THE ALBUM OF THE DAY
RUSH...Hemispheres (1978)
Hemispheres was released 35 years ago in 1978. It reached number 47 on the U.S. Billboard Album Charts. I'll give it a 4 1/2 out of 5 stars. The only reason I don't give it a 5 star rating is because during the track "Circumstances" Geddy Lee's vocals are almost irritating. Other than that this record is fantastic. The album only has 4 tracks but that's absolutely ok. The other 3 are great listening. The best of the 4 is "La Villia Strangiato". Check it out
