Transcript: "Exit...Stage Left (album review)" - Circus, February 28, 1982

With a new tour upon us, many of us are also looking forward to the obligatory live album (coming this fall or next spring, perhaps?).  I've just transcribed Circus magazine's review of the Exit Stage Left album from their February 28, 1982 issue, the live album which many Rush fans at one time deemed to be their best. The review is written by John Swenson, who would later write the Chronicles linernotes essay; he concludes "If you haven't listened much to the group, Exit is a perfect place to start. If you like Rush already this is the record you've been waiting for."
