Remembering Neil Peart 'The Professor' of Rush - ‎September 12, 1952 to January 7, 2020

Forming in the same year as King Crimson and Black Sabbath was a Canadian Prog Rock band called Rush. Although the band formed in 1968, the man who would become known as The Professor didn’t join the band until 1974.

The Professor would eventually be recognised as one of the greatest drummers, and lyrical composers of all time. He would also help to see Rush elevated to Prog Rock legends. That man was Neil Peart.

Neil Peart completely changed how Rush would approach songwriting. Whilst singer and bass player Geddy Lee along with guitarist Alex Lifeson would focus on pushing the band’s blues-rock sound, Neil Peart would begin to write epic tales of science fiction and fantasy that would lead to some of the most complex song arrangements of the time.

Peart would become the band’s principal lyricist and ultimately their biggest driving force.
