RUSH Moving Pictures hails from 2022 and is a SEALED 40th Anniversary Edition Half-Speed Master 180 gram LP with a Lyric Sheet housed in a gatefold sleeve.  Rush's complex songwriting and musical virtuosity reached new heights on their eighth studio album, Moving Pictures (1981) and it became the band's biggest selling album in the U.S., rising to No. 3 on the Billboard charts. Remaining Rush's most popular and commercially successful studio recording, Moving Pictures followed a more radio-friendly format and includes several signature tracks, including "Tom Sawyer," "Limelight," "Red Barchetta," and the band's highly praised instrumental, "YYZ," which is the IATA airport identification code of Toronto Pearson International Airport. The album cover is a monument to triple entendre. Movers are physically moving pictures, people are crying because the pictures passing by are emotionally "moving," and the back cover depicts a film crew making a "moving picture" of the whole scene. 40th Anniversary Edition cut at half-speed on 180-gram vinyl and wrapped in a premium tip-on gatefold jacket with printed sleeve and 1 of 6 hand-drawn lyric sheets by Neil Peart.
