40th Anniversary Deluxe Edition 180g 4LP Set!

Featuring For The First Time Ever The Complete Holy Grail Rush Concert!

Includes Bonus Tracks, 32-Page Booklet & Custom Turntable Mat!

Rush releases a lavish, expanded edition of the landmark album A Farewell to Kings — the fifth studio album originally released in 1977, which introduced the radio hit "Closer To The Heart," album tracks "A Farewell To Kings," "Madrigal," "Cinderella Man," as well as enduring fan favorites with "Xanadu" and "Cygnus X-1."

The 40th Anniversary Deluxe Edition includes four high-quality 180-gram vinyl LPs; a complete Rush concert recorded in February 1978 at London's Hammersmith Odeon, newly mixed by longtime Rush engineer and original A Farewell to Kings producer Terry Brown from the multi-track live tapes; four newly-recorded cover versions of songs from the original album by Dream Theater, Big Wreck, The Trews and Alain Johannes; and an instrumental studio outtake of the spacey sound effects the band has creatively titled "Cygnus X-2 Eh." The Hammersmith show features, for the first-time ever, over 34 minutes of unreleased performances including a complete "2112" suite, "Lakeside Park," a drum solo and "Closer To The Heart." The Deluxe package also includes an elaborate new 40th anniversary cover treatment by longtime Rush creative director Hugh Syme, who has also created a new piece of artwork for each of the albums six songs and a special 12-inch turntable mat featuring his distinctive arwork, plus extensive 12,000-word liner notes by Grammy®-winning rock historian Rob Bowman.

 You should never pass up the opportunity to upgrade your collection. They're each very limited in their pressings and disappear with extraordinary quickness from the vinyl market. This causes prices to skyrocket because once they are gone, they are gone forever! Don't second-guess yourself with this chance to upgrade your collection because before you know it, the opportunity will have passed forever.

The nicest thing you can do for your stylus and your ears. The ultimate record -- the way music was meant to be heard.
