 Rush truly is 'The Spirit of Radio' January 9, 2010

If you happen to be a longtime Rush fan like I am, then you will appreciate and love this compilation of their greatest hits. There is something in this double album for everyone, as it encompasses the best songs from Rush's early years all the way up to the hits from the '90s. My personal favorites such as Limelight, Time Stands Still, Red Barchetta, and The Spirit of Radio were included, among other great songs. I'm so glad I decided to buy this cd. It was well worth it.
PERFECT!! August 9, 2010

Awesome music, but crappy compilation and sequencing July 7, 2009

Ostensibly a career spanning summary of Rush's recordings for the Mercury label, "Chronicles" seems like a chance for PolyGram to cash in after the group departed for the Atlantic label in 1989, but overall it works to a degree charting the group's growth and evolution over a 15 year span. And while that's fine for a casual listener or someone looking for a starting point, it can be disorienting for a longtime fan accustomed to their album sequencing to hear a track like "Freewill" transition to "The Spirit of Radio." The result is somewhat jarring and feels wrong. That occurs frequently here and fans used to the sequencing on their albums are not going to like that; further it smacks of the lack of involvement the group probably had in putting this compilation together. "Chronicles" does add live tracks that does show the band's evolution and growth from hard rock to progressive rock to synthesized rock. Fans of Rush aren't likely to buy "Chronicles" as they likely already have their previous recordings, and believe me, they'll enjoy the more familiar sequencing, so "Chronicles" likely will appeal to newer fans or casual listeners. As for me I'd rather listen to "Power Windows" or "Permanent Waves" in their original format. "Chronicles" is a nice starting point but not much more.
