That's a kick ass cover. they say Caress Of Steel was their least successful album..i think it was their best..BTW I have an 82 Rickenbacker that sounds frigging great..and I'm from Canada
Léo Skinner yes I most definitely agree with Mr Oliver..... This truly is a wonderful interpretation of the song, which for some reason, I have always thought it must be challenging to justice to the entire composition in a live presentation...... You achieve this with aplomb....... You should be justifiably proud.......... Keep rocking , my gifted friend !!!
That's so cool how there is a Rush Festival in Brazil. It's also fascinating that you guys managed to play side 2 of Caress of Steel. P.S: Keep up the outstanding work!
"Brooding in the tower...watching o'er his lands....holding every creature.....helplessly they stand...gaze into his prisms....knowing they are near...leads them to the dungeons.....specters never fear they bow defeated..."
Caress of Steel at the time wasn't marketable and it became a forgotten relic to be cast aside. Fast forward about 2 decades and it's been transformed into a rare collectable bottle of fine wine to be cherished. I learned of Rush on All the Worlds a Stage so when I got around to Caress I was already sold. Great bit of songwriting. Hard to think why it wasn't well received. The Necromancer on side a is in my humble opinion probably the heaviest most metal song Rush has ever done. It was also the first foray in doing a concept piece. By-Tor was conceptual but not in the extended sense. To me Caress is like the lyric's on lamneth-"draw another goblet from the cask of 43....Crimson misty memories....hazy glimpse of me......a give me back my wonder....I've something more to give....I guess it doesn't matter.....there's not much more to not much more to live..."
The problem with the Fountain suite is its very heavily metaphorical...possibly the most Neil ever put to a series of songs...and a casual listener won't understand what its supposed to be about. 2112 on the other hand is more self explanatory and easier to get . Also more hard rock & driving whereas FOL is very acoustic guitar based and midtempo
Oi Leo, gostei do som. Como fã do Rush desde o primeiro album até o ultimo, nunca entendi porque criticam tanto esse. É um dos que mais gosto e que mais me influenciou. Houve um tempo em que cheguei a tocar ela inteira. Obrigado por postar e a você e à moçada pelo bom gosto.
Nexus Replicant Muito obrigado pelo feedback ! Foi realmente muito emocionante poder tocar esse album na íntegra, especialmente essa música, tão emocionante que iremos repetir a dose hahah. Também não entendo o porque das criticas, provavelmente na época era um som muito a frente de seu tempo...
magicsinglez Yeah man ! Here in Brazil we have a lot of devoted Rush Fans ! And they know every period of the lyrics, even better than I know ! hahahha
Rush...not an easy band to cover...and not just the vocals....everything...awesome drummer! What's up with the guitar player? Nice attempt at Geddy's insaine vocals...No One At The Bridge is my favorite from COS...Baccheus Platue too. Whole song...side two of Caress...very impressive...I used to be able to sing that shit but not so much anymore...
No One At The Bridge has arguably some of Geddy's highest & hardest vocals he ever performed. He probably couldn't match that performance only 3 or 4 years later
The balls to cover this song live at the first place. Mad respect to you and your band mates

"I Think I'm Going Bald" dedicated to Kim Mitchell of Max Webster, Take off Eh!

Beautiful, Ballsy, Bravo! Amazing you could find three guys that good and willing to play that piece.
love these guys
They did Diadects and Narpets. This section is so fucking hard with the time

There Really Is A Lot Of Devoted Rush Fans. Have Any Of You Guys Seen Rush In Rio? Oh Man!
Amazing
Draw another goblet, from the cask of 43!
Wow, they surprisingly have a great drummer.
I was kinda worried before. But it turns out that i was wrong.
Anyway, great cover
That was nicely performed, good job :)

Sensacional!

Alex's lead just smokes on The Necromancer.
lol, is the audience singing along?

Spectacular!!!
Ballsy. I like it. That's probably Geddy's toughest vocal; that Syrinx or Hemispheres. Good job!
quoted lyrics from Bacchus Plateau
At least you still have yours Simon.
Fantástico
well done by the way
very nice!
