Three guys in their fifties ending a three hour concert , pure honest working men
RUSH is THE PERFECT EXAMPLE of the fluidity of MASTERING TIME SIGNATURES! I play drums and there are a few things that you need to know about Neil Peart’s ( pronounced PEER-T) character: First he writes the lyrics so he knows in advance what TYPE of song it’s meant to be ie ballad, driver, etc. Second he COMPOSES on the drums… like a carpenter who looks at a set of blueprints before building the object. Neil lays out a SKETCH in his mind of the VOICES of the drumset and builds the song from there. He is also a great LISTENER knowing when NOT to step over Geddy’s singing or Alex’s solos! Finally, he had perfect timing and fluidity of time changes. He said himself that it’s not about COUNTING the time signatures as much as fluid motion to change the tempo without counting: in other words it should FLOW! He hates repeating the same drum patterns in the same song meaning if he plays a fill one way the first time around he will play it differently the second time around. IE. Rolls down the toms the first time around and triplets or quads (all four limbs) the second time around. In short there will NEVER be another like him on planet earth 🌍 🌏 🌎! REST IN PEACE PROFESSOR!
With heart felt admiration and sincerity!

I remember my older bros playing Rush’s 1st album, when I was 6, and before and after was always one of my favourite songs.I can’t say I became a Rush fan, though, until I heard the opening synth sound of 2112. From that point, Rush ruled my music listening. Therefore, I can only say, Welcome to the best music you’ll hear.
And being a Canadian, it’s almost the law to like and subscribe to Rush content😁
LOVE IT!
I absolutely love you are going chronological! Welcome!
That 'tock-tock-tock-tock' sound at the start is indeed a cowbell 😊👍 This would've been played by Neil, being a part of his drum kit 🙂
I was at this show in Cleveland. It was Awsome sauce!
Rush is one of the best things out of Canada. Period. I’m not even from Canada. And yes, by seeing my profile pic, you can tell I’m a Rush fan lol. I so enjoyed your reaction. I’m sure you would’ve enjoyed their concerts. I never went to any, but seeing many of them on RUclips, they were one of the best live acts on the planet.
Watch RUSH Live in Dallas - Where's my Thing? Geddy plays killer Bass!
Absolutely love your reactions to Rush! I was lucky enough to be at this Cleveland Concert when Working Man was recorded! It was an amazing evening of music with their typical in your face power trio, blow your hair back, vibe and all the Rush fans were yelling and screaming outside the venue in anticipation of being part of the crowd for a Rush album that was to be released in the future. There was that real feel deep down of happiness and wonder and of being part of something that was going to be epic. As expected It did not disappoint on this day or any of the other five or six times that I saw Rush perform live in Cleveland earlier in their careers. Cleveland had a Rock and Roll Station WMMS and one of the DJs had gotten their hands on a new song by a Canadian band called Rush. The song was Working Man! She played it that night on her nightly show. The Cleveland Rock and Roll radio listeners who were listening that night immediately began requesting it to be played on the radio. This was 1974 so you would call into the radio station and make requests for the songs you wanted to hear them play and they actually played them! Prior to this Rush was playing High School gymnasiums! They played one gym that was 2 miles from where I live in Bedford Ohio. So, Cleveland is known as the place they got their big break. There was a mutual love affair with the band and with the very loyal and vocal Cleveland Rush fans. So much so that Rush chose Cleveland for the recording of this live album to show their thanks for all the unwavering support over the years. I first heard Rush when I was in 6th grade in 1977 and they are still my overall all-time favorite band today! You are going to love this ride!!
The DJ was Donna Halper. She broke the song Working Man on the radio.
I believe the song was written in late 1973 and they played and honed it in their bar gigs before recorded it in early 1974 for the album. The song is about Alex’s dad, who worked 2 and 3 jobs as an Yugoslavian (Serbian) immigrant to Canada in the post world war 2 time. He was a plumber and Alex would accompany him at times and was learning the plumbing trade in case he didn’t make it as a musician. 😂
Yes, you are right it is a cowbell and it's sometimes part of a drumkit. Good ear. I just discovered this page 4 weeks after posting. I don't know who you are but if you're doing what I think you're doing, that is to say, exploring Rush from the beginning; then you're in for a nice surprise on the next album. I do feel lucky in that I got to see them 3 times. My high school years were 1977-83, which was when they were starting to get a bit of notice. Greetings from Vancouver, Canada.
