Drummer John Rutsey's no-nonsense playing and Geddy Lee's raw, unfiltered vocals give this debut a street-level energy that the band's later, more elaborate work never quite revisited. It's a fascinating document of a band still figuring out who they were, right before everything changed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe Debut That Launched a Five-Decade-Plus Career and Turned Rush into International Icons: Band's Eponymous Album Includes 'Working Man' and 'Finding My Way'Hear the Trio's 1974 Record in Definitive Sound: Mobile Fidelity's Numbered-Edition 180g 45RPM 2LP Set Plays with Stunning Presence, Detail, and DefinitionRush's eponymous debut remains unique for being the only entry in the trio's extensive catalog that doesn't feature it's renowned drummer and lyricist, Neil Peart. That distinction informs the foundational content and independent-minded account of Rush - whose straightforward performances and no-frills songwriting still fascinate more than five decades after it's original release in March 1974.Sourced from the original analog master tapes, pressed at Fidelity Record Pressing, and housed in a Stoughton gatefold jacket, Mobile Fidelity's numbered-edition 180g 45RPM 2LP set presents the Canadian trio's self-titled effort in definitive audiophile sound. Benefitting from superb groove definition, an ultra-low noise floor, and dead-quiet surfaces, it captures what went down at two Toronto studios with engaging presence, tonal precision, and enhanced dynamics. The fullness, body, and extension of the instruments emerge with newfound clarity and perspective. Afforded revealing separation, soundstaging, and imaging, the music comes across with a scale and size true to the asteroid-burst-like cover art and group's 'Energized Rock' motto. The story of one of rock 'n' roll's greatest bands begins here.1\/4' \/ 15 IPS Dolby A analog master to DSD 256 to analog console to latheNumbered 180g 45RPM Vinyl 2LPLIMITED SPECIAL EDITION\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv data-bt-autogen\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUPC:\u003c\/strong\u003e 821797263214\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLabel:\u003c\/strong\u003e Mobile Fidelity\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRelease Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e 9.18.26\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat:\u003c\/strong\u003e LP Vinyl\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c!-- discogs-import --\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"discogs-import\"\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eDetails\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLabel:\u003c\/strong\u003e Mobile Fidelity Sound Lab (MFSL 1-302); Mercury (MFSL 1-302)  ·  \u003cstrong\u003eReleased:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2007  ·  \u003cstrong\u003eCountry:\u003c\/strong\u003e US\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTracklist\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA1 The Spirit Of Radio – 4:56\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA2 Freewill – 5:21\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA3 Jacob's Ladder – 7:26\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eB1 Entre Nous – 4:36\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eB2 Different Strings – 3:48\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCredits\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHugh Syme – Art Direction, Artwork (Cover Concept By), Graphics\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePeter George (3) – Artwork (Colour Collaboration)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOu La La – Artwork (Cover Girl Couturière)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMike Deere – Artwork (Pilot Of Juliet Foxtrot Kilo)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGeddy Lee – Bass Guitar (Bass Guitars), Synthesizer (Oberheim Polyphonic, OB-1, Mini Moog, Taurus Pedal), Vocals, Mixed By (Assisted By At Trident Studio)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBill Collins (15) – Crew (Concert Rigging)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSam Charters (2) – Crew (Personal Shreve)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eArthur McLear – Crew (Transported By)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGene Guido – Crew (Transported By)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePat Lines – Crew (Transported By)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTim Lewis (20) – Crew (Transported By)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTom Whittaker (4) – Crew (Transported By)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNeil Peart – Drums, Timpani (Tympani), Timbales, Bells (Orchestra Bells), Tubular Bells, Wind Chimes, Bell Tree, Triangle, Crotales, Artwork (Cover Concept By)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAlex Lifeson – Electric Guitar (Six And Twelve String), Acoustic Guitar (Six And Twelve String), Synthesizer (Taurus Pedals)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIan Grandy – Engineer (Concert Sound Engineer)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePaul Northfield – Engineer (Engineered By At Le Studio)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRobbie Whelan – Engineer (With General Assistance From At Le Studio)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMoon Records – Executive-Producer (Executive Production)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShawn R.
