So glad you did this. "Tom Sawyer" is still one of the greatest songs ever. I first heard it in 1981 and was completely fucking blown-away. This is truly THE quintessential Rush song.
BEST BAND EVER, no question. 3 that sound like 5. Not a better drummer , bassist or guitarist to play the big sound they produce.Canada's pride. WE ARE RUSH ARMY!!
I think you'll appreciate this newly released cut: 💥THE GIRL WHO LISTENED TO RUSH💥 From the back of the stadium She’s easy to see Standing up at the stage In her Starman tee From Anthem to Limelight To YYZ She’s the girl who listened to Rush And all of the rockers And all of the heshers Well they dreamed of the day That they might get her And drive her away In a Red Barchetta She’s the girl who listened to Rush Philosophers and ploughmen They can’t resist her call They cannot choose Not to decide So they've got no choice at all They've gotta love her No she doesn’t say "Pert" And she doesn’t say "Part" Yeah, she knows it’s "Neil Peert" ‘Cause he’s close to her heart Say a prayer for John Rutsey He was there at the start She’s the girl who listened to Rush Philosophers and ploughmen They can’t resist her call They cannot choose Not to decide So they've got no choice at all They've gotta love her Why don’t girls ever listen to Rush?

You are correct, Moving Pictures was recorded at Le Studio in (I think) Quebec. I may be wrong. Sadly, Le Studio is gone, having been abandoned. There is a video floating around here with Neil walking around the ruins
The 3 of them, having the talent they have, is so rare and special. Neil Peart RIP - the Professor. If Neil Peart isn't your favorite drummer, he is your favorite drummers favorite drummer.
The site of this recording was in Morin Heights, Quebec, about 70 miles north of Montreal in the Laurentian Mountains in a place called “Le Studio” which burned down in the 80’s. I lived there before the fire.
Stop using words you don’t understand. There is NOTHING underrated about any member of Rush. Alex is considered by his peers and fans as one of the greatest ever.
LeStudio was in the middle of the woods in Quebec. It was state of the art when this song was recorded. There were on site living quarters so bands could go there to record and use it as a retreat and rest up and recharge in between tours. April Wine also did some recording there. It became out dated and there was a fire that burned part of the complex and it was abandoned and vandalized over the years. The mixing board actually was sold before the fire and ended up being used in a recording studio in the Chicago area for many years. There are actually some pretty interesting RUclips videos about LeStudio.
What is Rush known for? (1) Musical integrity, after three records company asks for radio hits and they deliver a 20 minuted power/prog masterpiece in 2112. (2) Masterful skills and musicianship which is obvious. (3) Intelligent thoughtful and deep lyrics, no simplistic rock/pop songs here (4) Musical Change Ups: Rush changes with the decade, whatever they wanted to do (5) 40 years of quality work from three friends (RIP Neil)
I live 15 minutes from that place. I have a few pieces of broken glass from that giant glass separation between where they are and the mixing console, you can see it right behind Alex. I also have some pieces of parquetry flooring exactly from where Neil's drums are sitting in this video, and some cedar shingles from the exterior siding that you see at the very end of the video. So glad I have these artifacts of rock'n roll history.
Hey guys, great videos! This album was recorded at Le Studio in Quebec. It has since been left to time, and over the years there's always a call to buy ti and get it going again. Just give it a Google!
That’s what’s cool about Rush. They all do their “solos” at the same time. Each one is completely going off on their own instruments and they make is sound great
💥THE GIRL WHO LISTENED TO RUSH💥 From the back of the stadium She’s easy to see Standing up at the stage In her Starman tee From Anthem to Limelight To YYZ She’s the girl who listened to Rush And all of the rockers And all of the heshers Well they dreamed of the day That they might get her And drive her away In a Red Barchetta She’s the girl who listened to Rush Philosophers and ploughmen They can’t resist her call They cannot choose Not to decide So they've got no choice at all They've gotta love her No she doesn’t say "Pert" And she doesn’t say "Part" Yeah, she knows it’s "Neil Peert" ‘Cause he’s close to her heart Say a prayer for John Rutsey He was there at the start She’s the girl who listened to Rush Philosophers and ploughmen They can’t resist her call They cannot choose Not to decide So they've got no choice at all They've gotta love her Why don’t girls ever listen to Rush?

