Topic: Rush’s Simple, Straight-Ahead Debut Turns 40

In Not Fade Away, we take a look at the legacy of some of the greatest albums of the past few decades – some iconic, some lesser known – as they celebrate significant anniversaries. Here, we look back at Rush‘s 1974 debut album which turns 40 this month, and will be commemorated with a vinyl reissue via Universal Music in April.

My favourite Rush album is Caress of Steel. Love the older straight-ahead-rock sound. Very Zeppelin.

Good Call!

I used to get lots of stick on Rush forums for being a big CoS fan, but I nagged them round to my point of view smile

Hopefully Mrs Slikk is getting me this for my birthday...
