MOVING PICTURES is the intersection between Rush's '70s art-rock style and their sequencer-laced '80s efforts. An incredible stylistic leap for the band, the songs here incorporate reggae, percolating synth and even a new wave-tinged early '80s pop sensibility. "Tom Sawyer," the ultimate alienated-teen saga, is the album's best known song. "Red Barchetta" picks up where 2112 left off with futuristic, sci fi-oriented lyrics. The instrumental "YYZ" is as far into straight-up progressive rock as the band had ever ventured. Things get socio-political on the ominous "Witch Hunt," and a Jamaican flavor enlivens "Vital Signs." The increased reliance on synthesizers and sequencers would later become irksome to old school Rush fans, but on MOVING PICTURES, electronics are tastefully applied to further the group's musical vision, making for what just might be their finest batch of songs.

Professional Reviews

Record Collector (magazine) (p.94) - 4 stars out of 5 -- "Rush were patently listening to what was going on around them, leavening their long-form integral calculus riffing with accessibly catchy motifs..."

Classic Rush. This is Geddy Lee & company at their best. Not only is this 1981 album their best album it is also one of the best rock albums of all time. All tracks on this album are classics. Four are concert favourites (Tom Sawyer, Red Barchetta, Limelight, YYZ). The album kicks of with a Rush anthem 'Tom Sawyer'. This is their most renowned song. Next is 'Red Barchetta'. A racing and atmospheric song with superb rifts and rhythms. 'YYZ' the third track an instrumental. Then' Limelight' which catches Rush in a reflective mood about stardom. Next track is the 11 minute 'Camera Eye'. A track which has many different levels and sections. Reminiscent of older rush with the length of the song. Then follows Witchhunt which is atmospheric and masterful. Finally, another Rush gem Vital Signs. Rush with Moving Pictures proved they still had a place in the rock industry. This is one of their most enduring and significant albums.