This was the album they were making when we were playing in the park and heard music coming from the factories and we climbed on the dumpsters to watch in the window and saw them rocking out making the most impressive sounds we had ever heard . They saw us and came out and talked to us about hockey ( cause that's what we Canadians do 😂) we talked about the music they were making and their cars they had beautiful cars and when we were done Geddy and Alex gave us guitar picks and Neil gave us drumsticks they were so down to earth and humble. When I was older I saw them twice I had to meeting them and watching them record made me want to see them. Peace out ✌️ ☮️
Xanadu - Exit Stage Left, you will never see a better live performance of an incredibly complicated song. Pay particular attention to Alex on lead guitar at the 7:28 mark when he changes from the top to the bottom neck without missing a beat. Inf%$kingcredible percussion clinic as well. La Villa Stagiatto, Limelight........so many great songs
You all prolly dont care at all but does anybody know a trick to log back into an instagram account?? I was stupid lost the password. I would love any tricks you can give me.
@Benedict Terry i really appreciate your reply. I got to the site on google and I'm waiting for the hacking stuff now. Looks like it's gonna take a while so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
The studio is in the province of Quebec, and it's simply called, Le Studio. It's north of Montreal, in a location called, Morin Heights. Many artists you may know have recorded there... Cat Stevens, Ritchie Havens, Chicago, The Police, the Bee Gees, Sting, Corey Hart, David Bowie, and many more!
You need to see the Best Live Performance of all time RUSH - Xanadu - Live In Montreal 1981 (2021 HD Remaster 60fps) Alex Lifeson - 6 string guitar, 12 string guitar, pedal synthesizer, volume pedal; Geddy Lee - Vocals, bass guitar, 6 string guitar, foot pedal synthesizer, electric piano/synthesizer; Neil Peart - Lyrics, Drums, orchestra bells, tubular bells, wind chimes, crotales, timbales, timpani, gong, temple blocks, bell tree, triangle, and melodic cowbells. Based on Kubla Khan (Xanadu) by Samuel Taylor Coleridge Coleridge composed his poem, ‘Kubla Khan’, in a state of semi-conscious trance either in the autumn of 1797 or the spring of 1798 and published in 1816. The whole poem is pervaded by an atmosphere of dream and remains in the form of a vision. The vision embodied in Kubla Khan was inspired by the perusal of the travel book, Purchas His Pilgrimage. Coleridge had taken a dose of opium as an anodyne, and his eyes closed upon the line in the book, “At Zanadu Kubla Khan built a pleasure palace.” But this opened his creative vision, and the poem of about 200 lines was composed in this state of waking dream. On being fully awake, he wrote the poem down. The theme of the poem is unimportant. It describes the palace built by Kubla Khan, the grandson of Chengis Khan, the great rule of central Asia. ruclips.net/video/2byjJkN_nVY/видео.html
Recorded at Le Studio in Canada. A lot of bands recorded there ie April Wine, Police, Bee Gees, Cat Stevens, Bowie and more. Went bankrupt 2008, destroyed by suspicious fire 2017.
I saw the Moving Pictures concert and is to this day one of the best concerts I ever saw. No back up musicians, just the 3 of them. Sounded as good as the studio version. Mind was blown.
Hey guys. The recording studio is in Morin Heights, Quebec, which is only about a 40-minute drive from my place, north of Montreal. It was called "Le Studio", and it closed in 2003.
I've had the pleasure of seeing Rush live many times - about a dozen times - and it still wasn't nearly enough. Their live shows were unbelievable. 3-hour shows, no opening band, just straight, mind-blowing rocking out by the best rock band of all time.
9:30 actually Tom Sawyer isn't easy drumming, even for Neil, because his right hand is running nonstop 16th notes on the cymbals, which means all the other drumming... is his left hand. "Eraser Head" is David Lynch's 1st film, at the time it was Alex's favorite movie. If you like strange avant-garde B&W it's good.
I read that Neil once said Tom Sawyer was one of his most complex and difficult songs to play correctly. He said if he could get thru it during a live show, he considered it a success. In all of their music every stick and foot movement was a written note and he had to play it perfectly every time, or he was disappointed
No Bigger Rush Fan Than Me On The Planet (I'm Sure Millions Feel The Same Way About Themselves) & This Was The Track That Hooked Its Canadian Teeth Into Me In 1981. I Was A Little Familiar With PW (1980), But Tom Sawyer/Moving Pictures Immediately Obsessed Me To Consume All 7 Studio Albums That Preceded This One. 43 Years & 33 Concerts Later, I Still Believe It's The Greatest Song & Album They've Created. In My Opinion, They Were At Their Apex; Musical Complexity (Pre MIDI) & Musical/Lyrical Talent - Especially The Sound Of Pratt's Cherry-Wine Tama Kit & Percussion Ensemble Which Began Changing On Their Next LP, Signals (1982). Maybe It's My Bias Because 1981 Is When I Became A RUSHian Citizen, But Tom Sawyer May Be The Greatest Hard Rock Tune Of All-Time. Thank-You For Putting This Together. ☆
Growing up in Northeast Ohio in the 70's only one Radio Station would play there music in the US! WDVE Cleveland!! Rush 2112 is dedicated to that Radio Station, check out the Album Cover It's on it!!!
The movie Waterboy with Adam Sandler used this song too! Just an FYI.. Another all time favorite is “Limelight”..I love the German Shepherd shot at the beginning of the video.. I recommend that song as your next reaction video! FYI..They were at Le Studio in Quebec Canada..
Back to your question , a trio as good as Rush, i would say Cream. The best drummer Ginger Baker, the best guitarist Eric Clapton and a great bassist in Jack Bruce. They were in 10 years before Rush. i love em both!!
That studio is about an hour north of montreal, in Morin Heights. It's beautiful there, they have a nice little ski hill and the best looking women in Quebec.
In the Laurentiens mountains 100 miles north of Montreal, also where April Wine recorded many of their hits & albums. Rush is what they call Progressive Music band
You guys would have a blast with a cover done by NYC looney-tunes Mindless Self Indulgence: For when you want the total "Tom Sawyer" experience but you're in a rush (d'oh!). It's the whole song in half the time plus a generous helping of Tourette's Syndrome.
Neil Peart’s double bass drum kit.. nobody see’s how fast the foot pedals are going off when you watch this band but you definitely hear it.. you wonder… “How’s he doing this sound”? That was always fun to watch his solo’s in concert.. so this is what a feel good jam looks like! 🥰😊😁
By the way, the snow you see is not "on the ground" but on a frozen lake. The place was, past tense' majestic. It was left in such a neglected state for the past 15 years or so that it was beyond repair. It was demolished about a year ago. It's (was) located in Morin Heights, Quebec, Canada.
Back when Rush was in its infancy, one critic said Geddy Lee sounded like Mickey Mouse on helium🤣. Not only that, but if you put some green make-up on him, he'd be a dead ringer for the Wicked Witch of the West from The Wizard of Oz. Double🤣🤣.
Hi Boys. Enjoying your choices - particularly Rush, Supertramp, Boston - superior stuff. Recommend you try out Porcupine Tree. Their 'live at Tilburg' set is simply outstanding. Suggest ' What happens Now, Arriving Somewhere but not Here, Anaesthetise ' for starters. You like exceptional musicianship - this band has it in spades, and Gavin Harrison on drums has been hailed as the best drummer around.
you gotta remember in this era there were a lot of good bands and for rush to be on top of all that is just mind blowing.... in todays era if rush came out with this now they would get every award possible and people would lose there minds i think ther were just soo many great bands that rush kinda went under the radar but all musicians knew who rush were whispered in hushed and reverent tones when talked about
Nice! Hello from Brasil! From Rush I also recommend the live videos of "Xanadu", "Red Barchetta" and "Frewill (the instrumental part is CRAZY!!!)" from the show "Exit: Stage Left". And also the official video for "Subdivisions!
YES! +1 for Working Man Live in Cleveland. It would help if one of you knew the orig studio version to speak to the intro. The instumental break needs to be put in the Smithsonian.
check out The Warning. a 3 piece of young sisters from mexico. write their own stuff, and have been around for a little more than 10 years. no autotune. no lipsynch. no pitch correction. ever. their strength is their live show.
Never noticed the Eraserhead poster!! Nice I saw it but don’t pretend to understand it but I love how Roger Ebert described it: Not a single comforting image……….😬😬🤣😎
Thank you for playing RUSH, now, do you want to hear the song that sent them off to the next level. Even though, they are a Toronto band, like Triumph, they know, where the market is. They can make a good living in Canada, but if you really want to make a good living, go to America. In the mid to late 1970s, this song was played in Cleveland Ohio, on the radio. Cleveland loved it, adopted it, and RUSH was on its way to the stardom they desired. Have a listen> ruclips.net/video/Gj5slzbiopw/видео.html **Played in Cleveland where it all began for them. 4 years later 2015, they played Cleveland for the last time ever**. This Tom Sawyer was filmed in Quebec.
Nice reaction. Working Man was Rush's first hit song off their self titled album Rush. You can do the studio version as a reaction but if you really want to blow your minds, do "Working Man" live in Cleveland. Other radio hits to get started are Limelight, Freewill, Closer to the Heart and Spirit of the Radio should get you up and running with Rush.

