Plot Summary
The latest addition to the acclaimed & award winning Classic Albums series tells the story behind the making of two legendary albums from Rush. “2112” was the album that saw Rush break through to major chart success, going to No.1 in their native Canada and Top 75 in the USA where it would eventually be certified triple platinum. “Moving Pictures” opened them to a mass audience for the first time and remains the biggest selling album of their career. It also went to No.1 in Canada and went quadruple platinum there while hitting No. 3 in both the UK and USA. Rush members Geddy Lee, Alex Lifeson and Neil Peart talk us through the making of the albums, together with original producer Terry Brown via interviews, demonstrations, archive videos and use of the original multi-track tapes.
Customer Reviews
At Last...
This documentary is just so necessary for the Rush fans. Two excellent albums, and how they came to be. How they were made and the stories about them. The interpretations of various songs and concepts. To peek behind the 2112 'curtain' alone is extremely interesting. And you get a look at the guys themselves. This and Beyond The Lighted Stage are MUST-HAVES, they really are. Here's a group we've known little about apart from their ability to create excellent works, opening up about their best albums - or at least two of their best. From the recently initiated to the longest fans, these two documentaries are the best gifts.
Oh Yeah
Another well produced, insightful flick about the these three canadian rock kings. A+.
Where was side two of Moving Pictures?
All in all, this is a great documentary. I would have given it five stars if they covered side two of Moving Pictures. The Camera Eye is such a great song. I wanted to know more about the recording of it. Witch Hunt with the double tracked drums would have been awesome to hear. And Vital Signs, the track the was written in the studio, would have been nice to learn more about. Oh well... Better luck next time...
