Rush – Moving Pictures: 40th Anniversary

Limited white colored vinyl. Moving Pictures, Rush's eighth studio album, was originally released on February 12, 1981, and it's adventurous yet accessible music catapulted the forward-thinking Canadian band to even newer heights as it began navigating the demands of a new decade. The album's seven songs expertly blended Rush's intrinsic prowess for channeling it's progressive roots into radio-friendly arrangements, a template the band had mastered to a T all throughout it's previous album, 1980's deservedly lauded Permanent Waves. Moving Pictures was also the second of many Rush recording sessions at Le Studio in Morin-Heights, Quebec, which was ultimately nicknamed the trio's own personal Abbey Road recording studio.