The reason Neil has such a large drum kit is because he plays all of it.
❤
You know you got a big kit when your walking around playing them like the Xanedo set
The best drummer of all time. RIP Neil Peart.
So glad you did this. "Tom Sawyer" is still one of the greatest songs ever. I first heard it in 1981 and was completely fucking blown-away. This is truly THE quintessential Rush song.
Someone asked Eddy VanHalen what's it like being the best guitarist in the world. He said "ask Alex Lifeson ".
Is that true?
@@Another_User_Name_ he said it to a Rolling Stone reporter white walking by to do a sound check . He was a Rush fan
myth
I’ve heard that attributed to soooo many people.
Eddy isnt even top 10.
Imagine being in a band, recording that, and being disappointed with how it turned out. They are crazy talented.
BEST BAND EVER, no question. 3 that sound like 5. Not a better drummer , bassist or guitarist to play the big sound they produce.Canada's pride. WE ARE RUSH ARMY!!
As an American, I must concede. Rush is the best band, period!
@@Another_User_Name_ I salute you for that kind of humility. I hereby make you an honorary trooper in the RUSH army. : )
I think you'll appreciate this newly released cut:
💥THE GIRL WHO LISTENED TO RUSH💥
From the back of the stadium
She’s easy to see
Standing up at the stage
In her Starman tee
From Anthem to Limelight
To YYZ
She’s the girl who listened to Rush
And all of the rockers
And all of the heshers
Well they dreamed of the day
That they might get her
And drive her away
In a Red Barchetta
She’s the girl who listened to Rush
Philosophers and ploughmen
They can’t resist her call
They cannot choose
Not to decide
So they've got no choice at all
They've gotta love her
No she doesn’t say "Pert"
And she doesn’t say "Part"
Yeah, she knows it’s "Neil Peert"
‘Cause he’s close to her heart
Say a prayer for John Rutsey
He was there at the start
She’s the girl who listened to Rush
Philosophers and ploughmen
They can’t resist her call
They cannot choose
Not to decide
So they've got no choice at all
They've gotta love her
Why don’t girls ever listen to Rush? (X a lot)
But she listened to Rush!

