One of the best albums of the year.
author: Heavy Harmonies
This is a very good CD. Actually is one of the best albums of 2004. It's not easy to listen to such music these days... the music here is a perfect mix of 70s and 80s classic rock, AOR and pomp rock. Just listen to the hymn "Wrap Me Up" and you will be excited! M and R Rush is an old band that re-united some years ago. Try this album out and you won't be dissapointed. I just can't wait to listen to the band's new album!!!

M&R Rush Has done it again!!!
author: John Wasserman
The Chicagoland band proves once again why they are the biggest draw around! Their super-tight four part harmonies and classic pomp sound with a new millenium twist make "The Thrill of the Chase" a must for rock fans everwhere. This disc stays true to rock and roll roots featuring searing duel guitar solos and catchy keyboard hooks. The highlight of this disc are "Wrap Me Up" which is reminscent of the early days of Styx and the re-release of "Rock and Roll Chicago" which has a UFO flavor to it. This disc will take you back to a time when songwriting, production, and arrangement were paramount in the music industry.

If we agree that every good song is combination of well incorporated / balanced

If we agree that every good song is combination of well incorporated / balanced melody, rhythm and interpretation, M&R Rush truly managed to meet these expectations. Despite the fact that their music is reminiscence of 70-ties or 80-ties, they are deserving full attention of nowadays music lovers. The album, The Thrill of the Chase, which is subject of this review, has no weak moments at all. Songs have clear strategy - no matter whether they were looked from the side of experienced musicians, studio workers or regular music consumers. I believe that every radio station in the world would not hesitate to airplay their songs. My advice is - listen this album and you will enjoy every moment of it.
