Thanks for showing the Love for the Canadian nerdy rock god trio. Be well, and take solace in the fact that RUSH has multiple albums full of awesome songs. As Ben Kenobi said to Luke Skywalker…”You’ve taken your first step into a larger world.” These three (not 5 or 6, which many people think are manifesting all the complex tunage) dudes will not disappoint you.

You just experienced, IMHO, the greatest drummer, guitarist and bassist ever. Individually. Put the three greatest together in a trio and you have the greatest rock/prog metal group in history. If the greatest bands ever are in the clouds, they are on the Moon! I rediscovered Rush (beyond the half dozen or so singles I heard on the radio back in the day) 2 1/2 years ago and now have 17 of 19 studio albums, and multiple live albums and videos. I spent tons of money and time upgrading my entire sound system just for Rush. I can barely listen to anyone else but them anymore. I'm just grateful I discovered their entire discography and how great this group is before I died. 53 years old when I rediscovered them, hopefully I have a few more years to continue to enjoy their music. I do regret not diving deeper into Rush decades ago and being able to see them live.

Neil Peart wasn't the original drummer; John Rutsey was. When they auditioned for a new drummer and he showed up, Geddy Lee said: "So he comes in and introduces himself, and he's very animated," Lee continues. "He sets up his drums and … once he gets the kit tuned up, he sits on the throne and he starts playing triplets. And oh my effin' Lord - it was like machine guns. "I had this shit-eating grin on my face, and I was looking at [guitarist Alex Lifeson], and Al was getting a bit miffed at me because I was getting too excited too quickly. I had promised him that I wouldn't make any decisions until we both talked about everybody afterwards. I was supposed to have a poker face, but how can you have a poker face when Neil Peart is playing drums for you?"

Three of the most accomplished musicians that you could hope for in just one band. And Neil Peart Peart, the drummer and lyricist, was one of the most prolific song writers of our time. You might not see eye to eye on his religious beliefs, but his grasp of humanity was strong. They have been my three favorite people since 1981. The music of my life. ❤❤❤ *edit I make a this bold suggestion to you. Find out who these men are/were (RIP Neil💔) as human beings before you go more down the rabbit hole. Watch a documentary made in 2010, by the name of Beyond the Lighted Stage. It will give you a greater appreciation for this band. You'll see and hear stuff you of course haven't seen or heard yet, but down the road as you get through their catalog, you'll be able the reconognize what you see and hear in the documentary. *

Before you dive too deep in the Rush rabbit hole I suggest listening to Spirit of radio, Limelight or Subdivisions (The drums on this particular song are outstanding). All three of these songs are from the early 1980's and were quite popular. Most of my personal favorites are pre 1980 especially an album called Hemispheres. I'm clearly showing my age, 66. Excellent reaction though, I really enjoyed it and what most Rush fans already know, how great these three gentlemen are.

Had a friend who could play alot of RUSH, good old times in high-school.

This is such a classic song, and the three members are all extremely gifted on their respective instruments. Drummer Neil Peart (RIP) is widely considered one of the best rock drummers of all time. The lead singer, Geddy Lee, is also the bassist, and also plays keyboards and foot pedals, sometimes all at once! Guitarist Alex Lifeson (who is Geddy's best friend since they were both 13 years old) is an incredible guitarist; whose solos always fit the song and are very emotive. At some point, I suggest checking out the live performance of ''Where's My Thing/Here it Is' live from Dallas, which includes both a bass solo and a drum solo. The song charges full speed ahead the entire time and is exhilarating to watch. Also, Neil writes the band's lyrics, while Geddy and Alex write the music.

Pure musicianship!!! - Working Man... Live in Cleveland from 2011 Time Machine Tour (original studio version was in 1974)...The pure sight and performance of three men in their upper 50's take control of the stage and perform and play like they were in their 20's. - YYZ…live from Rio in 2002 (instrumental)…original was 1981 - Xanadu...Live version 1981 Exit Stage Left tour...will leave you speechless from pure musicianship...original was 1977. - Freewill... Live from Snakes and Arrows Tour 2007 - original was 1980 - Best Intro Ever - Live version (R30 tour 2004) - various riffs from their 1970's songs leading into Spirit of Radio - original was 1980 - Limelight...studio version - original was 1981. - Closer to the Heart (Live 1998 Different Stages) - original was 1977 - Subdivisions...studio version or live version - original was 1982 - The Garden (Clockwork Angels tour live) - original was 2012 - Subdivisions...studio version or live version - original was 1982 - Fly by Night - original was 1975 - Leave that Thing Alone - Live in Cleveland from 2011 Time Machine Tour (Instrumental) - original was 1993 - Malignant Narcissism and Drum Solo - Live 2008 Snakes and Arrows Tour - original was 2007 - Also...Neil Peart's Drum Solo Live from Frankfurt 2004. He was The Professor...a pure musician and percussionist...not just a "drummer". Be ready to be amazed by not just his hand coordination...but most of all his foot coordination...basically his feet being completely individual in timing from his hands during segments of this performance. He was the master of this technique.