No you’ve got no choice at all

Sadly, Le Studio is gone, having been abandoned. There is a video floating around here with Neil walking around the ruins
The studio was in Quebec - Le Studio was torn down in 2020

Neal is constantly changing his timing in this song. Best drumming any song ever.

Stop using words you don’t understand. There is NOTHING underrated about any member of Rush. Alex is considered by his peers and fans as one of the greatest ever.
@@Golfstar17 take it easy, I know he’s considered one of the greats, but isn’t appreciated enough!!!!!
@@mylesdevine9513exactly!
LeStudio was in the middle of the woods in Quebec. It was state of the art when this song was recorded. There were on site living quarters so bands could go there to record and use it as a retreat and rest up and recharge in between tours. April Wine also did some recording there.
It became out dated and there was a fire that burned part of the complex and it was abandoned and vandalized over the years.
The mixing board actually was sold before the fire and ended up being used in a recording studio in the Chicago area for many years.
There are actually some pretty interesting RUclips videos about LeStudio.
Moving Pictures was indeed recorded in Canada.."Le Studio" in Morin-Heights, Quebec....They have recorded many classic albums there
Unfortunately, Le Studio burned down a couple of years ago.
Yeah I believed arson was suspected...
Morin heights is in north of Montréal, which is north of new york state, very sad that "le studio" disappear
@@maximegervais2213 Le Studio était justement en travaux de rénovation quand il est parti en fumé ,quel perte .
@@kallyfest très triste, Rush a t-il enregistré d'autres albums dans ce studio, avec moving pictures?
Rush is the reason all my musician friends in high school wanted to be drummers and bass players

