All the elements of the album version are here, but I think Alex's guitar overpowers Geddy's vocals on this one. That said, these demos are great fun to listen to!
Power Windows is my favorite Rush album. I'm a bass player and LOVE the tight, punchy Wal bass sound. I got Geddy's Wal bass and holy hell, prize of my collection!

Guitar work, the solo part and the guitar/synth thereafter - OMG

PW is my all-time favorite album from ANY band let alone RUSH and Marathon is my favorite song ever!!!
Agree, just heard these tapes. That gtr part as a producer, would have stayed.
Agreed, same solo as album version but extending that riff into Ged's vox
YT servers are running hotter than normal right now, thanks to Alex.
alex plays the hell out of this!
this is .....SOOOOO AMAZING
@stratovani Hey, come on, it was the middle of the 80's, cut him some slack. EPIC guitar player! ;)
Wow, Alex, a little heavy on the chorus and flange, don't you think?!
you can still make out notes he's playing, not heavy enough 😤

Keep as a treasure, as a cloth in gold
