The Age Of Wonders - Rush - June 25th, 1975

This is the other show from the "Fly By Night Tour" I was writing about in my review of "Bad Boys In Cleveland". It's an audience recording that includes the track "You Can't Fight It" that was a single released on Moon Records in 1973. The quality can't compare with "Bad Boys In Cleveland",but it's still an amazing audience recording for 1975. I would get this for "You Can't Fight It" but not for a better sounding show than "Bad Boys In Cleveland". Good instrument sound, very little tape hiss, and an over-all good show. 7/10.

Canadian Bacon Platinum Edition - Rush - December 10th, 1977

This is a first gen audience recording from the "A Farewell To Kings Tour". Debated to be the best of the tour, and the people who say that have reason to believe that. This show sounds great, no tape his, instruments are all clear. There is a bit of distance however, and there is one guy who keeps setting off little firecrackers. I want to find where this guy lives and punch him. It's also missing "Cinderella Man" witch makes me sad. Aside from that this show is great. You should get this show. I can't really say it's better than "The Art Of Sound" but it's a great show and you should still get it. 8/10

The Art Of Sound - Rush - November 12th, 1977

This is a show from the "A Farewell To Kings Tour". This is one of the better shows from the tour. It's an audience recording, but don'r let that fool you. It's very good sounding, small little bit of tape his, clear instruments and vocals. Over all good. There isn't too much to say about this show, it's really good and you should get it. "A Farewell To Kings" has some great songs on it like "Xanadu", "A Farewell To Kings" and "Cygnus X-1".That alone, make this show worth getting. 8/10.

Sign Of Eth - Rush - June 2nd, 1977

This is an audience recording from the "All The Worlds A Stage Tour". It is very different from "By-Tor's Battle V2.02" This show has a different setlist, with out some songs and with others. This show has the pre-release version of "Xanadu" as well as "The Necromancer" and is missing songs like "Anthem" and "Bastille Day". The show sounds good, nothing really to complain about. 7/10 get this show for "Xanadu" or you could get the other version of this show with a bit of a different sound. I recommend both. Good shows, get them.
Track Listing: 
Lakeside Park
2112 Overture (I got this show off of a torrent, so I didn't edit all these parts together, sorry)
2112 Temples Of Syrinx

2112 Soliloquy
2112 Grand Finale

By-Tor's Battle V2.01 - Rush - October 25th, 1976

This is a soundboard from the "All The Worlds A Stage Tour" I've got quite a few of these, so expect them soon, but maybe not in order like what I've been doing. This show is nothing special. The Version 2.01 is a lot better being a lower gen source than the original. Less tape his, complete show, better instrument quality etc. As well as the drum and guitar jam before "In The End". The instruments are all good, tape hiss isn't too bad (Forgot to mention, I download this and didn't edit it myself, so "The Rhythm Method" is coupled with "Working Man" and "Finding My Way"). Over-all, it's just a good show. Nothing amazing, just a good show. 7/10 you should get this show because it's good. The end.

We Are The Priests - Rush - May 30th, 1976

This is my only show from the "2112 Tour" a lot of people out there confuse the "2112 Tour" with the "All The Worlds A Stage Tour". For a show this early, it's not that bad. It is a soundboard recording. But the audio is "shaky" and has some tape hiss. Another thing about this show, it has almost NO audience noise what-so-ever (Aside from a few screams that can be heard from time to time). Some people might like that, but for me, it's a turn off. Geddy sounds good, the guitar is great, drums are nice and smooth feeling. Bass can be heard but to me sound kind-of blended in to the mix rather than being separated more from the rest of the audio. 6.5/10 audio, would be higher if not for the tape hiss and other pet peeves. Pick it up, it's a good show and worth your time.
