If I were to get a Rush pinball machine I'd want the song selection to be primarily drawn from their 1st album.

I remember when Rush' iconic debut album was released in 1974. I was 14 years old and was riding in the back seat of my best friend's big brother's 1967 Buick Skylark when "In The Mood" came on the radio. It was all fresh and the 1st time we had heard of Rush.

We drove right down to the mall and I bought the 8-track tape and played the living crap out of it.

As far as I'm concerned their 1st album was by-far their best. I remember when 2112 came out. Still OK but not the same raw edge that their 1st album had.

You can say the same about a lot of great bands. They had their entire lives to come up with the material on their debut album.
