Rush's 1976 masterpiece 2112 is one of the greatest albums that the Canadian trio ever made and, along with 1981's Moving Pictures, it helped put Geddy Lee, Alex Lifeson and Neil Peart firmly in the Limelight. And, even if you have the album, perhaps you don't own the hologram edition of the record which you can currently get at Amazon with 25% off the price, with the online shopping giant cutting the price from £36.18 to £27.14.

So what exactly is the Hologram Edition on 2112? Well, all the album tracks as here such as the epic side-long title track, the wreathed in smoke classic A Passage To Bangkok and the rollicking Something For Nothing, but when you set the vinyl spinning, you'll see the Rush star from the album cover rotating around the centre label.

When Metallica guitarist Kirk Hammett hailed Rush as “the high priests of conceptual rock”, he was talking about the Canadian trio’s work in the ’70s - and specifically the album 2112.

The album was released in 1976 at a critical time in the band’s career. After their third album Caress Of Steel bombed, they were under heavy pressure from record label Mercury. But with their backs against the wall, they delivered a masterpiece.

In a 2016 interview with Classic Rock, Rush bassist, vocalist and keyboard player said: "2112 saved our career. There’s no question about that."

So if you're after a slice of rock music history with a neat hologram twist, this is a lovely deal that'll look great in any vinyl collection.
