Well I think the Rush albums are not expensive, they run US23.00 to US35.00 from the RushBackstage website, plus S&H. The record stores are selling them for about US30.00....Also Sam I do see that Caress of Steel and PW are both available on the Rushbackstage website....For sure your S&H will be more but I really believe once these are all gone there will be no second pressings.

I did see all of them at one of the stores in Barcelona, I think they were running about €25-€30.

^^ These Rush new vinyl reissues are a bit expensive, but totally worth it. Unfortunately I missed the albums between Caress of Steel and Permanent Waves and they all vanished.

This month's (mostly Italian) vinyl order, still waiting for some confirmations:
Astral Son - Silver Moon
Calibro 35 - S.P.A.C.E (Did you hear about this new album Gary? Smile

)
Quella Vecchia Locanda - s/t
PFM - Storia di un Minuto
Maxophone - s/t
Il Tempio Delle Clessidre - s/t

Rush~Presto (never had on vinyl)

Rush~Signals (my original copy is played out)

Had a feeling you'd grab those. :)

I am hoping they "improved" the sound of Presto. The CD version was always a very thin sounding version, it had no beef to it....The joys of digital recording/mastering back in the 90's Dead

.

In a week Counterparts gets released, unlike Presto this CD had oompf, but will be nice to have on vinyl. December we get Power Windows, which I have the original vinyl issue and sounds great but could also use a bit of beef in the low end. And in January we get S&A......

I will tell you one thing that's for sure, SIGNALS is a beautiful recording. The cd pressing converted to analog is a match made in audio heaven. Great tonal balance.
Enjoy those great master releases. Expensive I know, but you are in good company for one who has had to spend extra $$ on music.

Gimmie my headphones now!!! 🎧🤣

^ I did some research after my post. 3 & 3 Quarters was recorded before the band was formed. It was a project by the founder Parker Griggs when his band was called Garbage Composal.

I don't know if it included any other members of Radio Moscow.

Yesterday after Riverside's concert:
Riverside - Love, Fear and the Time Machine (CD)
Lunatic Soul - Walking on a Flashlight Beam (Vinyl)
Lion Shepherd - Hiraeth (CD)

That's good to know since I like both bands.

The other day I listened to 3 & 3 Quarters by Radio Moscow and was surprised that it wasn't like their other albums. It almost had a Punk/Pop sound (I don't know how else to describe it).

The full album is on YouTube so listen to some of it and tell me what you think.
