Rush's sophomore release Fly By Night will be turning 40 next year, specifically on February 15th, and it now seems possible that Rush may re-issue the album on vinyl to celebrate the occasion. A new listing for the album has just appeared on the United Kingdom version of Amazon. The release date is set for January 26, 2015 however no other details have been provided.

Given Rush reissued their debut album earlier this year to celebrate its 40th anniversary, it's certainly possible that Fly By Night, which also marks the first album featuring Neil Peart, may receive a similar treatment.

We'll have more news once it becomes available which, given the January release date, should be available soon.

Thanks to Ed from RushIsABand for passing along the news.
