Summary:
Few rock bands that emerged in the 1970s have achieved career longevity until the present day. One of the notable exceptions is the hard rockin' Canadian trio Rush. The group's 1974 self-titled debut and the follow-up album Fly By Night, issued the following year, created a buzz among heavy rock aficionados, but little else. The third album, Caress Of Steel, found the band beginning to create a hard-edged form of progressive rock (quite unlike its British progressive-rock counterpart) that confused as many fans as it gained. The breakthrough would finally occur upon the release of Rush's fourth album, 2112 in March of 1976. An ambitious concept album that explored a dystopian future, with lyrics influenced by the philosophical writings of Ayn Rand, 2112 found Rush striking a new balance between heavy and progressive rock that established all three members as highly accomplished instrumentalists. Arguably the band's signature album, 2112 would be lambasted by critics, yet gained the band a rabid global following that remains strong to the present day.
Presented here is Rush recorded live at The Capitol Theatre in Passaic, NJ at the tail end of 1976, just nine months after the release of 2112. Performing choice selections from their first four albums, this concert provides a nice overview of the group's early years, just as they were beginning to break big. From the raging opener of "Bastille Day" to the encore pairing of "Fly By Night" and "In The Mood," this performance is a prime example of these three musicians vacillating between the heavy metal leanings of their first two albums and the more ambitious material from Caress Of Steel and 2112.
Also featured here are strong renditions of "Anthem," another Ayn Rand influenced composition from their second album and the autobiographical "Lakeside Park" from their third, conveying a slightly softer side to the group. However, the centerpiece of this performance is unquestionably the epic title track from 2112. Clocking in at a full 16 minutes, here the band is clearly shifting into more complex compositions and the more eclectic sci-fi lyrical leanings that would capture the imaginations of millions. It was performances like this that won Rush such a dedicated following, which continues to pack arenas every time Rush takes to the road.
Geddy's voice is just a freak of nature...."WROOOUUUUUGGHHHHHHHHHHHHT"
You nailed it .
Nobody can match it.....
He is a high tenor, just like James LaBrie, Claudio Sanchez and maybe Robert Plant, very thin vocal folds, therefore very delicate, that's why if you smoke or abuse the voice in anyway without resting it they tend to lose the control over the natural extra flexibility in it, like Geddy and James apparently did.
He sound so Androgynous and nice it sound like a mix between a woman and a high bright tenor with a boyish quality simultaneously
@@FedeMayhemile. Countertenor aka true tenor Altino he sound like a mix of a woman and high tenor with a boyish tone simultaneously into a Androgynous or gender ambiguous sound
This was the beginning of the legend called Rush. Three guys in their twenties that inspired hundreds of rock musicians who aspired to the same level of excellence.
I'm sure the number of rock musicians they inspired is in the thousands
Geddys voice was so unbelievable, it’s no surprise that it deteriorated like it did because in some of the older stuff he screams his fucking heart out, easily one of the best and probably one of the most underrated vocalists of all time
It draws attention as this word ( underrated ) is invariably used in almost all comments related to bands, artists and singers for you Americans! It's not a criticism, just something interesting I've noticed.
@@EdsonM. lmao I’m British I just don’t think lees vocal work is talked about in the same way that a lot of others are e.g Freddy Mercury, Robert plant etc, when he really deserves to be rated among the upper echelons of vocalists in all of rock
@@ehsbe1056 Geddy Lee's vocals were very remarkable in Rush's early days, particularly the Fly By Night album. A lot of other musicians back then used to diss his voice, but I always retorted, "Really? cuz I think he's great." Ged's vocals definitely had us all talking about it.
This version of "Anthem" isn't too bad- much better than any other live version I've heard. But the album cut was f***ing unbelievable, both vocal-wise and instrument-wise. I still remember my eyes bugging out and my mouth gaping open when I first heard it.
I agree. He is way underated. Especially those 70's albums and performances . He's absolutely nailing it. Incredible. Definitely one of the greatest rock vocalists in my opinion.
