Yeah, it's not bad, and at least it isn't Moving Pictures (/snipe). Couple of tracks which I think are a little weaker than the others, but the highs are really good for a Rush album (/snipe).

The Spirit Of Radio and Natural Science are the obvious ones for me, I think. Jacob's Ladder and Different Strings are also quite likeable for some odd reason. I gave it four stars.

Good man. That one is likely a runner for my favorite album of all time.

I tell you what I like about having 4 stars next to my name..before I gave Electric castle its 2 stars (I hate giving only 1 to anything, as its such an insult to the musicians, but Ayreon came in at 1.5 and I rounded it up...Embarrassed) it had a rating of 4.14 on this site.....ShockedShocked
 
after I'd finished, it had dropped to 3.88....Approve

And... time for a treat.



I think my most controversial view is that Genesis are better than Rush, Magma and Koenji Hyakkei.

I don't think here in PA-land that view is all the controversial, myself.  I don't agree with it but you'd be sure to find plenty here who do.

You don't need to have them all.......not everything is great!

If you have IN ROCK, MACHINE HEAD, MADE IN JAPAN you are covered......some like BURN or FIREBALL.




I like PERFECT STRANGERS a lot......................and BANANASLOL


Only those!!?!?! I say you must have from Shades, everything onwards up to Come Taste the Band, plus King Biscuit Flower Hour live CD. Then get Slaves & Masters, Battle Rages On, Purpendicular and Bananas!

I'm not serious fan! Just a fan of Deep Purple as you are from Rush
