UPDATE - 4/12@7:37PM: Reader Will C provided a clip from MTV's premier showing of the Distant Early Warning video where VJ Mark Goodman provides some trivia about the video shoot (the video itself has been edited out). You can check out the clip at this link and I've also included it down below the music video.

25 years ago today on April 12th, 1984, Rush released their 10th studio album Grace Under Pressure. The album marked a turning point in Rush's career in that it was the first album where the band used a producer other than Terry Brown, namely Peter Henderson. It was recorded in late 1983 and early 1984 at Le Studio in Morin Heights, Quebec. Grace Under Pressure peaked at #10 on the Billboard charts and was certified Platinum on June 26, 1984. The album's first single was Distant Early Warning which hit #1 on the US Mainstream Rock chart. Here's the video:
