Pros: Great sampling of old classic Rush songs along with more modern choices. Cons: Some duplication from earlier Video collection releases.
Someone once wrote "It's about the music, man..." and in many respects, that can sum up the overall feeling about your typical Rush-related videos. It's not about the imagery. It's not about how Geddy, Alex and Neil appear on screen.
Pros: Nice sample of some of Rush's better work Cons: 2 CDs can't cover 20 years of excellent music
Let me start things off by explaining my rating of four out of five stars. Chronicles is really a pretty good set, with some of Rush's better songs included on the two discs. However, as a big fan of Rush who owns somewhere around fifteen or so...
Pros: Excellent sampling of the band's classic songs from their career. Cons: Chopped up version of 2112, somewhat predictable selection of songs.
Before I begin this review of the Rush compilation cd-set called Chronicles, I'd like to quote my very last review, which was on Rush's last live album/3-cd set Different Stages:
Pros: They're masters of music. How can I write it all in this tiny space?? Cons: Some of the videos are a bit corny
It always amazes me that a band of this caliber exists and it always amazes me even more that a band of this caliber can go through so many changes and still sound just as incredible today as they did when they first started!
Pros: good track selection highlighting at least one song from every album Cons: there is always room for other songs worthy of greatest hits status
For those of you just starting to explore the progressive rock genre, or simply have a mild interest in Rush, then "Chronicles" is the right best of compilation for you.
I guess I would consider myself to be more than just a mild...
Pros: One of the better lyrical and musical rock and roll bands. Cons: A few of the later tracks especially are relatively weak, but the strong material more than makes up for it.
Good things come from North of the border, and Rush is no exception. Formed in the late 60's, Rush has been playing rock and roll that adapted to the times all through out their career, spanning well into the 90's. While the peak of their popularity...
Pros: Great for new fans. A little taste of most of their styles Cons: One of the songs is cut down to fit on the cd
This is a great start for any new Rush fan, or just a good collector's item to have if you have most of the cd's already. I was hooked to this band more so than any other band just by listening to this cd set one time. Then I bought it on tape and...
Chronicles a double CD collection songs from (in my opinion) the greatest progressive rock band ever to come out of Canada! On these two discs are songs taken from some great albums such as All the world's a stage, Permanent waves, 2112, Moving Pictures,...
Pros: rush's masterpieces put into one album Cons: --------------
I went out and bought this album because i didn't know much about Rush, and Proggressive rock in general. It's a masterpiece of Rush's greatest recordings. They have been put down by every critic, but have been cheered on my millions of fans for over 20...
