About this Artist

Editorial Reviews

Though the band has since released four more albums on Atlantic Records, this double-disc set was the original, definitive Rush anthology, spanning the band's entire 15-year, 16-album relationship with Mercury Records. In fact, this set is virtually perfect, clearly illustrating the Canadian power trio's evolution from Cream/Zeppelin enthusiasts into a groundbreaking, progressive hard rock unit. Acclaimed classics like "Finding My Way," "Fly by Night," "A Passage to Bangkok," "Closer to the Heart," "The Spirit of Radio," and "Tom Sawyer" are interspersed with less-well-known, but equally vital tracks like "Bastille Day," "La Villa Strangiato," "Limelight," "Subdivisions," and "Red Sector A" to paint a literal moving picture (pun intended) of the band's career. As a testament to its excellence, Mercury was incapable of improving upon this package when releasing the nearly identical Retrospective six years later on two separate CDs.

Why not the Hall of Fame.by Anonymous

July 14, 2001: I have followed the path of ''Rush'' since the beginning and feel that it is NOT COOL that they were not inducted in the Hall of Fame. This is a miscarriage of R and R justice. I think that if any group should be there it definately should be Rush.

Excellent, but...by Anonymous

November 02, 2000: I can't really fault the track listing on this one - all of the signature songs which you'd hear on the radio (and some you wouldn't) are here. But listeners wishing to seriously get into Rush will want to have the real albums anyhow. A considerable number of great songs are not included, such as 'Xanadu', 'Jacob's Ladder', 'YYZ', and 'The Analog Kid'. This compilation is good for casual fans or those wanting to get a brief overview of what Rush is like.
