Originally posted by Planet Rock Band to rework 2002 album Alex Lifeson has revealed that Rush are to remix their 2002 album, Vapor Trails, as none of the band are particularly happy with the way that it sounds. Classic Rock Magazine spoke to Alex, who said "We were never happy with the production. Perhaps we should have taken more time over the record. But now we've got the chance to improve things. There will be no re-recording, just a remix." No word on any timescale for the new version, but it will be competing with a pretty full plate for the remainder of the year. The band will be on tour for much of the year until the Autumn when they will set about recording their brand new studio album, Clockwork Angels, which will hopefully be released in 2012. They hit the road in the UK in May with dates up and down the country which will see them play their Moving Pictures album in full at each show

Finally!  

Dude you have 999 posts, that EVIL! You have to stop posting now and keep it like that FOREVER.

Moving Pictures will be released on April 4th according to Power Windows(5.1 remastered!!!!!)

I would buy some of the CDs of the albums I really love. I don't actually own them on CD. Only as mp3 or vinyl.

30th ANNIVERSARY DELUXE EDITION of MOVING PICTURES

features audiophile surround sound mix, music videos, rare photos, liner notes & more -- available April 5th

Rush's Moving Pictures celebrates its 30th anniversary this year with a spectacular Moving Pictures - Deluxe Edition via Mercury/UMe. The reissue of this seminal album on April 5, 2011, will be available in two formats: (1) a digitally remastered CD plus DVD and (2) a digitally remastered CD plus Blu-ray. For this Deluxe Edition, the DVD & Blu-ray discs will feature the album and three bonus music videos, "Tom Sawyer," "Limelight" and the previously unreleased clip "Vital Signs," in both a stunning 5.1 surround sound mix supervised by the band’s Alex Lifeson using the original multi-tracks and in newly remastered stereo from the original analog master tapes. 

Both DVD & Blu-ray formats will boast the 5.1 surround sound and stereo audio in 96kHz/24-bit high-resolution audiophile playback which offers 256 times more resolution than CD audio, providing the listener with the closest experience you can have to what the artists hear in the studio.  The DVD is playable on both DVD-Audio and DVD-Video players, the latter players will include Dolby Digital 5.1 surround sound and PCM stereo playback. Blu-ray discs will also feature DTS-HD Master Audio 5.1 surround sound in addition to 96kHz/24-bit PCM 5.1 surround sound and stereo. 

The Moving Pictures experience has never sounded better or been more moving. Also included in the package is an extensive gallery with previously unreleased photos from the original recording sessions, new liner notes by renowned music journalist David Fricke and 30th anniversary artwork by original album designer Hugh Syme. 

At quadruple platinum in the U.S., Moving Pictures was the band's eighth studio album and remains its biggest selling release to date, highlighted by the group’s best-known track, "Tom Sawyer," as well as the hit "Limelight," radio favorite "Red Barchetta" and Grammy®-nominated instrumental "YYZ." Rush continues to garner new fans through new recordings and touring, and are a mainstay at Mainstream Rock radio. Last year, Rush had 100 different tracks get radio airplay, one of only 6 rock artists--including AC/DC, Metallica, Aerosmith, Pink Floyd, and The Rolling Stones—to have that deep a catalog. They also are one of only 16 artists to have remained in the top 40 in radio airplay for the last 10 years at Mainstream Rock. As singer-bassist-keyboardist Geddy Lee, lead guitarist Lifeson and drummer Neil Peart record their 20th studio album "Clockwork Angels" and continue their "Time Machine" tour in America and Europe this year--during which they will perform the entire album--Rush continues to stay true to the spirit that made Moving Pictures a classic.

Just picked up the blu-ray 5.1 version yesterday (only available at Best Buy until May 3, I think).

Anyway - the videos are taken of the band during the making of Moving Pictures - mostly in the studio with a few concert clips as well (one of them is of Geddy playing double neck rhythm guitar during Limelight).

Sounds wonderful.
