This is the re-mastered re-issue of Rush's 1996 album TEST FOR ECHO.

Reviews:

''Test for Echo'' is the sixteenth studio album by Canadian rock band Rush, released in 1996 (see 1996 in music). The album marks the final Rush work prior to the events in Neil Peart's life that put the band on hiatus for several years. Peart recorded a majority of his drum tracks for the album using traditional grip, after receiving drum lessons from jazz instructor Freddie Gruber.

The cover denotes the Inukshuk which is a stone figure in the shape of a human used to mark a food cache or hunting ground. The word is taken from Inuk meaning human and Shuk meaning substitute.

The title track reached #1 on the Mainstream Rock chart. Like the album before it, ''Test for Echo'' showed "alternative" influences (e.g. "Test for Echo," "Driven," "Time and Motion"). "Driven" became a bass showcase for bassist Geddy Lee during live performances, while "Resist" was rearranged into an acoustic folk song on the ''Vapor Trails'' and ''R30'' tours. - Wikipedia
