I came around to more Prog Rock via Pink Floyd and then King Crimson, and like any genre of music there is good and bad to discover, and to my surprise I found the good to include Rush, Yes and early Genesis. All three I would've turned my noise up to 20 years ago, maybe it's an age thing...
Here we have Rush's best album for me, the 20 minute title track is very interesting and seems to pass quite quickly, I don't hear anything wrong with Geddy Lee's vocals which seem to put some off. The album does perhaps fade somewhat towards the end but there is still enough quality here by far. [First added to this chart: 06/14/2016]

Possibly the best place to start for anyone curious, this is probably the most consistant album by Rush, it includes Tom Sawyer which is a regular on the radio. Although I would prefer Limelight which has a very subtle riff and powers along very nicely.
