  That they picked Jacob's Ladder and Entre Nous as the open/close music is wonderful...

  "Time will tell and I think they have endured the test of time." I agree, Rush has. Rush is timeless, classic.

  I bought this album when I was a kid and just stared at it. "What does that mean" and "why is there some lady walking in a war zone?". I asked this while listening to the entire album. These questions made me even more inquisitive about the band and their music.  Still to this day I look at the cover and remember buying it at Sound Warehouse (Houston, TX) thinking about that day just standing in the aisle wondering "whatever this is... I need to buy it!" Best choice I ever made. Rush has, and still is, my favorite band of all time.

  Permanent waves is one of the albums that changed my understanding of music. Natural Science is an underrated masterpiece 🤟😍

  Man. I couldn&apos;t imagine Rush without Hugh Syme. I can remember listening to The Necromancer through the headphones while lying on my bed, staring at all the faces and bodies hidden in the tree and river on the back of the Caress of Steel album cover... Now I&apos;m not saying that I might have been a little bit high while doing this, I&apos;m just saying that, uhh...<br>But anyway, every time I got a new album, my friends and I would look at every little detail just to see if there was anything strange going on. And there usually was. It was expected.<br>Hugh Syme is a badass. But his art painted him in a different light. He&apos;s a regular looking dude. I expected to see someone that looked like Yousuf Karsh or Leonado da Vinci or something.

  Album covers of this era were true works of art just as the music they contained and this one is exceptional! RUSH is and always will be the best group in the galaxy!

  I didn’t even see the tidal wave. I thought she was posing in front of a mushroom cloud. Awesome

  So he was Moving Pictures when he created the cover.

  This another reason why vinyl was great. Anice 12&quot; square cover and the gatefold, etc. The art was part of the album and helped make the music more memorable.

  I honestly like Permanent Waves more than Moving Pictures.
