Rush Through Time (1978)

Released in Europe by the German affiliate of Polygram after the success of 2112, the album was intended as an introdution of the band to radio stations. The band had no input into the album and didn’t have kind words for it. (See What to Make of Rush Through Time?)

“The fact that they are my favorite band doesn’t keep me from seeing the obvious negatives to this album. . . . It doesn’t even come off as a “best of” collection, as many of the tracks feel like they were randomly chosen from albums that had a lot more to offer.”—Hastrmich on Prog Archives (edited)
