On Rush's first studio album recording, John Rutsey was the drummer. Neil joined the band on their Rush's first tour of the album. Working Man live in Cleveland is a must see. The energy displayed on stage is off the charts and it's not just Alex soloing in the Cleveland version, Geddy does a bass solo with Alex.
I got to see them in Dayton Ohio at her arena. I think the cult opened up for them.
The song you thought about was Black diamond by KISS.
This was John Rutsy on drums. He was their first drummer but he was Diebetic and being a teenager he didn't take care of himself and management was leary about him spending time on the road. Neil joined the band shortly after.
Working man live in Cleveland is a must now. You will see three guys in their 50's rocking just as hard as they did in their 20's.
Cheers
Be sure to check out the Live in Cleveland version of this song from the Time Machine Tour. An Epic performance.
Rush is my favorite band❤
I Wish you heard the Live in Cleveland version. I can't describe the greater experience.
John Rutsey was their first drummer. Neil does pay him tribute in future performances.
John Rutsey on drums. He doesn’t get enough credit. RIP 💔
Can't wait for you to do this Live in Cleveland and see 3 senior citizens absolutely destroy this after a 2 hour and 45 minute show...these boys are not like others.
he already did the Cleveland one
Yeah this is John Rutsey on drums. Rutsey's brother came up with the band name. Neil Peart came in after this album.
In early 1974, a copy of the first Rush record came from Canada to a radio station in Cleveland, Ohio... a DJ there looked at one of the longer songs to put on the air so that she could take a bathroom break while it played 😂 That song was 'Working man'... and it was the perfect track for the area at the time, which was a working class city. The response from listeners was immediate, but confusing... they thought it was a new Led Zeppelin record! The DJ's answering the radio station's phones had to explain that it was a Canadian band named Rush. Copies of the first Rush album were in huge demand in Cleveland as a result.
Geddy Lee and Alex Lifeson were friends in high school and would often get together and jam... Alex Lifeson was the guitarist in a band named Rush, and he asked Geddy to join the band when they had a gig to play and no one to play bass and sing. John Rutsey was the drummer. This was in the late 60's... Rush made a name for themselves playing school events cos they were still teenagers in high school. Geddy and Alex also started writing original songs in the early 70's, as Rush started playing the Toronto bars in 1971 when the legal drinking age in Canada was lowered to 18. It enabled Geddy, Alex and John to practice their chops and develop their sound. Songs like "Finding my way"... 'In the mood'... "What you're doing"... came together in that time...
A Toronto manager named Ray Danniels saw Rush live and offered to manage them... In 1973, Rush had enough songs for an album, but no record companies were interested... so, Danniels financed the recording of the first Rush album and released it independently on his own imprint Moon Records in 1974. The members of Rush had also decided to quit school and not graduate... focusing all their time on the band.
Just as 'Working man' was getting radio airplay in Ohio and the first Rush album was selling in that area, Mercury Records (based in Chicago) heard the buzz around Rush... loved the first Rush record and opted to sign the band and bring them to the USA for shows. Members of Kiss also loved the record and the band Rush... they were offered to tour w/ Kiss in 1974/ '75. Producer Terry Brown was enlisted to re-mix the first Rush record and re-release it in 1974 on Mercury Records... Brown would produce all of Rush's albums until 1982.
With the first Rush record being internationally released in 1974 and an American tour being booked as an opening band... Rush were ready to go, but drummer John Rutsey was not enthusiastic about the changes... Their managers also noticed that Rutsey was not healthy (he was a diabetic, he drank and wasn't taking care of himself) and were concerned that he wouldn't last on tour w/ weeks on the road... Rush opted to replace him before the tour.
John Rutsey passed away in 2008.
Neil Peart was working at his dad's farm machinery parts store when he was contacted by Rush's managers about auditioning for the band on drums... He had never heard of Rush or their music, but was encouraged to try out... Geddy and Alex thought that Neil was 'goofy' but he played incredibly... So, he was chosen to be the drummer for the tour and joined the band. Neil said he liked the band members and got into their music... While on tour, Geddy and Alex noticed that Neil was a heavy reader and very opinionated... and they thought he could write better lyrics for the band so that Geddy and Alex could concentrate on the music. Neil was up for the challenge and contributed lyrics to the 2nd Rush album 'Fly by night' in 1975, along w/ his drumming skills.
,, before they were signed,recorded it themselves.. The DJ in Cleveland put them on the U.S. airways and soon they had a good recording contract.$$
@@scottwilson7835 Actually, Rush had a terrible contract w/ Mercury Records at the time. The A&R guy who signed them was Cliff Burnstein (who manages Metallica now) and he loved Rush's music... But the record executives didn't get them at all. Their royalty rate was low... by the time 'Caress of Steel' was released, they were flopping in sales and heavily in debt.
When the label heard '2112' (which they reluctantly funded) they didn't get it all.
It was the fans that made that record a success by 1977 without any big radio promotion. Only then did Mercury Records take them seriously.
@@sumonjamal1653 Hey, IDK who, what, when or where you got your information from but there's a lot of misconceptions here way off track my friend. (No pun intended) Blah,ha,ha!!! Don't you know already just bcuz you heard it or read it on Google doesn't make it true? If you don't know now you know!
@@216Numbskull 👈That fits u 🤣
My account came from the band themselves and the people involved from the documentary that Rush sanctioned personally.
And since u don't seem to have a credible counter-narrative (or a functioning brain 🤣) I suggest u jump into a cold lake 👉
(And don't bother coming out...) 😈
G.O.A.T. Greatest band that ever did it on and off the stage. Most technically proficient band in rockn roll history!
The composition tied the lyrics and the music to the actual repetition of a working man's life. Low key brilliant.
Now you need to see the live version from Cleveland in 2011.
Working Man live in Cleveland
The thing people don’t realize is how phenomenal Getty Lee is on the bass guitar❤😂🎉
So nice to have the younger generation appreciate the rock music of the 70's. The 60's got the movement going, the 70's was the golden era that catapulted rock music into the stratosphere. You have a lot to explore, sir, because the 70's was the most explosive decade, in my humble opinion. Grand Funk Railroad, Led Zeppelin, The Who, UFO, Queen, David Bowie, Heart, Foghat, Aerosmith, and on and on it goes. We'll guide you along the way. LOL Thanks again for the excellent reaction video.
Watch the later version, working man, live in Cleveland , they change it up, but you will be amazed. The Alex solo gets even better and neil’s reaction at the end is worth watching by itself.
Not Neil here. John Rutsey is the original drummer only on the first album.
If you've seen the animated video for The Spirit of Radio (and you absolutely should, even if you can't do an official reaction to it), they show a woman named Donna Halper (I think)...........she was the first person to put a Rush album on in the US, and this was the song she chose. She helped make them huge in Cleveland (working class) with this song. Hats off to Donna!
Check out Working Man live in Cleveland !!!!
indeed a claasic when i was a metal kid in the 80 s yes
This was from their first album and it was before Neal Peart joined the band as their drummer and he was the one that wrote the majority of lyrics for all their songs from the second album to the last, 18th album they did. That's why the lyrics seemed simpler to you because they were written by the original drummer John Rutsey along with Geddy Lee.
Couple of facts you may not know. Even though John rutsey played the drums on the studio recording of this album it was Neil Pier that played this album through the entire concert to her he joined the band 2 weeks before they went on tour. Also this first tour of theirs they were opening up for none other than Kiss. Gene Simmons heard Rush's album and really like them, he thought they sounded like a Canadian Led Zeppelin. Angine personally asked for them to be the opening act on Kiss's tour. I'm not sure if it was the Canadian only part of the tour, or if they were with Kiss through the us as well on this tour. But I'm sure one of your other listeners hear can answer that for us.
Time to get into some serious Rush, this is the song I recommend to all newbie-Tom-Sawyer fans, Natural Science...!!!!! Pure Genius, need to react ASAP.
This was the song that broke them in the US, and it was in Cleveland. The DJ played it and the working class people of Ohio went nuts for it. All history (and a lot of hard work) from there.
I had some good friends and roomates who were a couple from Cleveland and when the city announced that the new Rock and Roll Hall of Fame would be built there, my friends were ecstatic!
At the time, in the early 80s, I was straying from pop music cuz it started to suck. I was very open to new tunes that pop music hadn't provided in my little tiny "city" in the mountains. One of the roommates was a music teacher.
When I got home from work each night, he would have an album teed up and we'd play cribbage or hacky sack for hours while he would tell me all about the songs we listened to. I learned a boatload about the music industry and musician debauchery like Keith Moon stories from him and as a musician myself, I really appreciated his knowledge and the excitement when playing his favorite songs. I found the absolute best rock musicians in the world through him. Anyway, your comment reminded me of a pivitol time in my lifelong love of music. Thank you!
@@MagravatorMag Hi Magravated, great to read all the comments about Cleveland changing Rush's radio trajectory. Also, I enjoyed hearing about your specific musical journey. There's so much great (less known) music, most of us need help. I had many similar experiences, where knowledgable individuals took the time to recomend music, and changed my life. Also, I love Comments that mention Keith Moon!
Check out “ here again” off that same album” Geddy’s vocals will blow your mind...
It's interesting you would say "Alex didn't have solos."
If you listen closely to any of the "solos" that occur on
most any of their pieces, you will most likely hear THREE
solos happening. When Alex takes the spotlight, enjoy it,
and then listen AGAIN to the bass work, listen AGAIN and
enjoy the intricacies of drum work. Then listen one more
time as to how it all fits together and realize you are listening
to greatness, listening to pure genius.
Enjoy the rabbit hole!
The Kiss song l believe is Black Diamond.
