Rush: The mid 80s
Having discovered Rush when they released Caress of Steel in 1975 and immediately becoming their biggest fanboy on the planet for the next several years, I had, at the time, really felt let down by their mid 80s change of direction.
In hindsight I think that the trio of Signals, Grace Under Pressure, and Power Windows are their creative zenith.
Let's talk Rush.
Did ya know that only The Beatles and The Rolling Stones have more consecutive gold albums than The Rush do?
