 Topic: Live album shootout, heat 4, 4 popular bands I
Posted: February 24 2018 at 08:21 |
|
First heat now with four quite popular but not "big 6" band. There will be a second one of these, and then a number of themed ones. I made a list of eight bands for these two heats and drew lots about who goes where, so don't complain if you don't find this appropriately balanced, neither do I.
Renaissance vs. Porcupine Tree vs. Rush vs. Marillion now!

I'll be honest, I'm only familiar with the Rush ones, but I really, really like Exit... Stage Left. I probably would have chosen All The World's A Stage over Different Stages (granted, disc 3 of DS really redeems the set), but ESL has some of their best tracks anyways.

oh, I overlooked that Renaissance were on the list; my comment does not extend to them, so my vote goes there

PT, Coma Divine...

Aw.... Renaissance, with Real to Reel a close second. What a pity that fine album does not have a vote, yet.

As beloved as E...SL is, I voted for Different Stages. It's a great live album, loaded with many of the finest Rush songs, and the live version of "Driven" exceeds the studio cut.

Renaissance...from this list. A lovely 'best of' selection. However, I'd have voted for All the World's a Stage too. Every other Rush live album had songs which didn't improve on the studio versions, but that live album did on many tracks.

This one is very difficult between Renaissance and Coma Divine. I really love both albums.
