SIGNALS

I gave it one star only. This album was the begining of the end of RUSH. I like the expression "Dark" when used to describe this album. Yes, I too believe dark should be used as in "sleep". this Record will put you to sleep where almost all the prior records will energize you and keep you FROM sleeping..............Funny, not much has been heard from Rush since this disappointment. This is a very sad thing for one that is the biggest Rush fan.

All this came back to me as my now 10 year old is learning guitar and of course Rush songs..........pre Signals Rush songs. Without any outside influence (as He was not even around in the early 80s, Nor did I speak to him about the subject) He seems content to skip over the Signals recordings on his "Best of" CD. Upon questioning why......He responds, "I don't know, I just don't like that/those song(s)".

Sorry folks, jumping up and saying this album was anything less than a dissapointment would be a lie. All the previous Reviews seem to acknowledge this fact as well, one simply needs to read between the lines of seemingly glowing reviews.
