VH1 Classic is currently airing a new Rush special, called "Boxed Set: Rush." It features clips from Rush videos, focusing mainly on the early '80s (through Power Windows) and the '90s period.
Interestingly, the show includes clips from the video for "Show, Don't Tell", from the Presto album, and "Half The World" from Test For Echo--two videos that I'd never seen before! The show jumps over Hold Your Fire, Counterparts and Vapor Trails, but goes all the way up to "Far Cry" from Snakes and Arrows.
The show does not include complete songs--that would prevent them from showing commercials for Enzyte and Cialis. However, the song excerpts are interspersed with interview footage with Geddy Lee, reminiscing about different songs and video shoot experiences.
The VH1 Classic website has links to all 18 interview clips (they are all about a minute or so long) and of course, all the Rush videos you could possibly want. We will try to ignore the fact that "Marathon" from A Show of Hands has been re-titled Marathon Man.
Is it...safe?
