Manage episode 403017977 series 2969785
‘The Freedom Of Music’
Rush’s 7th studio album, ‘Permanent Waves’, marked a departure from their earlier sound and embraced a more diverse musical palette. Incorporating synthesisers more heavily and refining songs into simpler structures with a more radio friendly accessibility, Rush changed their own trajectory and gained many new fans/plaudits from this release.
Whether you’re a die-hard Rush fan or discovering ‘Permanent Waves’ for the first time, join us as we dive into Rush’s most successful album (up to that point) and explore the fine balance achieved between Progressiveness and Accessibility coupled with Peart’s traditional lyrics commenting on society and freewill.
