Found this incredible pic of Alex and Michael. My two biggest influences together during their 1977 UFO/Rush tour.

 

[Cadorman]

That is cool! I just watched the Rush documentary a couple days ago and they were talking about that tour and how the UFO guys were always giving them crap.

WOW-- what a great pic

 

[Mr Grumpy]

They both have 70s and 80s hairstyles going on at the same time - quite an achievement...

 

[jtcnj]

I know my Man Gball loves him some All the World;s a Stage, so here ya go, bro, Man Neil is sick on this tune. The sound is killer on Headphones. What a friggen groove at 1:50+ What a friggen BAND!!!! And oooo Geddy and his best HIGH voice singing. Perfect version of Lakeside Park. And in my own biased opinion, and I might add, Alex's lead at 24:27 is my favorite lead guitar part of any song ever written. When I say Rush, I hear, 24:27+

One of the best live albums ever. As is «Exit... Stage Left» for that matter.

Stunning. Mesmerizing. Epic. Amazing.

I've been listening to this band for 45 years and I still cannot figure out how 3 guys can make such an incredible roar.

Swing auditorium in San Bernardino what a great show

 

[BFT Gibson]

Just listened to Rush- Presto & song Available Light over & over at least prob 5 times in a row..the subtle guitar nips between the singing & then the soaring leads..love that song

Which doc is this?

Not sure of the actual name. It's about the entire Rush phenomenon. It's on Netflix.

I think that's "Behind The Lighted Stage" and it is awesome.
