<p><b>Part two of the definitive biography of the rock ’n’ roll kings of the North — covering Rush’s most iconic and popular albums, <i>Moving Pictures</i> and <i>Power Windows</i></b></p>
<p><b>Includes two full-color photo inserts, with 16 pages of the band on tour and in the studio</b></p>
<p>In the follow-up to <i>Anthem: Rush in the ’70s</i>, Martin Popoff brings together canon analysis, cultural context, and extensive firsthand interviews to celebrate Geddy Lee, Alex Lifeson, and Neil Peart at the peak of their persuasive power. Rush was one of the most celebrated hard rock acts of the ’80s, and the second book of Popoff’s staggeringly comprehensive three-part series takes readers from <i>Permanent Waves</i> to <i>Presto</i>, while bringing new insight to <i>Moving Pictures</i>, their crowning glory. <i>Limelight: Rush in the ’80s</i> is a celebration of fame, of the pushback against that fame, of fortunes made — and spent …</p>
