Rush has some great instrumentals, I never get sick of YYZ, La Villa Strangiato has some of Lifeson's best guitaring. Limbo is one of my favorite Rush songs I love the sounds that are incorporated into the song.

"La Villa Strangiato" is really fun, in addition, to being a live hightlight.

Peace & take care

If ever there was a two horse race.

YYZ just, they all show off a bit better than on La Villa Strangiato.

Check out some Permanent Waves -era boots. Compare to "The Rhythm Method" and then the solo on Rush In Rio. "All the same?" If you were talking about Carl Palmer, I'd understand.

I like YYZ, the Rush in Rio version, with the crowd singing the lines, blows all instrumentals of any band away.

Studio version only, I would say La Villa strangiato.

I can't believe how unpopular "leave that thing alone" and "Limbo" are. I listen to those all the time.

Doesn't mean they are 'unpopular'.La Villa and YYZ are monsters that's all.

La Villa Strangiato for me. A faultless song in my opinion. Total genius.
