Signals for me.

2112 is a close second.

Cue the Rush haters in three, two, one …

Andrew May101 Sep 2011 8:50 a.m. PST

None of them…

Beowulf Fezian01 Sep 2011 8:55 a.m. PST

Permanent Waves is outstanding. I liked all albums, almost every single song until Power Windows.

Well !

How about some topics on gaming !!

Re RUSH – None !

John the OFM01 Sep 2011 9:02 a.m. PST

Until I learned that they were on John Miller's "Top 50 Conservative Rock Songs of All Time" ("…as determined by me …", gotta love that Randian approach!) list, I did not really like Rush.

Now that I understand why I should love them, I instead merely tolerate them. ANNOYING voice.

I quite agree. We should hang all those SOBs who start Poll Suggestions on non-gaming topics.

TMP Polls should be limited to "Favorite Vallejo Paint for Goblin vomit" or "Favorite alloy compisition for brass rods used in pinning LOTR cave trolls".

Garand01 Sep 2011 9:26 a.m. PST

Not a Rush fan.

Damon.

pphalen01 Sep 2011 9:47 a.m. PST

As an album, I'd have to say Hemispheres or Permanent waves, although more of my favorite songs come off of Farewell to Kings (Xanadu and Closer to the Heart) and Rush (Finding my Way, Working Man)

Neal Peart, who rights the bands lyrics, is much more of a liberal (really libertarian) than conservative. Interesting list anyway, that can take a song about a guy trying to get into a girl's pants and tries to paint it as a song promoting conservative values…

John the OFM01 Sep 2011 9:53 a.m. PST

The fact that he did not succeed makes it conservative. grin

Permanent Waves. I can't wait for the Time Machine tour album and DVD which comes out in November!

the trojan bunny01 Sep 2011 10:12 a.m. PST

It's a tie between 2112 and moving Pictures for me. I was supposed to see them on the recent tour (where they played all of Moving Pictures) but ended up in hospital and had to miss it. :(

Evil Bobs Miniature Painting01 Sep 2011 10:32 a.m. PST

Tough one. Probably a toss-up between Vapor Trails and Farewell to Kings.

Titchmonster01 Sep 2011 10:51 a.m. PST

Moving Pictures or Signals' both are iconic of the era. One of the best live bands ever.

SECURITY MINISTER CRITTER01 Sep 2011 10:52 a.m. PST

No real favorite.

SECURITY MINISTER CRITTER01 Sep 2011 10:54 a.m. PST

But wasn't it 20thmaine who started these music polls? grin
beer

Zyphyr01 Sep 2011 11:40 a.m. PST

My favorite varies according to my mood.

leidang01 Sep 2011 12:42 p.m. PST

Permanent Waves here as well….

Irish Marine01 Sep 2011 12:56 p.m. PST

Well it's hard to say since they are the Gods of Rock and Roll, but I would have to say the one I have been playing a lot of lately is FareWell To Kings.

Space Monkey01 Sep 2011 2:58 p.m. PST

Nope, never liked them… but heard lots of them while amongst friends… even went to a concert. Just never clicked.

Historicalgamer01 Sep 2011 3:07 p.m. PST

Farewell to Kings for me.

Personal logo 20thmaine Supporting Member of TMP01 Sep 2011 3:14 p.m. PST

Signals

MDIvancic01 Sep 2011 5:00 p.m. PST

I love them all, but if forced to chose one I would be Permanent Waves or 2112. Coin toss.

ming3101 Sep 2011 5:29 p.m. PST

2112 The opening sequence is gold.

Mike at Work 201 Sep 2011 5:40 p.m. PST

2112 or Moving Pictures

Fonthill Hoser01 Sep 2011 6:51 p.m. PST

Farewell to Kings.

I love the Hackett-meets-Howe riff in Xanadu.

53Punisher01 Sep 2011 7:48 p.m. PST

2112 then Fly By Night

Captain Clegg02 Sep 2011 4:17 a.m. PST

2112 for me

uruk hai02 Sep 2011 5:37 a.m. PST

Where would you begin? An amazing body of work from three of the best musicians. Love the live albums.

slugbalancer02 Sep 2011 5:52 a.m. PST

FareWell To Kings.

Wolverine02 Sep 2011 10:08 a.m. PST

Chronicles.

charles popp04 Jun 2012 2:34 p.m. PST
