Another favorite of true Rush fans, this sixth studio album, released in 1978, once more explored fantasy and science fiction themes in Neil Peart's lyrics. The final track, the ambitious nine-and-a-half minute "La Villa Strangiato," was the band's first instrumental. The album peaked at #47 on the Billboard charts, and was the group's fourth consecutive gold album in the U.S., featuring the singles "The Trees" and "Circumstances." "Their influence is undeniable...and their legacy is that of a band that stayed true to themselves no matter how uncool they may have seemed to anyone. I think it's safe to say that Rush are indeed a band that has balls...and they've always been cool."—Dave Grohl inducting Rush into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Cygnus X-1 Book II: Hemispheres (18:07) Prelude Apollo Bringer Of Wisdom Dionysus Bringer Of Love Armageddon The Battle Of Heart And Mind Cygnus Bringer Of Balance The Sphere A Kind Of Dream Circumstances 3:42 The Trees 4:46 La Villa Strangiato (9:36) Buenos Nochas, Mein Froinds!
