I never expected the greatest album of all time to actually be the AOD.

I don't revisit this album often, because the 3 singles are so heavily played in Canada already and I don't really feel the need to seek those songs out, but there are some gems in the deep cuts of this one too.

Just curious... besides Tom Sawyer and Limelight, what is the other song that gets all the airplay up there?

Red Barchetta is also heavily played in Canada. Its sort of a shame, but that trio and a couple of songs from Signals (Subdivisions, New World Man) are the vast majority of what gets played on rock radio in Canada considering how wide of a career Rush has.

In the rock radio in Spain, whatever band (except maybe Queen), no matter their career, gets played their single or at most their 2-3 most well known singles. For example, Pink Floyd gets Another brick in the wall and sometimes Wish you were here or Comfortably numb. So having a band like Rush getting 5 singles played regularly I find fantastic.

in Toronto, classic rock stn 107.1 (which is not bad but certainly not great) plays extensive rush. lakeside park, working man, in the mood, extensive tracks from moving pictures, permanent waves & farewell to kings - basically the whole spectrum is played. I find that the earlier albums get more airplay than the later stuff.
