@JNJChaos yeah that's the same way i feel about it...definitely gives off an eerie/mysterious vibe, but still manages to rock hard...Rush is amazing...
Man I started to stray away from Rush for a while, in favor of more technical prog. I got sort of reintroduced by a friend. I can't believe I was able to overlook Alex Lifeson for so long, listening back his style really influenced so many other great guitar players. Easily my favorite of the 70's-80's era, and to me one of the only guitarists great enough from the era to compete with my favorite guitarists of the 90's and 2000's. What a legend.
One of my faves from the album of the same name if not my absolute favorite. Hard to say cause i also love Totem, Color Of Right, Driven, Limbo .... :-)) Hell the whole thing! Great sounding album!
@vinnykster good call this is a T4E is an OUTSTANDING record. Resist, Virtuality... I think The Color of Right was my favorite from that album. But, yeah, the whole thing is good. I thought Geddy Lee's solo album in 2000 had quite a Test for Echo flavor, too.

fabulous song :) but wasent this the year neils wife and daughter died and he went on a big moterbike ride or something, how could he play this gig at the same time ? :/
Rush comes in with a strong but captivating guitar riff comes the drum beat which hooks you in, then comes the bass line witch crushes you with its massive sound. yep thats a Rush song for you!
This is one thing I like about the band. There are only 3 band members, but they produce a lot of great sounds. Especially this song. I love the opening guitar sound.
The only thing I can say thats bad is that most booters with cameras only pay attention to Geddy. I hardly ever see them looking at Alex or Neil. And the people walking in front of the cameras suck too. Too bad they don't have film crews at every stop.. There would be soo many boots out there
I have a RUSH mini-contest going on. The first person who can tell me the meter and the approximate tempo of the introduction of 2112 gets a $5 money order, canadian or the equivalent in Euros. Reply and I'll check the email.
That's right~ first person who can tell me what meter they go by and what the approximate tempo is.
This performance is excellent for several reasons; one, the instrumentation is germane for this style/compsition . two, the tempo is just right as is the mix/amplification. Everything's perfectly audible; bass g. , kick, snare, hi hat, etc... and the guitar isn't just overwhelming. THIS is good, this is how IT SHOULD be played, not just then but always..
if i droppped, but i didn;t , don't plame valerie, reesa. sense-o-clock- wet paper, some clean window, touch and go. wow. fllored. most visionaries, um, trill.
Wow! Fan since 1977.

Rushを初めて聴いたのはこの曲。信じられないくらいカッコよかった。しかもそのころはGeddy Leeが歌いながらこんなベースを弾いてるなんて知らなかったので大学生になってそれを知った時は本当に驚いたのを今でも覚えている。
