Neil Peart and Rush's Greatest Songs

Many of us have tried to air drum to a Rush song and could barely follow along to the legendary Neil Peart's outstanding technical prowess on the kit. Starting out as a maniacal basher in the style of John Bonham and Keith Moon, Peart would become a drum virtuoso adding progressive jazz fills to his playing and leading Rush to superstar status. Rush's electrifying live concerts usually featured an out of this world drum solo by Peart sitting on top of a monstrous kit. He was also the principal songwriter in the band, blending fantasy, science fiction and philosophical themes creating a magical universe. Peart, Geddy Lee, and Alex Lifeson will live on as the ultimate progressive power rock trio. We look at Neil Peart and Rush's greatest songs.
