Rush Through Time is a compilation album by Rush, released in Europe as a picture disc only in 1979.^[2] The compilation contained selections from the band's second, third, fourth, and fifth studio albums (Fly by Night, Caress of Steel, 2112, and A Farewell to Kings). The album was subsequently repackaged as a standard vinyl album with a colour sleeve and updated graphics on the back cover in 1982.^[3] (According to Rush drummer Neil Peart, the album was compiled by the German branch of Polygram Records without the band's input.)
