• May 2023 Update: Many apoligies for the extended period of inactivity, however many big changes for Rush Archives are now in progress. This should benefit everyone, and propel the site onward in the most realistic way possible. Thank you to those who have been supporting this project, and for being patient with the methods I've so far been operating. Further details will be coming soon.

Notes:
This recording features early live versions of The Spirit Of Radio and Freewill.
This was Rush's final performance of the 1970s, final unabridged performance of 2112 (without Oracle: The Dream) until the T4E tour in 1996, final unabridged performance of Cygnus X-1, and final performance of Hemispheres to include Apollo (already abridged to exclude Dionysus following the Hemispheres tour).
Closer To The Heart was allegedly recorded, but omitted from these available sources before entering circulation 20+ years ago.

While the quality of this recording stinks big time, and is missing Closer To The Heart, the good news is I have located an undigitized tape of this concert that does contain CTTH.
I can not vouch for its quality as of yet, but we plan to work on a digital transfer of this tape sometime in 2023.
