Maybe it was your Vapor trails that got crossed!

OK - I hope your sitting down - I agree with your Presto choice! Side 2 is very substandard for them. Side 1 however, has great stuff - that's why a bad Rush album is still a good album. The Pass and Scars are very good songs.

Roll The Bones is my least favorite. Again, side 1 has some killer stuff - Face Up, Where's My Thing, Dreamline, the title cut. Neurotica's good on side 2. It's Bravado, Heresy, The Big Wheel, You Bet Your Life - just awful!!!

Vapor Trails just beats out Hold Your Fire for my 3rd least favorite. We've discussed this ad nauseum in other posts. I've been a Rush fan since the 70's - I just don't like it.

I really like Caress of Steel. It was released as I was becoming aware of rock music, and it kicks ass. Lakeside Park is one of their best songs. 99% of musicians wish they could put out such "rubbish". You mean, you don't like Dicdats & Narpets?

I realize that no Peart = No Good (nice one) - however, he hadn't joined the band then. With the exception of Here Again, blistering tunes. And such great jamming!

OK, lets hear some more opinions!
