Permanent Waves, 2112, and Hemispheres. Although some of my favorite songs are on other albums, those are my favorite whole albums.

Grace Under Pressure isn't that great but it's the first Rush album I ever heard while stoned. I was in 8th grade.

Nah. Hemispheres is a lot better. 2112 has one really good song, and that's 2112.

I caved.  I agree that Permanent Waves (listened last night) is better than Grace Under Pressure.  I changed my vote.

I saw Rush open for Bad Company in 1976.  I've been a fan ever since.  Geddy Lee said "we're goning to play side one of our new album" and I've loved 2112 from that Wed April 7, 1976 at the Civic Arena in Pittsburgh.

Forward ahead to last month, I don't quite remember the date.  I've seen them about a dozen times since then.  It's outdoors and I'm really focusing on the libertarian nature of the lyrics for some reason.  I see three government blue light thugs looking for a reason to justify their existence at this event.  If the event is peaceful as it is tonight, there is simply no need for them and their "services".  They really seem to be shopping around for a customer who has absolutely no interest or need for the "product" they have to offer.  Of course they ignore concertgoers drinking the overpriced beer and wine and manhandle two people doing nothing but smoking reefer.  Who was harmed?  I have no interest in going back to that facility.  It's been years since I've been there and I doubt I'll be back if that's how they treat their customers.  Quite frankly, the facility outside Pittsburgh offers quite poor customer service overall and is extremely expensive.  I almost did not buy tickets at the gate because terms changed on the day of show and coupons were not honored and again I'll go to Blossom Music Center outside Akron which is a beautiful, wonderful sounding amphitheatre which Janis Joplin opened.

Nonetheless, Rush is a great progressive rock band that comes from a libertarian slant.  If you've read Ayn Rand, You may like Rush

I probably have it in a closet somewhere.  They used to be online, too.

He used to work for Apple in Panama before the whole capturing of Noriega by the US thing. He had some interesting treasures in his basement. Lisa stuff, prototype Mac 128k boards, a library of Apple tech documentation, one of Ford's old mainframes. Sadly, it all got ruined in a hurricane flood.
