Feedback – RushView More By Rush Our ReviewNo one could've predicted this 2004 EP — a collection of the band's favorite tunes. The pure heavy metal thunder of Eddie Cochran's "Summertime Blues" is undeniable and quite a shocker coming from a band that always found ways to complicate its simplest impulses with elaborate concepts and deliberate, fussy intricacies. Here, guitarist Alex Lifeson turns the amp to ten, drummer Neil Peart kicks out the jams, slipping in just a few quick flourishes to keep things interesting, and singer Geddy Lee refrains from the high-end hysteria to deliver a full-throated attack. There's nearly an R&B menace to the folk-rock haunting the Yardbirds' "Heart Full of Soul," where gorgeous harmonies and Lifeson's thick fuzz-tone spring the song to life. They double-dip into the Yardbirds catalog with a sonically ambitious take on the psychedelic classic "Shapes of Things." The Buffalo Springfield's "For What It's Worth" never sounded more ominous and the band speeds up Love's "Seven and Seven Is" until it's nearly hardcore punk. This Canadian power trio has never been criticized for being too brief, but this collection could easily be expanded considering how much fun Rush is having.. Customer ReviewsUnbelievable! (5 stars)Although I am 41 years old, I am not much of a classic rock, retro whatever kinda guy. I honestly don't remember how I stumbled across this album on iTunes but damn, I'm glad I did. I downloaded it months ago and I am still in shock. Sometimes you just need something that'll clean your pipes out and this album is just the thing. Nothin' but pure, unfiltered rock and roll baby. It's tight, it cooks, its fresh, and its awesome. It's a bo frikkin Great (5 stars) what a great tribute by 3 of the greatest rock musicians of our time, a real treat to hear their renditions of some of their favorites...Crossroads rox....and neil, as always is incredible!!!! For What It's Worth (4 stars) This Rush album is a great tribute to their heroes of youth. Of course it's not up there with 2112 or Moving Pictures but it's not intended to be. It's a very fun and enjoyable listen. "Crossroads" is superb, I also love their renditions of "Summertime Blues" and "The Seeker". This is not Rush trying to reinvent the wheel, it's a great band paying homage to their rock & roll role models. Give it a listen, yo BiographyFormed: 1968 in Toronto, Ontario, CanadaGenre: Rock Years Active: '60s, '70s, '80s, '90s, '00s, '10s Over the course of their decades-spanning career, Canadian power trio Rush emerged as one of hard rock's most highly regarded bands; although typically brushed aside by critics and rarely the recipients of mainstream pop radio airplay, Rush nonetheless won an impressive and devoted fan following...