His voice held together for quite a while. Most singers who extend their careers into their 60s and beyond have problems performing their earlier numbers.
The Drumming man. The drumming. WTF. Unbelievable.
Too bad there ain't any camera's on Neil for this...its just incredible!
@@Krazy_Shorts This one, from 1975, pays lots of attention to Neil Peart (1952-2020), without beard yet --> ruclips.net/video/3oEQuzHp5I0/видео.html
It ain't easy being cheesy
The early playing gets overlooked a lot
Neil was a god, he was really that great!
Rest In Peace Mr. Peart.
Thank you
Wisdom spirit best wishes to the wise men
As a matter of fact, Neil reached immortality through his amazing work. He will live forever.
THAT INTRO!!! THAT BRUTAL DRUMMING!! THAT HIGH PITCH KILLER VOCAL!!! THAT FIRERY GUITAR SOLO!!! A MASTERPIECE SONG EVER!!!
Saw them long ago. UFO opened. When Rush played Anthem, the light show was insane. I still can't fully describe it. The musicianship n light show was indescribable.
I saw that tour. I think April Wine opened then UFO
@@jimhere1 That is too much greatness at one time.
Wow! UFO and Rush, that must have been killer!
Vocals are outstanding and crystal clear! This has to be one best rock tunes of ALL because it's welded the explosive power and performance of coming of age with the solid and timeless lyric of determined achievement well beyond those years. Anthem IS remarkable.
the first wroooooooooooought was pure fucking rockstar material
Rush is good at every phase, but this is just unbelievable. Just three guys pounding it out, the sound they make, and the tightness, is mind-blowing.
I can personally say this is one of my favorite songs to listen to. Rush is a big influence on me being a bassist. Playing this type of music really helps me understand how music back then was raw and skillful. Me being 16 it’s really hard to find people my age have the same interest
Keep the faith..let no one dissuade you from enjoying real music.It is inspiring to know some young people have respect for and enjoy RUSH.Hold the torch high young friend!
I'm seventeen and playing this for my friends feels like an absolute travesty
@@williammorgan584 you know more than they know
You go Kid, you're gonna do great. Same stuff inspired me.
Here in South Texas, during the earlier 1970s, I guess that many Rock acts passed us up because of the amount of money that they could make in bigger venues. But from about 1972 or so, a DJ named Joe Anthony started a Heavy Metal/Hard Rock station on an AM station, KMAC-AM, which was a Farm and Ranch station out of San Antonio. At noon, the Agricultural Price Report would come on and then at 12:30, after the Hog Prices, all of a sudden the best blistering Hard Rock and Heavy Metal of those days would start, with Joe Anthony as the first DJ and then later on Lou Roney would finish up the evening. Later, Joe Anthony started KISS-FM. But this man LOVED this type of music and started Stone City Attractions, with a business partner, and started bringing the Rock groups to South Texas. The Canadian bands were VERY receptive. Moxy, Rush, Triumph, Frank Morino and Mahogany Rush and others, came down from the North. But RUSH and Joe Anthony had a GREAT relationship. The three members of Rush called Joe Anthony the FOURTH MEMBER of Rush. Thanks to Joe Anthony, Rush came to San Antonio and then down to our area, numerous times during the second half of the '70s. I was able to see many Rush concerts during the time that they were one KICKASS Rock band. They were HIGH ENERGY back then. Those were the days when the Rush albums proudly stated that "NO SYNTHESIZERS WERE USED". Geddy Lee and Geezer Butler are STILL my favourite Bass Masters of the '70s. Damn, I bet Geddy, Alex and Neal got some overwhelming CONTACT HIGHS when they played here! Joe Anthony became known as 'THE GODFATHER OF ROCK in San Antonio and South Texas and passed away several years ago at an early age. I never met him, but because of this man's love for Heavy Metal and Hard Rock music, l(and many others)was able to see many great groups, guitarists, bass players and drummer's during Rock's greatest decade, the '70s.
