Sorry I didn't catch this when it was dropped but no matter - great show Hack, Pete and Martin.
I just discovered it as well.
I've totally been down a Sea Of Tranquility rabbit hole recently. Such a great channel with connections to a lot of other great channels. Pardo and Popoff together is the best.
I actually love Power Windows and most of those 80s albums (some more than others). I am a fan of all their phases because the musicianship, exciting song structure and lyrics are still there even if they are keyboard heavy. My one complaint about those albums (Power Windows thru Presto...maybe Roll the Bones too) is the same thing you guys mentioned as well - they are thinly produced with no bottom end, especially Presto. I would love to hear those albums remastered/remixed with a fatter bottom end (without distorting the mix though) because there are some solid songs on those albums (a few stinkers too). I always loved and appreciated their experimentation with different sounds.
Thanks for watching and welcome to the channel. Cheers
Alex said in a guitar magazine interview that they had intended "Show Don't Tell" to sound heavier than the finished product.
Thank you for All " RUSH" Show with Martin Popoff & Pete Pardo. Rest In Peace: Neil Peart🥁 and
Eddie Van Halen.🎸🎵
Thanks for watching. Cheers
My most underrated song in the Rush catalog, "Losing It". Ben Mink does the violin but this one is pure gold. Honorable mention is: "Between the Wheels" from Grace Under Pressure.
Great picks. Cheers
I remember when the R40 tour was in progress everyone was hoping to get a show where they'd plug that into the setlist.
We knew it was going to happen because you could hear them playing it during sound checks before every show.
I’ll pretty much watch any video that features any of you three gentlemen. Love your channel, Hack!
That is very kind. Thank you so much! Cheers
I’ve made this statement on a previous Contrarians Rush video but I think it needs to be stated again, by the early/mid 80’s, Rush had a surprising amount of “artsy”, college radio/underground kids who thought Rush fit within their aesthetic viewpoint. These were the kids who would wear the New Order t shirts or were into bands like Simple Minds, Big Country, Echo and the Bunnyman, etc. Rush had respect then because they too were considered sort of artsy/lyrical and interested in electronics/computerized sounds. These underground music fans of the mid 80’s were outsiders and passionate about music. Many probably didn’t even know about Rush’s heavy rock and heavy prog history. All they knew was that Rush was interesting and not banal. These kids hated the misogynistic/party till you drop vibe of Heavy Metal and burgeoning hair metal and they especially hated the jock rock popular kid music of say Springsteen. Maybe some time, someone will delve into Rush’s forgotten mid 80’s fandom with artsy New Wave kids. This fandom had a brief flirtation with Rush...Signals to Power Windows (but it did not go much further).
Great point.
As far as lyrics go Geddy has said in past interviews that here were occasions where he didn't feel comfortable with what Neil wrote. He said Neil was always flexible and never had a problem re-writing a specific lyric or coming up with something different. The guy's like a walking encyclopedia.
Alex is unique in his utilizing a guitar as a reflection of lyrics: The Spirit of Radio riff that sounds like a permanent radio wave; the wah-wah's solo that reflects "the sound of salesmen"; the eclipse sound in Entre Nous (although that may be predominantly synth) "drifting in our orbits to a brief eclipse"
Interesting show... I first fell in love with Rush after watching them on Din Kirshner’s Rock Concert back in late 1974 when I was 12....
Back then, I had to save in order to buy any albums, so by the time I was able to buy any albums, Rush had quickly released 2 albums in 1975 - Fly By Night and my favorite Caress of Steel - which of course I was able to buy and get my parents to buy the second one as a birthday gift.
After having moved to live in Argentina the following year in 1976 for a few years with my parents, Rush was a pretty obscure band in the USA, let alone completely obscure everywhere else. As I got more and more into music and made friends at record stores down there, a radio DJ just happened to hear about my Rush records and asked if he could play them on the radio.....
The positive response in Argentina was overwhelming, the radio station had the biggest flood of inquiry calls they’ve ever had... soon, Rush received regular radio play with cassette recordings of my records as they were UNreleased in Latin America at this point in time.... soon, the radio stations in southern Brazil and Uruguay picked up on Rush.... and in 1978 I was consulted by the record company (via the DJ) in Buenos Aires as to which Rush record to release in the local market - Farewell to Kings was the debut there and was a major smash!!
The rest is history....True story...
PS. I’ve since moved back to the USA in 1982.
Pete, I too always considered Rush and Kansas to have the most interesting lyrics in rock.
That's an amazing story! Thanks for watching and welcome to the channel. Cheers
Guitar Hack
Thanks! Great hosting!
I was able to meet Geddy and Alex at a hotel where they were staying in Las Vegas during the Power Windows tour in February of 1986, with Steve Morse Band opening.... I had a difficult time telling them the complete story cuz other fans were interrupting me, but I don’t think they believed me as they both had a look of incredulity.... but it’s true!😂
When I told them that I took cassette recordings of my records (which were super hard to get overseas) to the radio station, they asked if I was a bootlegger! 😡
Thanks for the great video !
