Indeed. As a musician, blues specifically, I miss SRV every day. I'll miss Neil every day as well. Legends.
I’m sure all the die hard Rush fans remember how the group used to spell it’s name in block lettering?
By no means their best song, but arguably their most recognizable. RIP Neal Peart.

Just because it's overplayed doesn't mean it's not their best song.
Rest in Power, Neil!
You'll *always* be "Living in the Limelight"!

For me, it doesn't get any better than "Red Barchetta", but any Rush song is great, including "Tom Sawyer". Peart was the GOAT.
Great song. Too many to choose a favorite but “Freewill”, “The Spirit of Radio”, and for something a little trippier “La Villa Strangiato” stick out as some good ones.
There are probably dozens of radio stations presenting RUSH tributes today and for a temporary period. If you have it, Sirius XM Radio is presenting RUSH on Deep Tracks Channel 27. You can download the app for your PC, tablet, etc for listening via the net. I would imagine Tune In and other online stations are doing the same. Some really fine tunes are crackling the airwaves!

I love the hell out of the whole Vapor Trails album, which was the first album after Neil Peart returned to the band after losing his wife and daughter.
Nocturne, and...

It's also easy to forget that Phil Collins was an absolute beast on the drums. Once he took over vocal duties they started bringing in a touring drummer. And before Chester Thompson, they toured with Bill Bruford, who is also a legend. Here you can see Bruford and Collins both manning their kits at the same time! (See especially 2:45)
This will help get the great grandkids thru any college.
