Description

More than forty years into their career, Rush could easily have coasted on the hits. Instead, they released "Clockwork Angels," an ambitious steampunk concept album that turned out to be one of the strongest records of their career, and then took it on the road with a twist they had never tried before. For the first time, Geddy Lee, Alex Lifeson and Neil Peart were joined onstage by an eight-piece string section. "Clockwork Angels Tour" captures that sold-out 2012-2013 run, and the filmmaking matches the band's creative ambition. Using a distinctive, almost voyeuristic approach, the cameras put you onstage, in the wings and out among the crowd, giving you a fresh perspective on a band you thought you knew. Across more than three hours of music, you'll hear favorites like "Tom Sawyer" and "The Spirit Of Radio," three of Peart's legendary drum solos and stirring new string arrangements of classics like "YYZ," "Dreamline" and "Red Sector A." Longtime fans will especially appreciate rarely performed gems like "The Body Electric" and "Middletown Dreams." Also included are a full soundcheck performance of "Limelight" and a backstage documentary filmed across Europe. Freshly inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, with more than 40 million albums sold and one of the longest streaks of gold and platinum records in rock history, Rush were still pushing themselves. That restless creativity is exactly what made them legends.
