Rush Moving Pictures (1981, Anthem Records) is one of the defining albums of the classic rock era and the fastest-selling record in Rush's catalogue. It reached No. 1 in Canada and No. 3 in both the U.S. and U.K., was certified Platinum just two months after release, and has since crossed five million copies sold. In 2020, Rolling Stone ranked it among the 500 Greatest Albums of All Time. The album features three iconic singles in "Tom Sawyer," "Limelight," and "Vital Signs," plus the Grammy-nominated instrumental "YYZ." This pressing was remastered from the original analogue masters on heavy vinyl as part of the Rush 40 celebration.
For collectors, an encapsulated pressing of Moving Pictures is a way to own one of rock's most celebrated albums exactly as it left the source: untouched, undisplayed, and permanently protected from the handling and environmental exposure that affect every open copy over time.
