Rush Classical Tribute
Steve Rothery and Adrian Smith make guest appearances
The music of Rush is getting a classical makeover in a new recording by the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, with guest appearances by Marillon guitarist Steve Rothery and Iron Maiden guitarist Adrian Smith.
The album is a compilation of some of the most popular Rush songs, including the 2112 Overture, which you can listen to here.