Awe man ,! You should've done the live version. Try the song Natural Science from the Molsen Amphitheater concert next !
as a working man speaking to you as a working man keep up the good work brother
I have always thought the composition is the story itself. It starts and ends the same way, mirroring the day to day working man grind.While the middle instrumental is what he would rather be doing; living his life better.
Simplicity, get some rest come home from work, relax and then do it all over again. The working man! Take pride in that. Nice reaction!!!
Was hoping to would check out the song facts and discover that wasn't Neil Peart. As others have said, this was original drummer John Rutsey. He was eased out of the band shortly after the band recorded their debut album. The official story is that management believed that given his severe diabetes and the rigors and temptations of the road, that if he went on tour, he would come home in a box. There has also long been a rumor that since Rutsey had a real "meat and potatoes" style of drumming, that his drum style wouldn't fit the more prog musical direction that Geddy and Alex wanted to pursue, so he was pushed out.
Have a listen to workingman Live In Cleveland this is fire 🔥 with a twist
Another early Rush song you might dig is "Garden Road."
Have you tried "Temples of Syrinx" yet?
When this song was first played on the radio in Cleveland, people were flooding the station with phone calls wanting to know what was that new Led Zepplin song they just heard.
In the song's ending, the tempo grinds down slower and slower as the "working man" has run out of energy at the end of a long hard day of work. He tumbles into bed and falls asleep, just in time for the alarm clock to rouse him out of bed (Alex shredding on the guitar) telling him it's time to start the working day all over again.
Glad that you appreciate their talent. Their physical ability matches their writing. The arrangements never leave you bored or hoping for the next verse, or worse yet, the end of the song. lol Thanks man!
Rush is one of three Bands with the strongest following, (decade after decade), yet none had a true "Frontman". I'm thinking of Rush, Greatful Dead, and Pink Floyd. Fans were loyal, going to every show, and these three bands were all about playing extraordinary music, and respecting their fans. Not into "showmanship" (though Floyd did have a big light-stage show), but nobody was jumping around on stage. Try listening to Greatful Dead's "China Cat Sunflower/I Know You Rider".
Original drummer John Rutsey was a good friends of theirs, they didn't want to let him go but poor dude was getting sick on tour and having a hard time of it, which is understandable driving all over creation in a crappy van with a few other dudes for months, it's a tough life and not for everyone but Rush fans still love John, dude was a member of Rush on the first album and he killed it! Funny you said you may have heard that extended outro style from Kiss as Rush toured with Kiss early in their careers, seems an odd combo, and it is, but they got along great, while on tour together Rush would watch baseball games in their hotel rooms while Kiss would be having wild, sexy parties in their hotel rooms haha
Early Rush is so fun. If I could go back in time, I would have loved to have been "on the ground" when the Rush buzz started in Cleveland, in 1974! That would have been cool to watch people actually start freaking out about that first Rush album because they were so young and full of energy, you know. I bet that was a fun vibe in 1974 as people started getting turned on to them!
Actually a Hard Rock Masterpiece by Prog Rock Legends
I'd like to recommend you react to From Now On by a band called Band-Maid. It's an instrumental piece. Don't be put off by the fact that they are an all female band that dress as maids. They have serious skills and rock hard! A lot of their fans are older guys like me who love Rush, Led Zep, etc.
🎸🥁 🎸
Check out Kenny wayne Shepard “Voodoo Child Live”.
🤣😂🤣 no no no …
1. RUSH
2. RUSH
3. RUSH
Zep is a distant 5th and there is no 4th.
3 G.O.A.T’s in this band!!!
🐐🐐🐐
Listen to Working Man Live in Cleveland to prove the point … this was done at the end of RUSH’s career🤟🏾🤟🏾🤟🏾
"Go, Alex! Go, Alex!" Oh, just you wait a few seconds. While I like the studio version of this solo better, the bass playing by Geddy on the live in Cleveland video is out of this world.
Well, by now you know why Neil is not dominating this song, lol. But, he absolutely crushes it when RUSH plays this song in concert. Please do more songs from this debut album. Even though Neil isn't in the band for this one, the whole album is a banger! 😄
psssstttttt, that's not Neil
Sounds like you’re a great American “
You RUSH CHECK OUT There Drummer NEIL PERT/Who Has Been Called The Best DUMMER In The WORLD, Listen To His SOLO !!!
Put rush in the gym headphones
Your getting somewhat close to understanding the VAST sea of ROCK....but your no where near ready to be making the best of all lists! lol...REAL TALK!
Trade the gym for ju-jitsu, Japanese or Brazilian. This will get people in your life. The Rush Army is here for a 2-year tour, then we're outta here. Take care.
Not neal probably
👦👨🏻🧑🏻
Y u keep pausing on the solos🤬🤬🤬🤬
Funny you said the ending sounded like Kiss. Rush used to tour with Kiss back in the day. They were big fans of Rush and had them warm them up on tours so the ending which I believe Rush did first was also copied by Kiss.
