Tom Sawyer Pre-Moving Pictures

How Tom Sawyer sounds before it was officially released. Excuse the stills. Audio is from the bootleg Something Old, Something New. I did not record this and take no credit. I am simply showing it.

Yea Ive seen Rush 4 times and never heard a solo like that........damn and is it just me or are the lyrics a little differnt?

[rushringleader]

The lyrics are different. The beginning is switched. The bridge after the solo section is also different.

[DevilsAndAirwaves]

Sounded rough, but you could see where they were going. I like the ripping solo. Maybe I'm biased because I heard the studio version first, but I like it better. But the background music is a little bit different too, and the solo fits better over that.

[PrestonxPunk]

that solo should,ve been on the studio version

@PrestonxPunk ahha, it sounds like Alex hadn't written a solo for it yet, so he just winged one. lol

These pre release pieces are awesome!

It's pretty weird that Peart fails that much on this song. First of all, he couldn't keep the tempo during the whole song and there was a lot of beat mistakes.

[lordmjh]

This did have a lot of qualities,not least of the "newness" of the song and how is changed in the studio.

[Rominucka]

The tempo changes would be unforgivable except for the fact that they all shifted at the same time.

Neil has said that one of the main reasons he still likes to play Tom Sawyer is that it's so difficult and he enjoys trying to get it right.
