Notes:
This is the first of two nights Rush played at the Molson Amphitheatre in 1997.
This is the same concert that was professionally filmed, and partially released on the R40 DVD/Bluray box set.
While there is also an audience video of the entire concert (which I will upload later), this audio recording captures the entire setlist in overall really good sound quality.
This is a rare scanner sourced recording.
Unlike a soundboard recording that equally captures all instrument and mic feeds, from what I understand a scanner would lock into a single feed of one of the band member's monitor/earpiece.
Due to this, Alex's backing vocals are very prominent, giving you an interesting alternate angle to hear just how much vocals Alex actually did. (And how well he could sing!)
The songs Alex sings on are Dreamline, Stick It Out, Driven, Half The World, Nobody's Hero, Freewill, and Roll The Bones.
Also, the acoustic guitar and some synths sound somewhat distant due to not really being picked up by the scanner, but they are audible at a decent volume.
Other than that, the electric guitar, bass, drums, and Geddy's vocals (and Alex's) are all very clear and balanced, thus this recording is pretty much soundboard-like quality.
The only bigger standout problem with this recording is a loud steady buzzing/beeping noise during the first 70ish seconds of Tom Sawyer.

Unfortunately, YouTube sadly blocks this video from view in all countries outside of Canada.