I live 15 minutes from that place. I have a few pieces of broken glass from that giant glass separation between where they are and the mixing console, you can see it right behind Alex. I also have some pieces of parquetry flooring exactly from where Neil's drums are sitting in this video, and some cedar shingles from the exterior siding that you see at the very end of the video.

Eraserhead was David Lynch's first film. Neil Peart was an avid sci-fi and fantasy fan.
Canadian music royalty 🇨🇦
I'm so glad yall recognized Alex! Did you notice how he mimicked the piano, then sent it into another stratosphere!
This was the album they were making when we were playing in the park and heard music coming from the factories and we climbed on the dumpsters to watch in the window and saw them rocking out making the most impressive sounds we had ever heard .

You guys said it they are the Elite, cream of the cream, top top band and deserving of the highest praise indeed
Xanadu - Exit Stage Left, you will never see a better live performance of an incredibly complicated song.

Actually this song isn’t”lite work” for Neil. He has stated that Tom Sawyer is one of his most difficult to play😊

think Triumph my friends,,,,anotherCanadian power Trio!!
Ground breaking, incredible music.
That was in Morin heights in the laurentien in the world renowned studio there in the province of Quebec just an hour from Montreal 😉👌
Recorded at Le Studio in Canada. A lot of bands recorded there ie April Wine, Police, Bee Gees, Cat Stevens, Bowie and more. Went bankrupt 2008, destroyed by suspicious fire 2017.

Hey guys. The recording studio is in Morin Heights, Quebec, which is only about a 40-minute drive from my place, north of Montreal. It was called "Le Studio", and it closed in 2003.
30 minutes drive away from where I live in the Laurentians BTW.
I've had the pleasure of seeing Rush live many times - about a dozen times - and it still wasn't nearly enough. Their live shows were unbelievable. 3-hour shows, no opening band, just straight, mind-blowing rocking out by the best rock band of all time.

Saw them live in Edmonton in 2003. As good live as they are in the studio.
RIP Neal Peart. One of the best.
Have seen them 2 times here in Sweden. Best liveband i have ever watch for sure! This video was recorded in LE STUDIO in Canada
Just THREE Canadian guys rockin' out :) Peace and Love
Canadian bands back in the day were where it's at -- Americans loved Garth brooks and Cindy lauper and we loved our Chilliwack, rush and BTO
Brooks was in the 90s. Rush had mostly lost it by then. BTO didn't exist
Triumph had some great tunes as well. As a 28 year old prog rock/jam band fan music these days doesn't come close to what rush used to put out.
Loverboy kicked ass too, but England got it on everyone. Shall I list England's best?

