One kick ass behind the scenes documentary!Classic Albums is at it again, by releasing an expanded version of the VH-1 Classic show's feature on Rush.  This episode focuses on two of the greatest Rush records ever: 2112 and Moving Pictures.  Hot off the heels of the Rush documentary Beyond the Lighted Stage, Classic Albums has released a nice companion to this now legendary documentary.  An interesting thing about this DVD, was that it seemed like some of the footage from the this classic albums special, was used in the movie.  I need to check that.  The classic albums series digs deep in to these classic records and gives a little more insight, as to how these records were created.  The DVD is full of interviews and classic footage of the band.  As I always say, the BluRay version gives the viewer a sense of being in the room with the artist, which comes off pretty surreal.  It was very cool seeing each member play their instrument separately as they played along with the original studio track.  The DVD is packed with approx. 54min. of bonus footage that was not originally aired.  Killer DVD!

Bottom Line: A must for Rush fans.  Wanna see how two of the greatest rock records of all time came together?  Then check this one out.
