It's good, but nowhere near their best. "Red Barchetta" is one of Neil's best drum performances, and "The Camera Eye" is dope as well. I'm also quite partial to "Limelight". Still, this album is decidedly lacking in emotion (like many Rush albums, to be honest), which hurts it a lot. I would rank Permanent Waves, Signals, and Presto above it.

My favorite Rush album. Talk about a great prog-rock release, especially on the latter end of prog's heyday.

Yet, Permanant Waves remains better. Still a good album.