I think both Signals and Grace Under Pressure are as good as any of their best albums.
Awesome show hack ! Can’t wait to see you back on Pete’s show next week. You rule! Keep up all the great work! Loved your guests: Martin and Pete are great ! Rush is my all time favorite band. So sad about Eddie! Miss him already! Great work hack !
Thanks for watching. Cheers
I used to see RUSH at the Generator on Yonge St, back when there used to be ten or twelve people in the audience. Hard-working dudes who deserved their success. The first Ricky Geddy ever played was my 4001, serial #368. He liked it and bought one for himself.
Very cool Mel. Thanks for watching. Cheers
Man, that’s awesome, Mel! Were they still playing covers back then?
@@crusheverything4449 They were mostly original songs at the Generator. The songs were long and some people didn't like that. I was gigging for years myself so I never actually saw them in concert when they got bigger. But they sounded really good at the Generator.
I must have been 12-13 years old. Some kids were raving about 2112 so I went to library in the centre of my home city of Sheffield and borrowed "Archives". I was hooked, I played "Working Man" again and again. They stayed with me all my life, even thru the 80's. The Greatest.
Thanks for watching and welcome to the channel. Cheers
I have seen them live 4 times here in Sweden, 2004, 2007, 2011 and 2013. The last was best, 'Clockwork Angels' maybe because it was outdoors at Sweden Rock Festival. But i started to listen to them already 1978 when i borrowed 2112 and Carress of Steel from a friend.
Thanks for watching and welcome to the channel. Cheers
Awesome show! I love Rush, and I’ve just started reading «Anthem». Love hearing you guys talk about the best band in the world!
Thanks for watching and welcome to the channel. I just finished Anthem. Great book full of detail. Just got Limelight. Cheers
@@GuitarHack66 Just got Limelight myself. This channel looks very interesting, I’ve already bookmarked several videos and started following. Massive Rush fan though, that’s how I discovered this 😊
Was able to see Rush • Moving Pictures • tour in Washington State!
I was at school and played a friends rock compilation tape and it was Spirit of the radio
I also used to see Rush in the local clubs and schools around Toronto . As Mr. O’Brien mentioned , at the Generator , and more often at the Picadilly Tube at Yonge and Dundas , as well as at Centennial College . Some would even get up and dance at the Tube . Those were the days !
That's very cool. Thanks for watching and welcome to the channel. Cheers
@@GuitarHack66 Thanks !
I first heard Rush in 1974 aged 14 on BBC Radio 1 on the Alan Freeman Saturday Rock Show (at that time the only rock radio show in the UK). He played Finding My Way which blew me away. Problem was the first 4 Rush albums were import only in the UK. All The World's A Stage was the 1st official UK release. Had to save a lot of pocket money to get the first 4 albums!!!
Very cool. Thanks for watching and welcome to the channel. Cheers
I remember the Alan Freeman show,a goldmine-a fucking education- for me being in my early teens in late 80's..first time hearing 'Eruption' 'Burning of the midnight Lamp' Syd era Floyd,Hawkwind,Soft Machine,Cream...magic nights with the headphones on and tape deck cued.
Thanks very much this and for getting Pete and Martin as those guys are great to listen to and learn from. Digital Man's my most underrated song too!
Thanks for watching and welcome to the channel. Cheers
Under rated Rush song.......Middle town dreams - Well every song off Power windows. Killer killer album.
Call me crazy but Caress Of Steel is my favourite Rush album.
Not my favorite, but you're not crazy for having it as yours.
I agree , I don't think the first Rush album sounds like Zep at all.
I'm in the UK and my first encounter with Rush was sometime in 1976/77 with Bastille Day being played on the radio and reading about them in Sounds magazine. First album was All the World's a Stage, first saw them at Southampton Gaumont in 78, having had tickets to see them the year before but got snowed in so couldnt go. Became less interested after Signals but still bought all the albums videos and DVDs and had a near to the front seat at Manchester MEN on 12th Sept 2004 - fantastic. If I had to choose a favourite album it would be A Farewell to Kings with CVaress of Steel, 2112, Hemispheres and Permanent waves all a very close second. In my Top 5 all time favourite bands
Very cool. There will be a top ten show coming soon.
Peart did a record with a band called J.R. Flood.
That was the side long epic on Hemispheres that was written in what Geddy called "a really fucked up key" that very hard to sing in.
I don't know why they didn't just change the key.
I came to this channel from SOT. Intro is far too long. Over a minute and a half of filler. It gets to a point where you just want to click off. But I kept going and it’s a great channel. Good stuff.