As I recall, you really like chimes and tubular bells. Those are employed in Closer to the Heart.
Bass is the soul.🐕
You like the bass, then Geddy is your man. Top 3 ever! They're all top 3 at their instruments IMHO...
And that ending was and excerpt from a song off their '77 album, A Farewell to Kings.

It is cool to watch young people reacting to music that I grew up with. I am 62 years young, and I like this music, but I like other (newer) genres as well.
By the way, this was the last album that they had this kind of "simple", "hook-up" song lyrics. When they brought in Neil, the song topics changed to more anthemic, epic, literary, and deep topics. They grow and change so dramatically within the first 5 years, believe me! You will be amazed! These guys worked the asses off learning their instruments and song-craft to the point where they were considered the best in the world, by 1979! Keep going!
yes i am aware cause i did a bit of research that i talk about in the first reaction i did to them and i am so excited to see this development happen :)
Try Xanadu from Exit Stage Left or Natural Science next if you want to see how they can multitask. The first song has more guitar necks than band members and Neil only plays six different percussion instruments. 😊
Love your reaction
Imagine being a teen in the 70s in Canada and this music is the norm on the radio. Luckily I was there.
It is my hope that you continue on this musical journey experience called "Rush", you're about to have your mind blown.....be prepared.
Another great reaction and commentary. I am really glad that you got to see this live performance of "Working Man" because it truly is amazing. However, you really should check out the original version off the album because it is very different and it is the song that really kick started their career. Also this performance is somewhat special because it was in Cleveland which is where the song "Working Man" first got radio play in the US. It became a big hit with the largely blue color listening audience.
At this point these guys were in their late fifties and had been playing together for over thirty years. Also they have probably played this song at every show so in this version they really changed it quite a bit. In the original version there is no reggae section like they start this version with. The original is more like the second half of this version. This really was an amazing live performance. Especially when you realize that this was the last song in a three hour long concert. Neil had not taken a break for the entire show and the only break for Alex and Geddy was during Neil's drum solo.
Now this is the RUSH GREATEST BAND EVER
The "Grease" soundtrack is awesome! "I got chills there multiplying"-John "You better wake up"-Olivia, Classic! I suppose Greece is very nice, too. Great Analysis! The "Reggae" intro to "Working Man" hides a very powerful song! RIP Olivia Newton John and Neil Peart!
Try the 1974 version on the first album you just listened to. Much different, but Great also.
You may want to check out at least one video of Neil Peart’s drum solos. They are legendary.
Rock on girl!😊
Rush is 🇨🇦🔥
I grew up listening to these guys. Try La Villa Strangiato.
This song has evolved over the years. If you go back to the original recording, you will hear a very different take on the song. The way the play it has softened over the years and they added a lot of reggae to it (based off of the old "In Living Color" skit about the Jamaican immigrants with "only three jobs, mon!"). The sudden change part way through is the sound of the original recording.
On your own time, you should check out Need Some Love if you want some hard-edged Alex riffs.
Yes. Starship Trooper. 😊
I love this performance! The shredding between Alex and Geddy united on stage belongs in the Smithsonian, IMO. Yes, I know they're Canadian, but dibs! That magic was in Cleveland! Unfortunately, for first-time reactors, the deep fake doesn't hit as hard. And tbh, the first time I caught this I was getting very disappointed--and I thought they'd drop at "ice cold beer!" 😆
The pretty girls got taste 😊
You Should ALWAYS WAIT UNTIL THE END OF LIVE VIDEOS!!! Geddy said some Wonderful Things! "Best Audience EVER", Because Cleveland was Their FIRST USA Concert!
Another great reaction!!! You should cover all of their albums. The band is definitely worth the time it would take. I think you would get alot of traffic on your channel. Either way, you have a new subscriber. Looking forward to the next video. 🇨🇦🤘🤘🤘🥂🥂
Thank you so much i am glad you liked it and welcome 😁✨️
be careful venice. rush is addictive and may take more than a month to cover. as far as addictions go this is a great one to have :)
Hahaha i see then i will be careful then but i will also have a lot of fun😁
Was this your first Rock song with Cowbell in it??! So cool!! More Cowbell! Haha! Fun songs, tons of great riffs and great vibes! This first album is the best "Beer drinking, booty shaking, and hard partying"-type of album! Put this album on at a House Party and crank it loud and that party is going to blow up!! :) Woo!
