Welcome to the world of Rush, where your ears and mind will be blown; you've got arguably one of the best guitarists, bassists, and a man who will forever be considered one of the greatest drummers of all time ... in one room making incredible music.

Neil Peart my not be your favorite drummer. But he is your favorite drummer's favorite drummer. RIP Professor.

This is a quote from drummer Neil Peart, who co-wrote the lyrics: "Tom Sawyer was a collaboration between myself and Pye Dubois, an excellent lyricist who wrote the lyrics for Max Webster. His original lyrics were kind of a portrait of a modern day rebel, a free-spirited individualist striding through the world wide-eyed and purposeful. I added the themes of reconciling the boy and man in myself, and the difference between what people are and what others perceive them to be—namely me, I guess."

This song is Neil Peart's (drummer & lyricist) modern adaptation of Twains original story.
It's about young men like you and me, & how we navigate our way through todays world.
"Todays Tom Sawyer".
The location was a recording studio in Quebec Canada, where Rush (Canadian band) recorded a lot of this album.
The studio, Le Studio, is no longer there.

Only three band members made all that music mind blowing. Seen them many times in concert . Best drummer I have ever seen in my life Neil Peart rest in peace

Its RUSH, just three musical masters that together make up the best band in the world.

Tom Sawyer is an icon. Rush’s song begins, “Today’s Tom Sawyer…” so it’s not about the old Tom Sawyer, it’s embracing what a modern Tom Sawyer might be.

It’s Morin Heights north of Montreal. A studio in the Laurentians where many bands recorded ie.The Police,David Bowie etc..

Oh shit dude! You just stepped into another rabbit hole. This one is 50 years deep. Rush never had a #1 hit but sold out arenas around the world. Each player is considered by many to be one of the top players. Guitar Player Magazine eventually had to change their yearly poll from "Who is the best rock bass player?" to "Who is the best rock bass player, other than Geddy?"

"Though his mind is not for rent.... to any God or Government.... always hopeful yet discontent.... knows changes aren't permanent.... but change is." This is one of my all-time favorite song lyrics.

Geddy Lee was playing bass, keyboard, and providing vocals. Amazing.

Rush concerts were the best. Rush was the band that held the audience captive. People sat and listened. The thinking man's band.

Rush is freaking unbelievable, big rabbit hole

Hey, my friend, RUSH was always the thinking man's prog-rock band, enjoy 40 years of great Canadian rock!

1981 release. Canadian bands of 3 Neil Peat on  drums and written most lyrids
Geddy Lee plays bass  keyboards and singer.  Alex Lifeson guitars

Hey man....I gotta say. I love that you put yourself out there and open yourself to music you know very little about. I don't mind you doing your research on your show. You want to know the details, but still go in blind. It has made me subscribe.

just amazing the sound that only the three of them put out

They are playing at Le Studio, outside of Montreal  Quebec. Iconic Canadian prog rock band were together for forty years, known world wide.  Geddy Lee, vocals, bass, keyboards, Alex Lifeson, guitar, Neil Peart, drummer and wrote all their lyrics, He was considered one of the greatest drummers ever.  R.I.P. Neil we miss you

They're Canadian it was recorded there. Rush is one of the greatest rock trios in the world and their drummer Neil Peart (RIP) was one of the greatest drummer's to ever live earning the nickname "The Professor" because no matter how good a drummer was Neil could take them to school and teach them new thing's also he played drums with clinical precision.

Rush is from Canada 🇨🇦 You have to see Xanadu the studio version & Concert version off the hook
