Collectionzz has teamed up once again with popular artists the Ames Bros for the next poster in their Iconic by Collectionzz screen print series commemorating another legendary moment in music history! Check out this striking Rush screen print celebrating the 45th anniversary of the acclaimed band’s second studio album, Fly by Night. Vinyl aficionados may recognize this design featuring a snow owl with piercing eyes, which was inspired by the original album cover.
In December 1974, Rush recorded their second album Fly by Night with their new drummer, Neil Peart. With the addition of The Professor, “suddenly, it was a very different band” said Geddy Lee. “Once we had Neil with us, so much changed in the way we wrote music and the way we presented it. And from that point on, it felt like we could do anything...” Alex Lifeson agreed, “in many ways, the second album felt like a new start for the band.” Rush supported Fly by Night with a 70 city US and Canadian tour from February to June 1975 opening for rock behemoths Kiss and Aerosmith, which also included their first major headlining shows.
