"... serves up a dose of good hard rock highlighted by the often Robert Plant-like lead vocals of Geddy Lee and the powerful guitar work of Alex Lifeson and solid drumming from John Rutsey."
- Billboard
"... even if Rush shows the band in a relatively early stage of development, the singular determination and commitment to craft that helped make them Rock and Roll Hall of Famers is very much on display in these eight tracks. It was all onward and upward from here."
- UltimateClassicRock.com
Rush's debut album recorded with original drummer John Rutsey, released in 1974, foreshadows the characteristic sound that would mark the band's mature style. The influence of hard rock bands such as Led Zeppelin and Cream can be heard on many of the tracks including Finding My Way and Working Man. This is the 2015 remastered version of the album.
