5 stars I do not think you could ask for more.

Tom Sawyer - Brilliant song with the tightest band chemistry one could ask for. Very cool solo and amazing transitions!

Red Barchetta - A classic tune with an awesome solo. Really cool harmonic intro. Extremely good song to drive to!

YYZ - Spectaculor instrumental. Fantasitic intro (the opening cymbal pattern is actually morse code for YYZ). Awesome bass/drum call backs. Excellent guitar progressions and a great ending. On another note "YYZ" is the airport code for Toranto.

Limelight - Tremendously insightful lyrics. Cool intro, melodic chorus, a magnificent solo, and spine chilling ending. Overall a fantastic message for any person listening.

The Camera Eye - This song takes a little bit to warm up, but once it does it is totally worth it. The transition out of the intro is really awesome. Incredibly interesting lyrics. Many awesome riffs within this song.

Witch Hunt - Creepy but very cool intro! Foot-tapping chorus riff. Smooth transitions and changes! Wonderful message lyrically. Part one of a four part series entitled "Fear". Interesting fact about "Fear" is the first three parts were released in reverse order on different albums (meaning part three came out first, then part two, and then part three). The forth part of "Fear" was released on Rush's latest album "Vapor Trails". Check bottom of review to find all four albums the four parts of Fear can be located on.

Vital Signs - Terrific and interesting intro. Good beat and singing in verses. Great pre- chorus. Rockin' chorus. Awesome drum fills to shift the song from pre-chorus to chorus. Again, very interesting lyrics.

Moving Pictures is essential for every Rush fan and is essential for every prog rock fan. If you buy it you will more than likely not be dissapointed. Check this out and rock out to it for years to come.

"Fear" Part III - Released on moving pictures Part II - Released on Signals Part I - Released on Grace Under Pressure Part IV - Released on Vapor Trails