Very interesting
I'm from Corpus and went to all those shows back then. A masterpiece in time. Never to duplicated again during our lifetime.
No words can describe how spectacular, phenomenal, outstanding, terrific, mindblowing and awesome are these guys. Thank you sooooo soooo much for sharing this more than inspiring performance. Love RUSH!
Greatest rock band there ever was or will be
Led Zeppelin takes that title. Rush is #2 though 😉
@@seanoconnor5730 Im a bit biased here, but Rush does get overlooked most of the time. They were together longer than most others. They have hard, prog, and soft rock as well.
Sean O'Connor im gonna have to disagree
I concur.
This concert was my Birthday present. Awesome memory!
Wow Geddy's vocals , and I'm suprised you can hear Alex and Geddy over Neil's drums there loud , RIP Neil gone but never forgotten
Imagine hearing this for the first time in 1974... These three guys were just SO FAR ahead of their time; and of course Mr. Peart was the driving force and heart beat of this band. His work really is the pinnacle of Rock/Hard Rock percussion, not to mention the basis of virtually all heavy metal style percussion. One way or another Neil influenced generations of percussionists either directly or indirectly. The world suffered an immense loss with the passing of Neil Peart, but he left us an immense body of work to enjoy forever- as well as to be studied by the up-and-coming.
That fill at 3:16. Wow. RIP Professor Neil.
That's insane
3:25
Rush is one of the wonders of the world
Talk about tight.... the timing... impeccable. A Power Trio to define the meaning of Power Trio....
They all have really amazing hair. I love seeing guys with long hair
The pacing, interplay, timing and “all being on the same page (STAGE!)” were on display early on! This was apparent to me with my first exposure being All the World’s a Stage (sic?), the live album recommended to me in 1976(?) by a high school classmate who loved music and later became a DJ, but who was not himself a fan of RUSH. I was captivated by the drumming, the passion of the only three players, and the “forward” presentation which resonated with my also being on the outside of mass acceptance.
My belief is that RUSH spoke to many tens of thousands of souls who found their validated voice in the lyrics and drive of this truly terrific trio!!
Their timing is unparalleled!!! Fantastic.
Excuse me..... while I pick up my Jaw off of the floor!!!!
They sound incredibly heavy here. Geddy’s voice sounds like a new wave of British heavy metal band singer. Love Rush. So many facets.
Live for yourself - There's no one else - more worth living for......! My all time favorite Rush tune. Seeing it live at Cobo Hall in Detroit in the 70's was absolutely spectacular!
that solo was nasttyyyyyyy
@Prog Legendas that means it was good...
RIP Neil. This song alone change the story of Rush. From a Hard Rock band to all we have heard for more than 40 years. The blasting drums in the intro shows "thats the way we do now". Man they rocked really hard in the 70's.
alex ripping back in the day.
How could you hear him fart
Alex lifeson:I love playing fast!
Neil Peart: hold on there buddy I'm driving the bus
It’s their level of perfection playing studio and live that’s astounding 45plus years of fandom…. always hear something new
My god - the drumming in the intro is insane. The high hat.
Loved it when Lifeson did those open chords.
I first heard Rush when I bought the album Archive never heard of the band when I got back to my nan's put it on the sound just blew me away and music and lyrics best band ever
Bern my favorite band since I was about 13. These guys got me thru a lot if weird times I'm life
Guitar, drumms, bass
Perfect 🤘🤘🤘🤘
friggin great - this is perhaps the last of their LP's that keeps a portion of their original sound with Rutsey.
