voted against Moving Pictures chiefly because YYZ is a really dire song and everyone extols it as one of Rush's finest moments.

Moving Pictures is my least favorite. This album just doesn't have the pizazz the other ones have.

I'm one of those who love YYZ....and while MP is in my top 5 it isn't #1 (in fact its #4)...so not long before I start voting for it to go...

I'm not going to interfere. Choosing between Moving Pictures, Counterparts and Signals results in a vote for the latter. Not that it's bad, but I like it least of the three.

counterparts. great album, but once this is done, its hair pulling time. at least for me. what remains is the top Rush albums most important to own. imo.

LOL I selected it, and then typed the message without pressing "Cast my vote". In order to not having to write the text again, I first posted and then voted. Boy, you're quick - there was probably 12 seconds between the two actions....
