#75 for 1975

"Hot on the heels of Fly by Night, Rush's progressive sound was born, with two sprawling complex epic tracks at the end of the album alongside hard hitting opener Bastille Day. For me the two shorter middle tracks are filler but it was still the start of Rush's peak prog era." (bartyMJ, Awesome, 5M ago)

"Certainly the most fun that Rush has ever been for me. The only real problem with it is that occasionally the flow in The Fountain of Lamneth is rather lacking." (TGM_Orb, Awesome, almost 17y ago)

"Album number three from the greatest band to grace these ears. Whilst their first two albums were very good, Caress of Steel is their first excellent album, and yet it still only foreshadows what is yet to come." (rushfan4, Awesome, 17y ago)
