Limelight: Rush in the '80s

Om Limelight: Rush in the '80s

In this follow-up to Anthem: Rush in the '70s, Martin Popoff brings together canon analysis, cultural context, and extensive first-hand interviews to celebrate Geddy Lee, Alex Lifeson, and Neil Peart at the peak of their persuasive power. Rush was one of the most celebrated hard rock acts of the '80s, and the second book of Popoff's staggeringly comprehensive three-part series takes readers from Permanent Waves to Presto, while bringing new insight to Moving Pictures, their crowning glory. Limelight: Rush in the '80s is a celebration of fame, of the pushback against that fame, of fortunes made -- and spent ... In the latter half of the decade, as Rush adopts keyboard techno-logy and gets pert and poppy, there's an uproar amongst diehards, but the band finds a whole new crop of listeners. Limelight charts a dizzying period in the band's career, built of explosive excitement but also exhaustion, a state that would lead, as the '90s dawned, to the band questioning everything they previously believed and each member eyeing the oncoming decade with trepidation and suspicion. Praise for Anthem: Rush in the '70s: "This is the Rush biography that you need." -- Spill Magazine "It takes an inquisitive researcher's mind to properly tell such a rich history, and ... Popoff more than proves he's the man for the job." -- Sonic Perspectives "This will thrill Rush's huge fan base." -- Publishers Weekly "A must for Rush fans." -- Library Journal "The amount of detail is astonishing ..." -- Metal-Rules
