl. Not to mention they're hella cheaper and you can find obscure stuff easier.
