It's not that bad Ed... a bit harsh-sounding, and there's a lot of distracting noise on the guitar at the intro...
I see what you mean by the tracking... the drums don't have enough presence for my tastes - not in the mix, but in the recorded sound.
Still, overall it's still pretty good.
I was listening to Rush lately after not having heard it in a long time... back in the late 70's and 80's when I first started hearing their stuff, I always hated their recordings - I always thought they sounded harsh and thin, yet people LOVED them!
I listened again now after many years, and with better ear-training, and man, I REALLY hate the way they sound recorded, but I still like the tunes!
