Vinyl Re-release of Rush Debut Album April 15

Universal Music Enterprises is celebrating the 40-year anniversary of Rush’s debut album with a vinyl reissue of the original Moon Records release of the album.

The album releases April 15 and comes in a box with a lift-off top. It’s pressed on 200g, audiophile grade vinyl, from the original 1974 analog stereo masters, cut to copper plates using direct metal mastering at Abbey Road Studios.

The package includes the original Moon Records jacket art, complete with the original MN-100-A/B Matrix etching, and a 16’x 22′ reproduction of the first Rush promo poster, three 5’x7′ lithographs of Geddy Lee, Alex Lifeson, and original drummer John Rutsey, a 12’x 12′ Rush Family Tree poster, and a card for a free digital download of the newly remastered release.

“Rush’s unique style and sound continue to evolve and push the envelope of rock into new territories,” the promotional material says, “gaining legions of new fans along the way. After a four decade journey, in 2013 Rush was recognized for their immeasurable impact and influence in rock and roll and were inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame to the delight of fans and critics alike.”
