Geddy Lee, Alex Lifeson, and Neil Peart form Rush, which is in my opinion, the greatest Canadian rock band ever. Ok, maybe they’re tied with The Hip. But top two none-the-less.
Songs like Tom Sawyer, Lakeside Park, Limelight, and YYZ showcase their immense talent. Peart’s unspeakable understanding and connection with his drums set the stage for Lifeson’s face melting riffs and solos, balancing perfectly with Lee’s tight bass lines, and keys. Although their sound may have changed throughout the years, the spirit of the music always remained the same.
Unfortunately Rush is no longer, however their music lives on whether it’s a classic vinyl, or your favourite music streaming platform; and in the hearts and minds of fans lucky enough to observe the spectacle first hand.
