While vacationing in Canada, my nephew Terry showed me his album collection which was small, but tasty. (He doesn't even have a record player...says he wants to wait until he can get a proper one...I don't get it, but he's got his principles and you have to respect that.)
Among his records was Rush's Hemispheres from 1978. Well, I've recently been getting into Rush in a more serious way, and seeing that album made me realize that of course I should be buying some Rush vinyl. Interesting though gay artwork, very much in the Pink Floyd/Hipgnosis vein, though in this case by Hugh Syme (look him up!), gatefold sleeve...what's not to like?
Sounds great, good guitar tones, lots of energy jumping through the speakers. I'd heard the album before, but it sounds especially good on record. You can't argue with a stone cold classic like La Villa Strangiato.
Good vinyl choice!
