Rush's Moving Pictures short listed for inaugural Slaight Family Polaris Heritage Prize

Rush's Moving Pictures was one of 21 albums from the last fourty years which have been short listed for Canada's inaugural Slaight Family Polaris Heritage Prize.  The votes are in, and Moving Pictures was not among the winners.   According to Billboard.com, "albums by Joni Mitchell, Cowboy Junkies, Sloan and Peaches have been chosen by the public as the inaugural winners of Canada’s Slaight Family Polaris Heritage Prize.  A five-titled short list per time period was initially selected by a jury of 25 people from the music media and industry before the lists were released to the public for them to vote online.  They chose: Blue by Joni Mitchell ('60s & '70s), The Trinity Session by Cowboy Junkies ('80s), Twice Removed by Sloan (90s) and The Teaches of Peaches by Peaches ('00s, 2000-2005)." - Thanks to RushFanForever for the headsup!
