Description

Title: A Farewell To Kings (40th Anniversary Edition)
Label: Mercury
Product Type: COMPACT DISCS

"Closer to the Heart"-Rush's pivotal 1977 LP that introduced their first hit, "Closer to the Heart," even as it saw them further their prog-rock ambition with epics like "Xanadu" and "Cygnus X-1"-turns 40 in grand style. The quadruple-vinyl edition (double gatefold, 180-gram, with a 12,000 word essay) combines the complete album (2015 remaster) with Rush's 1978 Hammersmith Odeon concert: the aforementioned songs plus "A Farewell to Kings," "Something for Nothing," "Fly by Night," "Cinderella Man" and more including more than 30 minutes of previously unreleased music. You'll also hear the instrumental outtake "Cygnus X-2 Eh" and these newly recorded covers: "Xanadu" Dream Theater, "Closer to the Heart" Big Wreck, "Cinderella Man" Trews and "Madrigal" Alain Johannes. The editions with 3 CDs include all that, too, and the super-deluxe edition brings you the 3 CDs, 4 LPs and a Blu-ray disc featuring the 1977 promo videos of "Closer to the Heart," "A Farewell to Kings" and "Xanadu" plus two spectacular-sounding 24-bit/96kHz mixes of the album: the 2015 stereo remaster and Steven Wilson's 5.1 surround mix. Super-deluxe owners also get a velvet pouch, neck chain, two lithographs, a 12" turntable mat with artwork by Hugh Syme (Rush's longtime art director) and, to take us back to the time of the album's original release, a reproduction of the original "A Farewell to Kings" tour program!