There is nothing better on KZitem than watching a musician listen to Rush for the first time. As a non-musian I love them and have from the start but to see people who understand music just fall in love with the sound is so satifying. Welcome to the club and prepare for a deep life long love affair with this band.

I love to hear musicians marvel at how often they switch between timing. 4/4, 3/4 etc.

Should get a look at them live. It is incredible that three guys can do all of that. Geddy Lee particularly- sings, terrific bass, synths with hands and feet. This song is typical Rush with a killer instrumental break in the middle in which all three of these incredible musicians GO OFF.

There’s a video of them in the studio playing this song. Check it out. Neil Peart, pronounced Peert( RIPJan 2020) is the drummer and wrote the lyrics to most if not all their songs. You GOT TO SEE ONE OF HIS DRUM SOLOS.

This is one of the few songs Neil collaborated with someone else on the lyrics. Py Dubois who played with a band called Max Webster. Max Webster and Rush toured together a lot back in the day until Max Webster broke up. (Their drummer passed IIRC)

As a drummer I understand that bond between bass players and drummers. It is the highest compliment when a Bass player enjoys the drummers work. It was a absolute treat to watch this reaction and see your appreciation for my drumming hero, I hope you go down this rabbit hole because you will NOT be disappointed. Spirit of radio is another Rush songs with lots of surprises!

Welcome to the Rush rabbit hole… ❤ Neil Peart is your favorite drummer’s favorite drummer. Neil isn’t just locked in on time, but he accents what the other guys are doing. He makes what everyone is playing much much bigger. He is the GOAT. And stopping to re-listen is and will always be a Rush fan must do, “I gotta hear that again” is what we do… even after 40+ years as a fan, I still do it too. If you focus on one thing you will experience a whole different song, focus on the drums, you hear some thing spectacular. You focus on the bass… you hear something special. You focus on the guitar, virtuoso… you listen to the singing… a whole different story… that is why we still listen to Rush. Want you mind blown? Xanadu from Exit… Stage Left video… I’m sure I am not the first to say it, but I hope you watch it. 😊

Try the instrumentals YYZ, and La Villa Strangiato, your mind will be blown! If you do do one of Neil’s drum solos, choose the one in Frankfurt, Germany, the one with a gazilion views. Heck , i’m even gonna give you the links for all three, cuz z that’s just the kinda cat i am. I just subscribed!

Rush was the soundtrack of my youth. 3 maestros who compliment each other. The more you listen, the more complex nuances you discover in the music. I have seen them live several times, their farewell tour was incredible. The drummer is Neil Peart, he is always in pocket, also, writes most of the lyrics.

In my humble opinion, the best rock trio, to every grace a stage. They were true masters of their instruments. Drummer, Neil Pearl, may he, R.I.P. One of the greatest drummers to have ever pounded the "skins". He also wrote the lyrics, for over 90% of Rush's songs. Alex Lifeson is still one of the best, lead guitarists alive. Add Getty Lee to complete the trio on Bass, keyboards and lead singer. Had the privilege of seeing them perform live in 1980, during the Permanent Waves Tour. May I suggest the song, "Spirit of Radio", from the Permanent Waves album. Glad to see you have discovered and enjoy the "genius" that was RUSH!

Funny watching someone listening to RUSH for the first time, when i have been listening to them since the early 70's, my favorite band and I would say top 5 in alltime rock bands, consist of Alex Lifeson guitar, in the alltime top 10 greatist guitarist... Geddy Lee bass, keyboards, and vocals in the top 10 alltime bass players... Neil Pert drummer and writes the great lyrics to all the songs top 3 alltime greatist drummer, the band was still playing until last year when sadly Neil passed away. they have so so many great albums and songs to listen to, enjoy.... MY SUGGESTION IS TO LISTEN TO "XANADU"
