5 stars Great Album,! Not my favorite, but I do consider it to be a masterpiece in it's own right! It starts off with Tom Sawyer 8.5/10, one of their most popular songs. While it isn't the best song on the album, it is a great start! Next up is Red Barchetta 9.5/10! One of the best on the album in my opinion! It just draws you in and leaves you wanting more...Which you get with YYZ 10/10! A great instrumental! Second only to La Villa Strangiato in my opinion. It sounds even better live though! Next up is Limelight 8.5/10, another single off the album. Lifeson's Guitar work is awesome on this song, and it is definately a fan favorite live! After that you have The Camera Eye 9/10, one of my favorites . It's a 11 minute mini-epic about the contrasts of New York and London. Next up on this album is Witch Hunt 9/10, part of their "fear saga". This song is great! I was happy to see it in their snake and arrows set tour set list! Finally you have Vital Signs 9/10 to end it very strongly.

If you are new to Rush you should probally start here. It includes everything we love about Rush with great balance. Alex's creative guitar work, Geddy's greast basslines, and Neil's Perfect drumming, Also they don't go too heavy on the synthesizers like they do on later 80's albums (which I personally don't mind too much.).

Overall a definate 5 star album.
