Pictures of rush1/2/2024 ![]() Of course, those on a budget could grab just the CDs or records but those wanting it all could shell out $300 for the entire lot. Then word trickled out that indeed a grandiose release was planned, a year late, but still. Last year, the actual 40th anniversary of Moving Pictures, I recall some type of minor re-release of the album which I thought odd considering the small hype and promotional merchandise to celebrate the smash album. Not sure how they got Peart’s autograph since he passed more than two years ago, however, some language implied facsimile signatures, but the Backstage Club marketed the collectible as authentically signed which is no longer available. Nothing exceptionally collectible in the Moving Pictures 40 th Anniversary box set though if you acted quickly upon its release last week (April 15th) you could have grabbed a very limited edition (I think just 10) model Red Barchetta, sold separately, with the shadow box backing featuring signatures of Geddy Lee, Alex Lifeson and Neil Peart. The super deluxe box set features all sorts of goodies with smaller options available and the original album remastered for who knows how many times now. Thus my reason to pass on purchasing the Moving Pictures 40 th Anniversary release commemorating Rush’s biggest selling album. After the last box set I purchased it dawned on me, again, that I’ve given enough to the Estate of Rush over the years and all these box sets will simply gather dust only to remind me of years gone by. Coooooool! Then, after a round or two of playtime, forever lost somewhere in a closet never to see the light of day again. ![]() Though it would be neat, I suppose, to eventually have a shelf or shelves filled with all of the planned 40th anniversary box sets of Rush albums those too would likely get the childhood toy received at Christmas treatment. I opened them once, looked through the contents, boxed everything back up and there they sit on the shelf unopened since they arrived in accordance with the 40 year anniversary of the said album release. The Rush Rediscovered box set, and the 40th anniversary super deluxe editions of A Farewell to Kings, Hemispheres and Permanent Waves. On a shelf, above my desk, in my “office” sits four boxes filed in like books. ![]()
