In case you missed it: About two months ago, Rush put their live video "Grace Under Pressure" reissue on YouTube - it's about 40 minutes longer than the original VHS tape release!
It looks like Rush is doing a lot of PR these days, which is no surprise, since they're preparing to go on tour with new drummer Anika Nilles. They popped up the Juno Awards, just had two interviews with Rick Beato, ... Among their advertising actions is also a reissue of their classic "Grace Under Pressure" live audio and video, originally recorded at Maple Leaf Gardens, Toronto, 1984.
Amazingly, the new video isn't just a digitally enhanced version of the original release, or subsequent DVD versions, but contains a lot of "new" content: Where the VHS had only about 60 minutes of footage, which is clearly shorter than a Rush concert is supposed to be, the reissue is more than 100 minutes long, it's the full performance, containing more Rush music!
Needless to say, with a contemporary new Rush release, picture and sound quality is probably the best you can get out of the source material. (Wow, "Witch Hunt" sounds very epic in this one!) But what really stands out are "Subdivisions", "The Body Electric", "Between The Wheels", a couple of other songs, and some proper drumming by Neil Peart we didn't get to see and hear previously.
Great stuff!

Thanks, Rush! Und herzlichen Glückwunsch, Anika!
