Rush
is the
debut studio album by
Canadian Rock band
It was released on
March 18, 1974,
in Canada by
Moon Records,
the group's own label,
before it was released
internationally
by Mercury Records
later that year.
Recorded five years after
the band's formation,
this first release
shows much of the
hard rock sound
typical of many of the
popular rock bands
emerging earlier
in the decade.
Rush were fans of
such bands as
Led Zeppelin,
Yes
and
Cream,
and these influences
can be heard
in most of the
songs on the album.
Original drummer
John Rutsey
performed all drum parts
on the album,
but was unable
to go on
extended tours
because of
complications
with his diabetes
and so he retired
from the band
after the album
was released.
Rutsey worked on
lyrics for the album,
but never submitted them
to the other members
of the band.
The lyrics were
instead entirely
composed by
vocalist/bassist
Geddy Lee
and guitarist
Alex Lifeson.
Rutsey was soon
replaced by
Neil Peart,
who served as
both drummer
and primary lyricist
on all
subsequent
Rush albums.
