Rush: Cygnus X-1 (180g) Vinyl 12" (Record Store Day)

Limited edition pressing for Record Store Day 2017! Rush's iconic A Farewell To Kings reaches the four decade mark this year, and to kick off the commemorations Books I & II of "Cygnus X-1" share the same piece of wax for the first time. Initially released with "Book I" closing out A Farewell To Kings and "Book II" opening the follow up Hemispheres, the two pieces are united for the first time. And together they make up one nice slice of Canadian prog rock! Released by Mercury on 180 gram vinyl housed in a full color sleeve.
