The promotional album used a unique mastering process in which concentric grooves were inscribed so that different material would be played depending on where the stylus was put down on the record's surface. Contents.Recording and production Side two of Exit. Stage Left was recorded from June 10–11, 1980 at in, during the band's supporting tour for their seventh studio album,. The remaining three sides were recorded on March 27, 1981 at in, Canada during the subsequent tour of their eighth album,.After the 1981 tour, the band retreated to in in, Canada to edit and mix the recordings they had made on the two tours, which Peart noted totalled over 50 reels of two-inch tape. The band went through the material to find the best performances for inclusion for a live album.
They found a technical fault or a wrong note was enough to affect an otherwise acceptable performance, so they opted to edit the faults using parts from the collection of tapes. In 1993, Lee revealed the band had to add in new sections in the studio to correct passages with out of tune guitars. Neither member is credited to the album's production, who left the duty to their longtime producer,. During the production, Rush wrote and recorded ', a new song that would be released on their following studio album,.Upon the album's completion, Peart said the group were happier with Exit. Stage Left than with their first live album, noting that the latter suffered from uneven sound quality.
In subsequent years however, Lee developed a more critical view of Exit. Stage Left, noting that the group tried to make it sound 'too perfect' in part by reducing the levels of audience noise, while Lifeson for his part thought the album sounded too clean and not as raw as All the World's a Stage, and as a consequence the band aimed to reach a 'middle ground' between the two with, Rush's third live release. Nevertheless, the album remains a fan favorite.Rush performs a short rendition of ' before 'Jacob's Ladder'. 'Broon's Bane' is a short classical guitar arrangement performed by Lifeson as an extended intro to 'The Trees.'
The song is named after Terry Brown, nicknamed 'Broon' by the band. The song is not featured on any other live or studio recording by Rush. Also on the album, Lee refers to Brown as 'T.C. Broonsie' when introducing 'Jacob's Ladder.' The original CD issue removed 'A Passage to Bangkok', as CDs could only hold 75 minutes at the time.

Before the remastered version was released, the same live version of 'A Passage to Bangkok' was released on the compilation in 1990.The second verse of 'Beneath, Between, & Behind' is omitted.
On 'La Villa Strangiato', the introductory classical guitar solo from the original recording is played on electric guitar and doubled in length, Lee sings part of a nursery rhyme in during the 'Danforth and Pape' section (the liner notes include a translation of his words), and a short bass and percussion solo is added before the 'Monsters! (Reprise)' section.Title The title comes from the catchphrase of the cartoon character. The term 'stage left' is a stage direction used in to identify the left side of a theater from the point of view of the performer, as opposed to the point of view of the audience.The whole title came from a character in an American cartoon called Snagglepuss. He's a great little creature, a lion, and every time there's trouble he flees, uttering 'Exit. Stage left' or 'Exit. Stage right'. But the fact of the matter was that the album cover picture was taken from stage left.
And coincidentally that's the direction in which Snagglepuss runs most of the time. — Neil Peart, Jam!
