Data Insight
The credit line goes back to its plainest form: Peart on every lyric, Lee and Lifeson on every piece of music, no exceptions anywhere on the record.
The first album after the split with Terry Brown, made in 1984 with Peter Henderson producing. The search for a producer dragged the sessions out.
