Rush is my favorite band, and Neil’s drumming and lyrics always looms large in my mind. Neil’s passing was a gut punch and was a profound loss for me and all fans of Rush. RIP Neil Peart.
An AMAZING drummer and lyricist, who never ceased to inspire and motivate anybody that heard Rush's music! RIP PROFESSOR
Great piece on a legendary drummer. Thank you. The "Spirit of Radio" lives on ......
RUSH WORLDS GREATEST 3 PIECE ORCHESTRA🥁🎸🎸🎙🎼🎵🎶 I was lucky to see them live 21 times, even got NEILS PEARTS autograph.
RUSH ON😊
Neil has marked an epoch in drumming history. Never tire of listening to him in interviews explain his approach to drumming. Neil was a very genuine soul. He will be missed by those of us that had seen him live and for those that will come to know of his legend into the future, they will be inspired and changed. Thanks to Neil and Rush and thank you for sharing! Cheers
I'm in my sixties now, and I'm just now starting to realize what an awesome gift it was to witness Rush evolving in real time.
Check out The Warning. They have given many of us that same feeling all over again.
I can't begin to describe how proud we feel, as people of the musical community are here in Canada of the talents of the late Neil Peart.
His musicianship and literary skills held no boundaries.
Neil wasn’t a drummer. He was a world class percussionist, master lyricist and best selling author. RIP Professor.
I love the enthusiasm in Neil's voice and drumming. We have so much in common, surely we could have been friends.. Thank you RUSH for all the shapes and colors.
Things changed for Neil in 1978 when he added the infamous subscribe button to his kit.
Thata exactly right.
I've never understood why Caress Of Steel was so maligned by critics and fans alike. It is one of my favorite Rush albums. It was an integral part of their growth and in my opinion, did most of the heavy lifting from 'what they were' to 'who they are now'. Criminally underrated, and a huge void in the true Rush fan's appreciation of the totality of Rush. Tolkien would've loved it!
EXCELLENT,THX
With his magic prism eye, the Necromancer can see all the way to the Fountain of Lamneth!
I agree, this album holds many good memories for me. Totally underrated.
Such a well produced piece on a great human being. So captivating, I wasn’t tempted to read the comments until the video was over.
Neil Peart makes You proud to be human.
The spirit of Peart lives on in Pau Villarreal.
The drummer, composer, lyricist, and occasional SINGER of The Warning.
She won a pair of drumming awards in 2023, and is mesmerizing to watch perform.
A tearful tribute to a man I never met but who forever changed the course of my life with his beautiful drumming and touching relevant lyrics. I miss him every day.
This is so Rock Band 2 coded. I had the pleasure of seeing Peart and Rush in 2010 before he passed!
I'm glad I got the opportunity to see them in concert a few times😊
RUSH is my favorite band. Seen them 5 times. They are one of those rare bands that sound better live than they do on their recordings. And for a 3 piece ensemble, they have a HUGE sound 🔥
Neil comes from my home town so I am biased but in my opinion he's the best. Very few other drummers possess his chops, limb independence, and technical skill but no others in my opinion have those qualities plus the ability to make the kit sound so very good. He is a master drum part composer as well. Did I mention that he was a great human being too?
“limb independence” never have heard that before, but knew what you meant right away.
Very interesting! thank you for your videos.
My first concert ever Signals Tour 1982 MSG in the big apple. My favorite band ever. Only wish I’d seen them more than 10 times. Neil’s solo was alone worth the price of admission
I agree... Never seen anyone air drum to the Beatles though
Mr.Peart has influenced more kids than Bonham,and Moon combined-only Ringo can top that.Exit stage lrft was such a amazing live record when i first found it at a K-mart tape bin in 1988, and 2112 just after,changed the way i looked at drumming, remember he 2or 3 record or cassette tape set called RUSH archives?with first three albums on them?loved that set so much.
I still have The Archives tapes
Exit Stage Left is an amazing record, ''All the Worlds a Stage '' is as well. Both capture the spirit of the band perfectly. Not many live albums are as good. (Then remembers ''Live and Dangerous'' and ''On your Feet or on Your Knees'' !)
I totally miss Neil Peart! Miss seeing Rush live!
Very nice tribute. Thanks. Discovered Rush in 1979.
Love them to this day. We'll done, sir
I had the pleasure of seeing the band 3 times in the 70’s
He was an amazing musician and a great human being.
