105 - Rush YYZ 1981

Rush´s Moving Pictures is undeniably one of the greatest hard rock albums of all time. The whole entire first side is perfect their most renowned song, "Tom Sawyer," kicks things off, and is soon followed by the racing "Red Barchetta, or " the amazing instrumental "YYZ". There is a sense of freedom in "Yyz" as well, a show case for guitarist Alex Lifeson. It begins with Peart and Lee attacking their respective instruments, each generating a big, thick and heavy sound which gives way to Lifeson's guitar. In the bridge section, things throttle back a bit while Lifeson plays an especially sinewy phrase.