Now do you see why the bands named RUSH
Definitely 🤩👌✨️
The video quality is, as you would expect, markedly better with later live performances, so I definitely recommend continuing to go with those, although Geddy is not quite at his vocal peak in later years in my opinion (still very good though). The improvisation that Geddy does on bass in many live performances also makes them special. He is one of the best bass players in rock history.
Yes definitely much better but yes i will also try to do the audio only songs to get the performance at its best time 🤩😁👌
These guys were crazy. Anyway, one of the thing that might have frustrated their fans over the years was their unwillingness to make the same album twice. Moving Pictures was their most commercially successful album they had, but the follow up (Signals) evolved with the times too. Then in the '80's there were a lot of keyboards and then they evolved over and over and over again, only to finish STRONG with Clockwork Angels in 2012. Their live versions are almost always better, but the studio versions are always wonderful too. There are really only a handful of songs that never grew on me.
The last riff from this song was from Cygnusx-1 off of their A Farewell to Kings album and not part of the original song (and the reggae start was just them mixing it up and not part of the studio version). So much fun watching your enthusiasm. Don't change!
Time for you to experience Rush Live. I want to recommend the video titled Medley: By Tor and the Snow Dog, In the End, In the Mood, Grand Finale.! Also the song Xanadu from the Exit Stage Left concert. !
The Holy Trinity of Rock n Roll
Geddy Lee
Alex Lifeson
Neil Peart
We never use the word RUSH in any negative manner whatsoever
We never say things like.........
No rush!! WRONG
No hurry!! CORRECT
YOU can't rush out of here!! WRONG
I can't speed out of here!! CORRECT
KIDS! Always gotta have pictures!
Try natural science studio next get ready to take off , Same with natural science be ready for the transitions
I love the warning
RUSH IS A COOL SONG
Cool person.
Thanks for a fun reaction. Always great to see some Rush on the channel. Love the enthusiasm, but the pauses do detract from the music a bit.
Alex lifesone is AMAZING GUITARIST
Working Man is them having a bit of fun. The album track doesn't have that reggae feel that they're goofing with here.
Wow youvare an amazing reactor
Nice reaction! I like your enthusiasm, I'm curious to see your next reactions to Rush songs, so I signed up! Soon! Greetings!!
Aaww thank you so much I am excited to check out more of their songs😂
Wait til you see them life! Geddy singin while playing bass and sometimes pedal synth while doing BOTH, Alex playing guitar and sometimes bass-pedals with his feet and one of the best drummers there was. Just unreached. And recently i watched a clip here where a "guitar player" rated the 10 most OVERrated guitarists and named Alex Lifeson. But he must be an expert cuz in the same row he named Frank Zappa and Steve Vai (kiddin' me???). To ME, as a guitarist, those people are GODS, but ok, everyone should have his opinion...Greets from Germany and keep on rocking!
Lol oops my bad...i shouldn't write comments during a reaction, but AFTER. So you SAW them live haha. Wrote my comment during the 1st song, so sorry for that small mistake! Nevermind...
You're adorable.
When you're finished with the Rush rabbit hole (that may take a good long time) check out Yes.
There would be no Rush without Yes.
The players in Rush say than you can almost dance to their music but you might hurt yourself doing it.
I just watched both your Rush reaction videos back to back. I'm glad to see how much you appreciate the great music that my favorite band puts out. It seems you're already falling in love with them. I've been listening to Rush for 40 years now, and to be honest with you, this album is one of my least favorite albums by Rush. I say that to let you know that you have much better music in store for you as you continue on down the Rush rabbit hole. Enjoy the journey because it is a magical one.
Get in the time Machine and be my girlfriend in high school...we would have seen Rush at least 5 Times !!!
Rutsey was OK but not Neil
Jon Anderson
I could tell you understood music the way your gestured. Friendly comment: you commentary is pertinent but a bit repetitive and long-winded. Looking forward to more Rush. Your life just changed.
I've seen quite a few reactions to the Cleveland version of Working Man, and I don't think I've ever seen so much joy being expressed by the reactor. You were a joy to watch throughout.
hahhaaha thank you i had a lot of fun that is why :)
Your vid keeps stopping bad 😢
The album version of Working Man is very different, much harder sound to it. Both versions are great.
To much saying Gorgeous
I'd describe "In The Mood" as "keger rock", because I imagine teens in the seventies at a keger when I hear it.
