Fly by Night is the second studio album by Canadian rock band Rush, released in February 1975 on Mercury Records. It was the first Rush album to showcase elements of progressive rock for which the band has become known. It was also the first to feature lyricist and drummer Neil Peart. In March 1974, the second Rush line-up consisted of guitarist Alex Lifeson, drummer John Rutsey, and singer and bassist Geddy Lee released their self-titled debut album.

This was the first Rush album to feature drummer Neil Peart. In addition to drumming duties, Peart also took on the job of lyricist by default, leading the band to adopt a more literary lyrical style that differed significantly from the debut album. The songs "By-Tor and the Snow Dog" and "Rivendell" are examples of the inclusion of fantasy themes into Rush's music.

Beneath, Between and Behind Lyrics. Ten score years ago, defeat the kingly foe A wondrous dream came into being Tame the trackless waste, no virgin land left chaste All shining eyes, but never seeing. About Beneath, Between and Behind. This song, from 1975’s Fly By Night, is largely a poetic history of the United States. In it, lyricist and drummer Neil Peart lauds the humble beginnings of the nation, but argues that beneath, between and behind the proud history their shadows bow in fear. The last chorus also protests the the country was undergoing during the period the song was written.

Fly by night, Cardiff. Showcasing wines from across the world all served by the glass  .

Fly by Night is the second studio album by Canadian rock band Rush, released on February 15, 1975 by Mercury Records and Anthem Records. Its total length is 37:38. The band's lineup included vocalist and bassist Geddy Lee, guitarist Alex Lifeson, and drummer Neil Peart. John Rutsey performed all drum parts on the last album, but was unable to go on extended tours because of complications with his diabetes and was let go by the band after that album was released. But, on Fly by Night, they use a more progressive rock sound. Due to Neil Peart's inclusion in the band, they adopted a more literary lyrical style that would serve them well on later albums. The album peaked at number 113 on the Billboard 200 charts and went Platinum in the . The strengths of this album are the progressive style, the guitar and bass work, and the impressive vocal range of Geddy Lee.