Know your place in life is where you want to be
Don't let them tell you that you owe it all to me
Keep on looking forward, no use in looking 'round
Hold your head above the crowd and they won't bring you down
Anthem of the heart and anthem of the mind
A funeral dirge for eyes gone blind
We marvel after those who sought
The wonders of the world, wonders of the world
Wonders of the world they wrought
Live for yourself
There's no one else more worth living for
Begging hands and bleeding hearts
Will only cry out for more
Anthem of the heart and anthem of the mind
A funeral dirge for eyes gone blind
We marvel after those who sought
The wonders of the world, wonders of the world
Wonders of the world they wrought
Well, I know they've always told you
Selfishness was wrong
Yet it was for me, not you
I came to write this song
Anthem of the heart and anthem of the mind
A funeral dirge for eyes gone blind
We marvel after those who sought
The wonders of the world, wonders of the world
Wonders of the world they wrought, wrought, wrought
Absolute legends.
The best three piece rock band ever! Simple!
Those dual staccato notes sound/feel like a kick in the stomach.
SUCH RAW POWER
Impeccable syncopated timing... one of the best in the business.... Rock ROCK *ROCK*
This just blows my mind...the whole enchilada! We are so lucky to have this precious footage of RUSH from 1976. As a kid, I would have given my left eye to have seen this footage. They are just so hungry and full of energy. The three of them are just very special people and their 40+ year career together proves that. Neil's passing is such a devastating blow to all those loved him and the band. He deserved a much better ending than he received. I am just pleased that we have this archival footage of the band as it sounded in 1976.
This was so huge in the 70s!!!! Big music moguls tried shutting them down.. Check it out.. Bon Scott was totally blown away by them.. They are the consumate rock and roll band
My favorite era of rush....damn the memories of fly by night , caress of steel, farewell to kings. Great times
The adolescence of greatness right here folks
Rush was a next level band, three guys making that kinda noise, they're up there in the top tier of groups 👏🔥💯
They kicked fucking arse in spectacular fashion, lifeson was hugely underrated as was geddy and neil was extraordinary
That moment at 2:55.... when Alex is destroying the solo... and with that glorious delay, Neil and Geddy hit that the Low note with POWER!!!!
R.I.P., Neil Peart, master percussionist and thoughtful lyricist
I would almost call it a freak of nature at how high Geddys voice got for a man!Im psyched for his solo album! He should have some guest appearances from different musicians Maybe Rick Emmet being that Alex played on Ricks solo debut.
It came out in 2000, you got it?
amazing guitar sound!
Thank you for posting this. I have been a fan of these guys for decades.The All The Worlds a Stage live album was the first Rush record I ever heard . Great to see the video of it. It is a shame people only now are starting to find out how much ass these guys have been Kicking for decades!
Just look at Geddy go in this video, he had so much energy in those days.
TealScarab he still has loads of energy now
ALL of those black-and-white Capitol theater videos are unreal ... So many killer bands have etched their hard work into eternity at the Cap..so great that this classic venue had the wherewithal to lay this stuff down on tape...
Great guitar solo!
Three guys made this colossal sound! Absolutely incredible!!
absolutely breathtaking for a live performance
Long Live Rush! Cincinnati loves you!
It's good to be young, full of energy, carefree.... oh and that beautiful elasticity in your voice effortlessly (seemingly) hitting any note playing with the melody.
Saw these guys 1980 opened for fred nugent what a big jam....This tune just grabbed me hard. What a masterpiece.
We seen em in Seattle in 1975... Yes Betty sure had a very high pitch voice back then. Can't remember it this high.
Well.... we all were very high back then to be honest
Neil's Ayn Rand inspired lyrics are a thing of beauty
People hate on Rand all the time, she's is so misunderstood
@@gijsmarkwat Nit really
There is no denying that this rocks, whatever the underlying circumstances may or may not be.
So much power ... I'm crying 💪
fly by night was my fav forever.the album. Beneath,between & behind
Amazing song. Amazing band.
These guys were on fire back in their heyday, man, this is fucking awesome
One of the best bands of all time!
For my money $$$$$$ the best band in the world i saw them live 9 times and it was better than the studio..............
Alex is such a creative guy, he comes up with spectacular original stuff, fantastic.
