Rush Guitar Cover Afterimage Grace Under Pressure

From the 1984 album Grace Under Pressure, Afterimage is a powerful song expressing the impressions made by a person on another, and the emotional bond that remains when those two people cease to be part of the same physical space. The mid-section is truly fantastic to play, with the beautiful guitar swells and the haunting chord strikes, driven along by the drums and bass, almost like a heartbeat.

Great job!

I notice all your videos have excellent sound quality. What kind of video camera do you use?

[snowdoguk]

@gibsonplayer8 The camera is a sony handycam but I don't record using that anymore (earlier vids were done by recording from the Line 6 POD XT Live directly into the camera) but now I record the video with the cam, but record the audio via a digidesign mbox2 to the PC using ProTools. Thanks for stopping by to watch and listen :)

My little boy is 4. He, for whatever reason, loves Afterimage by Rush. So, when he asks me to play it, I go to YouTube and he insists I play this clip of the song. No joke. Keep on rockin'.

[snowdoguk]

What a cool story :) Are you sure it's not the Bobbleheads he likes to watch? Thanks very much for sharing that.. Best Wishes to you..

So well done! why can't all guitar vids be this clear?

I really enjoy the Years of Rush that you cover. Thanks

I like the audio clip at the end, from ATWAS, right? As for buying this album, I have the CD, and more importantly, I have it on vinyl, bought it new in 1984, the year I saw my first Rush show! Still have the concert program, too. Such a great song from such a great album, best sound of the 80s. And a great job you've done on the guitar, man, top notch.

Love it!!! One of my favourites. I wanted to learn this one so badly many years ago but didn't have the skills. Now I have the skills and found this....and now I can play it...after 10 minutes!!!! Thanks so much dude. Excellent playing and sound. Cheers.

Wow, everytime I watch this video, I feel I have to turn around and start playing my keyboards with you and I do. Great guitar player with all the feel of a true musician. Rock on my friend, rock on....
