Your favourite Rush albums?

@reubent From what I hear, the 40th ann. pressings of "Hemispheres" is inferior to the original. I got the original a few months ago and it sounds simply fantastic.

I can’t take Geddy’s singing from the last...what is it...10, 15 years?...where he’d lost his old vocal dexterity and no longer does the high notes. Even within his lowered vocal range I found his voice to be a hard-to-listen-to strained gargle. Especially the later live performances. Egad! A real bummer and pretty much rules out Rush music of that era for me.

@simao - Thanks. I have an OP of Hemispheres that I'm perfectly happy with. Just trying to decide if I want to invest in the 40th Anniversary edition. Probably not......

I was weened on "2112", however, I think their "S/T" is their best and one of THE best rock debut lps of all time.

"Grace Under Pressure - not everyone’s choice"
Well, it is mine, and an easy one to make ~ they hit their stride here, then fell off the wall...they gradually morphed into something you didn’t see coming, listening to this album ~ and ALL the musicians I knew when I was playing back in the 80s talked about this album, and pretty much it only ~ reverentially.
