Rush's latest live album - Snakes & Arrows Live - is officially released tomorrow in North America and has already been released in Europe. The album was recorded at the Ahoy Arena on October 16 and 17, 2007 in Rotterdam, Holland and contains the entire 27-song setlist from last year's tour. John over at Cygnus-x1.net obtained a preview copy of the CD and scanned the contents which you can check out at this link. There are a lot of great live photos of the band and the album has been dedicated to Rush's former publicist Shelly Nott who died earlier this year. You can listen to 30-second preview clips of all the tracks at Amazon.com at this link. You can also listen to the one-hour world premier radio special at this link.
