So I'm going through Rush's entire discography in chronological order at work. "Entire" meaning everything I own. It's not everything, but it is 17 albums worth. What I've listed to so far:
Thank god for 2112, which apparently would have ended Rush as a band if it did not succeed. I used to be meh on it but have come to really appreciate it. Farewell is still kinda meh for me, which is to say it's Rush so it's really good but just not on the level of some other stuff. Hemispheres has been a favorite of mine since I found it around 20 years ago.