This is absolutely fantastic. I love 70s hard rock. Nothing comes even close to it anymore.
My first thought was, damn Geddy is good, then damn alex is good, and then neil is good. What a spectacular trio!
The greatest. PERIOD.
Three musicians that make the sound of an orchestra!!
Epic....this is the song that changed everything for me.
Love you guys!! Thank you 🙏
Speechless. Alex. All I can say.
The world will miss you Neil. RIP!
El increíble Neil Peart!! Cómo le cambió el carácter a la banda!! Lo que aportó con sus letras y su destreza única en la batería!! Un trío que me sigue llenando el corazón, nunca vi ninguna banda más genial que está!!💪💪
I think I was at this show or one close to it, it may have been '77 All the worlds a stage tour, I Believe. What I do remember was being there, and that damn every rock type drummer professional or not was down front near the stage playing air drums right along with Neil. it was F-kening amazing to see, it was the first time I've ever seen that many obvious drummers ulike that ,doing that. I Loved Rush,ever since 1975 when a good high school friend Frank L. not only turned me on to Rush but Frank Zappa, as well,of whom I was lucky enough to have seen twice thanks to my Bass playing Reichnbacher,friend Frank L. forever grateful ,Man. I played drums and guitar and with all that said, Sing on dude, Play on drummer !!
how was rush live?
-a new fan that wishes they could’ve seen them at their peak
Anyone live on 2112 Anthem Road, Willowdale Ontario.
GEDDY'S SHOES THO
Platform shoes and boots were di riguier back in the day.
that was the shit back then.
Ozzy, wore them also!
How can you focus on the shoes while he's molesting a gorgeous Rickenbacker that's as tall as he is? I have a soft spot in my heart and a hard spot in my pants for Rickenbacker 4001.
seek help.
Remember I bought "All the World's a Stage" when it came out (yeah, I'm old).....as soon as I heard this song and that delay part, I became a life long fan.
Years ago...about 1984...we were working at Mid West Pipe Coating in Schererville,Indiana.Our boss at the time let us listen to my jam box as long as we kept it hidden from the upper brass as we called them.As it was so noisey in that building....unless you were right next to radio.....you couldnt hear anything but the large ovens.I worked as the coating inspector......checking thickness of coatings on the finished product.So this line they called Customs.So....a song came on by Triumph....Lay It On The Line.....This one know it all kid says....man Rush is the best for a three piece outfit,I immeadiately said ......That isn't Rush.......The kid looks at me and laughs....wanna bet....Sure i said..we decided on a hundred dollar bill...your on.The other guys around us just smiled and said.....who cares who the band is.Well....i won the bet and had to bring in my 8-track tape of Triumph in just to prove my point.The bet was in June and it took a few months to finally get my money.
I was born 5 days after this. Rush is great.
Best Anthem ever.
Damnnn, what a time it was. Missing those time right now!
Alex looks like such a rock star ⭐️
Raw power! Ged's vocals = oh my God!
Mind you, just three dudes, laying it down, yeah, I’m fan since nov 1974!!!!
Saw them just a week before this show. Denver Auditorium Arena, opening up for Ted Nugent. I had been hip to 2112 for about three months prior,and I kept telling everyone how good they were. Tore it up that night!
The light man should be FIRED! Keeping a legend in the dark all song!
I'm biased because Rush is my absolute favorite band, but this is just on another level. The power, the vocals, the drums, Alex's guitar....I don't have the words to describe how amazing it all is.
My god this is incredible- raw rock and roll - nothing better. Ged’s voice not of this world.
Killer now as it was then. No current act will eve touch the creativity and talent they displayed in a 40 year career. Those days are long gone.
TEMAZOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
My all-time favorite Rush song. Killer guitar work
my thoughts exactly Javier. Funny how this is just now coming out of the cracks. Excellent quality and love the subtle changes in parts.
I am not worthy
From Italy Meraviglioso! Wonderfull !
These guys were incendiary - always!
