2112 is the first album i owned and, kimonos aside, it's my all-time favorite...second would be Caress of steel...I still remember seeing Metallica doing a cover of bastille day in Saskatoon one time...awesome!
2112 was my intro to Rush. Then I bought all their records back from that point: Caress Of Steel; Fly By Night. I didn't get their debut until many decades later (of which I paid $3 for used and cleaned up very nicely sounding killer).
I grew up 90 miles south of the Montreal Forum. Where I saw Rush play several times in the mid to late'70's and it all started with 2112.
I gave up on Rush after MOVING PICTURES.
My favorite Rush album is CARESS OF STEEL. (let's hear it for multi-chapter songs)!
RUSH are still one of my all-time favorite rock bands. Their early music remaining vital after-all-these-years...
RUSH: Beyond the Lighted Stage" Great documentary highly recommended.
Irrespective of it's fine content, I would have to say that a good copy of Moving Pictures with RL Masterdisc stamped in the dead wax will be one of the best sonically of all their albums.
