Excellent Prog Rock!
perfect Musicianship
Objectively, this probably comes off as Rush's finest hour. There are a couple of the issues I have with later Rush surfacing (vestigial bursts of music after the intense atmospheric opening of Xanadu, for instance). Still, superb.

Kestrel is very familiar with this album.
Stellar Prog Rock!
Classic
One of the best albums ever recorded. Simple as that. It features some of their best songs such as the title track and "Xanadu". The album goes from pretty ballads like to straight-out rockin' musicwhile showing off each member's skills. One of the few albums I can listen to without wanting to skip to the next song because of a boring patch. It's just an amazing piece of work.
