Album Description and Information

Rush‎– Permanent Waves12-inch Vinyl LP

on the Mercury Record Label ‎– 9100 071 from 1980.

Initial pressing the News paper cover that is blowing in the wind reads "Dewei Defeats Truman". On later copies the headline was blanked out. Apparently, the Chicago Tribune who erroneously published this headline objected. 

On this copy the cover is the blanked out version.

Permanent Waves is the seventh studio album by Canadian rock band Rush, released on January 14, 1980 through Anthem Records. The album charted at No. 3 in Canada and the UK, and No. 4 in the United States. By March 1980, the album was certified Gold by the RIAA for selling 500,000 copies. It became the fastest-selling Rush album up to that point, before Moving Pictures (1981)surpassed it the following year. Permanent Waves was later certified Platinum in November 1987 for selling over one million copies.
