Sausages
Rush - Archives
I picked up this issue of the first three Rush albums combined into one gate-fold sleeve (officially a ‘box set’) in a chazza in Brum in the 90s, just because it seemed too good to leave there, and it ignited my fascination with the band.
It charts an interesting journey from their rather lumpen Led Zep influenced eponymous debut, on to the second album ‘Fly By Night’ , where new drummer Neil Peart’s playing immediately sets them out as something else completely, through to the third album ‘Caress Of Steel’ where they start to drift towards more proggy waters.
One pound forty nine well spent.
When we got hitched in Vegas, Rush were playing that night. Someone wasn’t having a bar of spending their wedding night watching Rush live. It wasn’t me.
Also, today I found out that at least two Rush songs are inspired by Ayn Rand. Yikes! Like sausages, you don't want to see how Rush songs are made.