Growing up in Northeast Ohio in the 70's only one Radio Station would play there music in the US!
WDVE Cleveland!!
Rush 2112 is dedicated to that Radio Station, check out the Album Cover
It's on it!!!
The Awesomeness is overwhelming. If you ever wonder how the Gods play music? Well, here you go.
The movie Waterboy with Adam Sandler used this song too! Just an FYI.. Another all time favorite is “Limelight”..I love the German Shepherd shot at the beginning of the video.. I recommend that song as your next reaction video! FYI..They were at Le Studio in Quebec Canada..
You would love "Closer to the heart"!
YOU MUST SEE WORKING MAN, CLEVELAND LIVE!!!!
Back to your question , a trio as good as Rush, i would say Cream. The best drummer Ginger Baker, the best guitarist Eric Clapton and a great bassist in Jack Bruce. They were in 10 years before Rush. i love em both!!
Great song!
That studio is about an hour north of montreal, in Morin Heights. It's beautiful there, they have a nice little ski hill and the best looking women in Quebec.
In the Laurentiens mountains 100 miles north of Montreal, also where April Wine recorded many of their hits & albums. Rush is what they call Progressive Music band
You guys would have a blast with a cover done by NYC looney-tunes Mindless Self Indulgence:
For when you want the total "Tom Sawyer" experience but you're in a rush (d'oh!). It's the whole song in half the time plus a generous helping of Tourette's Syndrome.
Neil Peart’s double bass drum kit.. nobody see’s how fast the foot pedals are going off when you watch this band but you definitely hear it.. you wonder… “How’s he doing this sound”? That was always fun to watch his solo’s in concert.. so this is what a feel good jam looks like! 🥰😊😁
By the way, the snow you see is not "on the ground" but on a frozen lake. The place was, past tense' majestic. It was left in such a neglected state for the past 15 years or so that it was beyond repair. It was demolished about a year ago. It's (was) located in Morin Heights, Quebec, Canada.
In Concert is Unbelievable.
Yep. Seen them 8 times!
You reacted to April Wine “Roller”. They have another song called “I Like to Rock” and the official video was also shot in this same studio.
All 3 members ooze talent,but Neil Pert rules on that drum kit!🥁😎Btw,to answer your question,No,no other trio packs the same punch as RUSH!🎸🎹🎙🤘
Back when Rush was in its infancy, one critic said Geddy Lee sounded like Mickey Mouse on helium🤣. Not only that, but if you put some green make-up on him, he'd be a dead ringer for the Wicked Witch of the West from The Wizard of Oz. Double🤣🤣.
Hi Boys. Enjoying your choices - particularly Rush, Supertramp, Boston - superior stuff. Recommend you try out Porcupine Tree. Their 'live at Tilburg' set is simply outstanding. Suggest ' What happens Now, Arriving Somewhere but not Here, Anaesthetise ' for starters. You like exceptional musicianship - this band has it in spades, and Gavin Harrison on drums has been hailed as the best drummer around.
you gotta remember in this era there were a lot of good bands and for rush to be on top of all that is just mind blowing.... in todays era if rush came out with this now they would get every award possible and people would lose there minds i think ther were just soo many great bands that rush kinda went under the radar but all musicians knew who rush were whispered in hushed and reverent tones when talked about
Nice! Hello from Brasil! From Rush I also recommend the live videos of "Xanadu", "Red Barchetta" and "Frewill (the instrumental part is CRAZY!!!)" from the show "Exit: Stage Left". And also the official video for "Subdivisions!
Great stuff guys. Love it.
WORKING MAN live in Cleveland. This will blow you away.
YES! +1 for Working Man Live in Cleveland.
It would help if one of you knew the orig studio version to speak to the intro.
The instumental break needs to be put in the Smithsonian.
check out The Warning. a 3 piece of young sisters from mexico. write their own stuff, and have been around for a little more than 10 years. no autotune. no lipsynch. no pitch correction. ever. their strength is their live show.
This is the same studio April wine recorded the video for I like to rock
Never noticed the Eraserhead poster!! Nice
I saw it but don’t pretend to understand it but I love how Roger Ebert described it:
Not a single comforting image……….😬😬🤣😎
Thank you for playing RUSH, now, do you want to hear the song that sent them off to the next level. Even though, they are a Toronto band, like Triumph, they know, where the market is. They can make a good living in Canada, but if you really want to make a good living, go to America. In the mid to late 1970s, this song was played in Cleveland Ohio, on the radio. Cleveland loved it, adopted it, and RUSH was on its way to the stardom they desired. Have a listen> ruclips.net/video/Gj5slzbiopw/видео.html **Played in Cleveland where it all began for them. 4 years later 2015, they played Cleveland for the last time ever**. This Tom Sawyer was filmed in Quebec.
When you are ready, there are a couple of Special RUSH songs that are must haves. 2112, the whole 20+ minute opus.
Nice reaction. Working Man was Rush's first hit song off their self titled album Rush. You can do the studio version as a reaction but if you really want to blow your minds, do "Working Man" live in Cleveland. Other radio hits to get started are Limelight, Freewill, Closer to the Heart and Spirit of the Radio should get you up and running with Rush.
Guys trust me on this. The song 2112 will change your life! It’s long but it is incredible!!
