Rush-"Hemispheres" (1978)

If with the album "2112" Rush had begun the period dedicated to conceptual and progressive albums, in the next two albums "A Farewell To Kings" and this "Hemispheres" the band repeats this formula and they even become more pretentious as they predominate by above the melodies the virtuosity of its three members.
"Hemispheres" contains one of his greatest pieces of his entire career, the suite "Cygnus X-1", twenty minutes of great epic progressive hard rock, in which the technical capacity and instrumental skills of Neil Peart, Alex Lifeson and Geddy Lee they are amazing.
Other compositions like "La Villa Strangiato", (fantastic instrumental theme), and "The Trees" become classics of the band.
"Hemispheres" remains the culmination of the band's most essential stage and their umpteenth masterpiece.