Thanks for being patient lol. Cheers
RUSH.................................. RULES
For me Test for Echo would a perfect LP if nt for Dog years. MP and Signals are tho.
Great show
Thanks for watching. Cheers
What do you think about the Rush influenced band YYNOT who already have 2 studio albums of original matetial and they play some Rush covers live?
I'll have to check them out. What era Rush do they seem influenced by?
@@b.g.5869 mostly their 70s material
Tai shan from hold your fire... geddy and Alex are not into this song. Thats the one they dont like/want to play live...
Saw an Interview, they said they still dont get the lyrics 🤣
I discovered rush 2 years ago... beeing a hardcore punk for nearly 30 years... now getting back into thrash tech death and some prog. Beeing a big death Fan... i love every phase rush went through, love hemispheres permanent waves grace under pressure counterparts test for echo vapor trails and clockwork angels a bit more than the rest... unbelievable Band
Thanks for watching and welcome to the channel. Cheers
@37:30 - In all fairness, Circus and Creem magazines always made a bit of fun of every band - especially their ridiculous band photo captions. I remember one of those magazines calling Geddy the buzzard beaked bassist, which I thought was hilarious.
I too lost it with Power Windows , tried again with it recently and still don’t like it . After that the next album I bought was Vapor Trails before going back and purchasing the ones I’d missed. Of course none of them are bad just unremarkable for me personally. If you want to pin me down I’d say the last truely great Rush album is Signals. They were always amazing live and I was honoured to have seen them in the UK towards the end of their remarkable career . Of course I hope Geddy and Alex do something together in the near future under a different name .
I hope so too.
A couple of comments on some of the subjects brought up in this video.
The most underrated song from the 70's and 80's to me is Something For Nothing. After 1990, I think that We Hold On from Snakes and Arrows. The best song after 1990 that a lot of the fans of the old stuff ignore is Dreamline. I think it should have been a bigger hit on more than just Rock radio.
The R40 Tour has mixed feelings for me. They too many of their Radio Hits and too many long songs and instrumentals due to Geddy having to save his voice. I wanted to hear more of the short songs from 2112 and A Farewell to Kings like Something For Nothing and Cinderella Man. Songs that never had been documented on video before. I like a lot of their 80's albums that the three commentators don't seem to like. But, I also like a lot of their old songs except for Cygnus X-1, Part 1. I am a heretic to the old fans for really disliking that song. To me it is the example of them not having enough good ideas for a full album. The only part I like is section/part 2 of it with the regular song with lyrics part of the song. The part they never played live after 1980 ironically. They could have taken that section and expanded into a full 3 to 4 minute song that might have been far superior to the plodding, noodling nonsense that makes up most of the song.
Thanks for watching. Cheers
Good call on both of those underrated songs
I cashed out after Power Windows. After that I still bought each new album and listened to it all but often found it a chore of obligation.
They were always great live though there were time when their setlist was too full of newer stuff to warrant sitting through a whole show just to hear maybe 3 songs I liked.
I think the first 8 albums are all that great and essential but don't think they did anything essential after Moving Pictures. Just way too bland.
I really really hard to like Signals, Grace Under Pressure, and Power Windows and listened to them many times trying to like them but it never really clicked. I eventually liked about half of Signals it was such a huge disappoinment compared to the 8 albums that preceded it.
I think they finished with a comparitively strong album with Clockwork Angels but still don't it was a great album.
The R40 tour was great though.
One thing I noticed about a lot of the songs I'm their later years that didn't do anything for me is precisely that they are lyrically too verbose.
My thing I was such a Kiss fan and this kid up the street was like Kiss sucks, Rush rules. I held my ground. Until this girl, I liked gave me 2112 for my 16th birthday. I wasn't any less of a Kiss fan... but Rush RULES!
A dude I used to gig with, Adam Mitchell, wrote some KISS songs with Ace Frehley.
Agreed Rick. Cheers
Everything up until and including Grace Under Pressure (1973-1984) was amazing and then everything from Counterparts (1993) and onward was really great. I just was never a fan of Power Windows (1985), Hold Your Fire (1987), Presto (1989), and Roll The Bones (1991). That being said, I do like a couple of songs off of each of those albums, but as a whole, the sound of those albums was too thin, cold, and diluted. They definitely came back HARD with Counterparts, which I LOVE.
Agreed
Alex was most 'Jimmy Page' on the Fly by night album,I guess...is Cinderella Man underrated? Open Secrets?
Love Cinderella man. Thanks for watching and welcome to the channel. Cheers
@@GuitarHack66 T'was a pleasure,Hack..More Rush shows needed!
@@smashdalde9713 got one tonight at 8pm esr
@@GuitarHack66 OK,man I'll give it a deek!
I kinda like what you guys do but you take way too long to do it just get to the point. It’s just music and everyone else has a great option just move on please..............
A great option? What would that be? 🤔
