Rush Fly by Nnight

HDTracks proud to celebrate the legacy of Canadian rock trio Rush with three separate five-album sets which together spans their entire historic Mercury Records recording career. Each sector contains five of their fifteen Mercury albums in chronological order. In addition, each volume includes a booklet with unpublished photos, original album lyrics and credits. Mastered by Andy Van Dette from Masterdisk from the original masters through analog console, equalizers and compressors before being recaptured at 96kHz.

"The Spirit Of Radio" is a must-have greatest hits collection featuring Rush’ historic Mercury catalog. This definitive album spans Geddy Lee, Alex Lifeson and Neil Peart’s classic studio outputs, starting at the beginning with their first official radio staple, “Working Man”. It chronologically moves from classic to classic, including “Fly By Night”, “Closer To The Heart”, “The Trees”, the title-track and so on. Spanning thirteen years, both old and new fans will hear many favorites including their biggest hits, “Tom Sawyer” and “New World Man”.

Sectors is a three-volume compilation of Rush's historic 15 album run on Mercury Records from 1974 to 1989, broken down into three separate box sets.

Largely considered one of Rush's darkest albums, the million-selling "Grace Under Pressure" was a response to growing tensions in the Cold War in the 1980s. The album’s running theme is “pressure” and how humans act under its influence. Despite the bleakness of the songs, the band balances elements of ska, funk and reggae and an increasing use of synthesizers and electronics with consistently strong songwriting and typical instrumental virtuosity.

Rush's first major commercial success and a signature record is based around the eponymous side-long rock opera. Influenced by the writings of Ayn Rand, the story takes place during a galaxy-wide war in the year 2112. Rush spent about six months writing this album and then took another month to record it. This deluxe edition includes three album tracks recorded live.

"Permanent Waves" is the band’s seventh studio album, released on New Year’s Day, 1980. It was recorded at Le Studio, Morin Heights, Quebec, and mixed at Trident Studios in London. The tracks were laid down just shy of four weeks, in part attributed to the idyllic working conditions of Morin Heights. The album marks a transition from long, conceptual pieces, into a more accessible, radio-friendly style.
