Obviously one of my favorite albums by Rush. It was a complete change up from the heavy metal/blues rock sound and style of the Rush before, with the addition of lyrics and drums by Neil Peart to the band.
I've always viewed the album Caress Of Steel as a prelude to their album 2112. You can't have one without the other. The single Necromancer is actually a three-part story in a one 10 minute song. Quite revolutionary an innovative during the time of its release back during the early 70s.
