Rush has like 3-4 "phases". My fave is the Seventies Rush. "2112" is the big record from that era (for me) but basically anything they did between '74-'82 is their 'Golden Era".

After that they got into keyboards in the '80's/'90's. Then they dropped out for almost a decade while drummer Neil Peart dealt with the death of his wife and daughter (I think - lost touch with Rush around this time). Now they are back and still rocking it.

Fuck man, just crank 'Limelight', "Tom Sawyer' and "The Necromancer" (or "Xanadu") and you'll get it. :D
