| As good as Permanent Waves and Moving Pictures are, I am one of those peculiar Signals-loving Rush fans. It is probably my second favorite Rush album (after AFTK) and the one I find myself listening to the most. |

Well, I'm a devout Permanent Waves fan myself. Natural Science is pure genius! But if I hadto choose a fave album then it's Caress of Steel, hands down. ------------- My entertainment dollar is burning in my pocket! |

have some clappies.... it probably is my favorite as well. Not their best of course... just the most fun to listen to for me. of the 80's albums..... loved Signals so much... the next albums disappointed me so much.. they lost me.. and have never gone back I guess edit... damn... forgot your clappies..  ------------- The Pedro and Micky Experience - When one no longer requires psychotropics to trip |

Ya know, I actually like that song... But yeah, I agree with your comment.  So anyways, since Moving Pictures got such a high vote.. I might as well go ahead and buy it... since it's one of the few I don't have yet.  ------------- My entertainment dollar is burning in my pocket! |

| Has to be Signals. Hard to explain why, I just happen to like it more. But none of them are bad (although Permanent Waves and Presto tend to bore me). |

Presto, easily. I have always loved the songs, Alex's guitar work, Geddy's singing and the overall production on this album. Second, probably Power Windows. (My fave Rush album for a short while) Can't choose a third, too close to call. |
