Google \"Alex Lifeson Beyond Borders\" for various web pages about this project.
A wonderful masterpiece by these four world famous Canadian guitar players from separate genres coming together to blend their distinct styles into one continuous piece. I am posting this as a Rush fan, so I'll be honest - it's all about Alex :) As we know, Alex' solo style has changed over the years. This 1987 recording gives us that *bleeding* Alex Lifeson tone we all love from around the 'Hold Your Fire' era. Those wails, those screams, those blistering squeezed notes... even though I will show notations throughout the piece, there is no doubt which featured performer is Alex Lifeson.
