That album did have some pretty good skin beating in it.

I really liked that first album, dug his style. I'm more about the meat and potatoes stuff than Ayn Rand weirdo fusion cheese rock. RIP good buddy.

RIP.

I consider "Finding My Way" and ESPECIALLY "Working Man" among the absolute best songs the band has ever done. I don't think those songs would have been the same if Peart had originally done the drumming...

Looks like "The Album" for this 2-4 weekend, is RUSH.

Sorry neighbours, but it must be done.

RIP good buddy, and thanks.