Thank you
Ya aucun doute le meilleur de tout les temps pour moi j'ai vue rush 17 fois les meilleurs musiciens de cette planète gedy c un dieux il es tellement beau à voir un swag une énergie il a tout 😅
Ça n'existe pas le meilleur de tous les temps, c'est impossible de comparer et de faire un classement avec des époques différentes et des styles différents
@@Martin_Bernard OK jusqu'à présent ya n'a pas un qui lacote
@@marcotheriault203 Il n'y a pas UN meilleur mais PLEIN de meilleurs, c'est absurde d'essayer de faire un classement de batteurs d'époques différentes avec des styles et des techniques différentes, d'autant plus que la musique est de l'art et pas du sport de compétition
Neil is absolutely one of the greatest of all time, or THE greatest, depending on who you talk to. I believe Dave Grohl from the Foo Fighters said that Neil Peart was your favorite drummer's favorite drummer. One of my favorite drummers is Danny Carey from the band Tool. Guess who is one of Danny's favorite drummers? Neil Peart :)
The greatest ever.
we miss you our hero
There's no greatest ever
Awesome video!😎👍
R.I.P ❤❤
You cant deny that Neil Peart is the main reason rock drumming took a huge leap in the 70/80s
Good to know that the Canadian genius behind most of the great lyrics and the musical elevating of Alex and Geddy aelso made good use of the available bongos; white noise clap trap (love me that applesauce); his own take on Simmons drums (nothing wrong with them, played them once 2) and those heavy English coins to teach his fans worldwide and the rockers and mockers still around as well , how in humble persevering through it all we can help make this world better, without first doing no harm , since the only way to make all things ''nice'' and every one equal , as trees of the same size isn't by cutting them all down...for if we did we wouldn't have greats like Alex Lifeson, , Giddy Lee ( with his museum -like baseball and bass collections and all) and the professor 's RUSH to listen to...Shema!!!.
I knew it ! the professor DID have a subscribe button in his kit.....LMYAZZOFF 👍
Very nice tribute.
I love the way he made that subscribe button sing 🤣
Took lessons 40 years into his career... I thought I was the only one.
Peart had a like button too.
The Professor 😀
One of the greatest ROCK drummers to ever live for sure.
But jazz...fusion and session players still grin wryly at him.
Does anyone know what happened to the drum solo video from 'Exit Stage...Left'?
The G.O.A.T. !
NP the BEST!👌🏻
Neil Peart is the best
2:45 popped me.
Although the jazz drummers need no added credentials now you add get this
Teaching Neil Peart to play drums.
Requested idea Video on Phil Rudd of Acdc
I've never heard him play the subscribe button.
“A Subscribe Button…” 😂 You win, sir. I subscribed just because of that… 👍
"A subscribe button"?🤔
Well played man! 👍🤣
Incredible Rockumentaries and Acknowledging of GREATNESS.
MUCH THANKS TO YOU, as well as these World-Class and Eternal TALENTS.
(disgusting use of "fking" words
by certain Neanderthals) Just grow up.
Yup. 😁
I’ve always absolutely loved him and I absolutely agree with the comment they made about his razor-sharp fills, odd meter time signatures and precision, but… if you want to see hand-foot independence, watch Thomas Lang or Virgil Donati.
There will never be another...
With all my love and respect to my all time hero, I must state this: Though I have been a (self-appointed) devotee and student of Neil Peart's work for over 44 years, with him being on my mind most of my day, I have always taken serious issue with his view of his stardom. This is mentioned in this video. If I could have had a conversation with him (and Geddy and Alex), I would have said "You're famous. Grow up. Get used to it. Learn to embrace it." This adversarial view of fans is insulting and ludicrous. We finance their whole lives, making them and their families rich and comfortable. They gain a powerful voice with which they can influence others, something the average person could never have. If a living, unappreciative famous person wishes, we fans could invite them to give up this fame, wealth, comfort and influence at any time. Conversely, Henry Winkler is the model star. He is humble, appreciative and caring toward fans. He takes the time to say hello and thanks every one of them. Many more people know Henry Winkler, so It's not a matter of how big of a star one is. Every famous person should learn to be like Winkler. Limelight made for a great song, but it's truly bittersweet for me.
Bottom line he is most drummers favorite drummer
Mic dropped
Bottom Line being about Neil is that He was Every Teenager's hero who took up drum lessons during the '80's, as His style boarded on every kind of basic style from,,, not going to get into it. Don't know how many drummer-wanna-bees that thought They were great when they could play LIMELIGHT. Always that song. Terrific Talent
The discussion of the greatest rock drummer may never end but most influential??? Ends right here.
At age 14, I discovered drums and marijuana. Things have never been the same.
2112❤
Yeah, that’s how it works. Ha Ha! Simply explains the extreme complexity.
Big difference between kits from their first days 😆
3:23 - Ooh, it's the old cruel 'musician' joke so beloved of keyboard players and guitarists: "... amongst musicians and drummers alike..."
OUCH!
Yep. We drummers aren't musicians [joke]. Whether you're called Buddy or Neil or Vinnie or Elli [that's me], we're just illiterate animals who like hitting things. Sometimes it's a snare; often it's a ride; usually it's the bassist; occasionally it's the 'Like' button.🤭
Does anyone else think Neil favors Aleister Crowley?
And he was heavily influenced by Cream's Ginger Baker.
9:42 W.C.Fields impersonation, clown makeup that didn’t all come off or gin blossom? You decide.
Your life must really
Suck. Get some help…
RIP my Autistic brother.
❤
Top 100 drummers, Rolling Stone Magazine (Woke waste of paper and ink) has Neil at number 4? LMAO NO WAY!
I would not want his success for his suffering of losing his little girl and wife.
Just buy drums
Play drums
Being douchy is douchy
too much talking, not enough of the actual drumming!
