      Canadian rock drummer Neil Peart dead at 67. Peart, primary lyricist for Rush, was known for his technical proficiency, and for weaving jazz and big band patterns with a hard rock style. Publicist says Peart died in California January 7. Background: http://cbc.ca/1.3354504

      Neil Peart was in some ways the Hendrix of drummers - like Jimi, even if he wasn't the very best (the arguments on such things are endless), he dominated the sound of his band & just didn't sound quite like anyone else. No comparable drummer was also such a lyricist. 1 of a kind.

      The proper mood is my favorite Rush song, even though it is the least characteristic Rush song. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dMSFqXGZ5TQ …

      Dan McLaughlin Retweeted Scott

      I only saw Rush in concert once, on the Roll the Bones tour. For the most part, the band sounded note-for-note like they did on record, except for leaving room for Peart to go do his thing. Which was amazing.https://twitter.com/ScottyE_FL/status/1215748692508053512 …

      This is spot on. Only way to really appreciate him was live in concert, I had the pleasure around 14 times. Simply amazing to watch him play in person. https://twitter.com/baseballcrank/status/1215745213383266304 …

      Welp, it's official: on the first 2020 episode of @Political_Beats I am going to do the unthinkable and dive into the discography of a band who I have comically prided myself on not knowing a single thing about for a solid 39 years despite being an enormous prog-rock fan. pic.twitter.com/g4uOlzhoZd

          This is not, musically, Peart's best work - that was the drums incorporated with the band - but it's a great solo, the man in his element, and a close-up look at how he worked.https://twitter.com/BizballMaury/status/1215747332437729280 …
