Caress Of Steel (Remastered) (Import)
Caress of Steel is the third studio album by Canadian rock band Rush, first released on September 24, 1975, by Mercury Records.
It was recorded immediately after the band concluded touring in support of their previous album, Fly By Night, and marked a development in the group’s sound, moving from the blues-based hard rock style of their debut towards progressive rock. Songs such as “The Necromancer” furthered Rush’s advancement into narrative-driven, fantasy-based compositions, while “The Fountain of Lamneth” was their first prog-rock “epic” to span an entire side of vinyl. Other tracks like “Bastille Day” and “Lakeside Park” became staples of the band’s live setlists.
Features 20-bit remastering from the original master tapes and enhanced packaging faithful to the original LP release.
