He took the gift Neil gave us all and put it perfect use, not the Steering Wheel “Kit” I’ve played since receiving my license in ‘83, (key: “I like to play!” from Garth). Tell me we wouldn’t ALL be on board for Joel receiving The Call? He speaks the “Pratt” language we only WISH we could 👍🏻 and would be thee perfect “Tribut-Teer”, Cheers!!!

Really good cover. The professor can not be duplicated fully. He hits it just a little slightly different than no matter how perfect you are on each role hitting of the snare just a little slight difference. I have yet to hear someone do it exactly the way he does it very close very very close. Still is just a little off. With that said great job but not so duplicatable perhaps he holds the stick just a little bit differently or the head itself is just a little bit different. You just can tell if it’s Pearts 👍

I remember when This drummer Joel played in a talent show in high school I think it was his junior year...... my Senior year.... I remember how amazing his artistry sounded back then (we knew we were witnessing something and someone special)..... The auditorium erupted when he finished his show.... Joel great work i will always remember the love for Rush we all had and still have... I love Neil and you did him right with this and many other performances!!!! Keep up the amazing work Neil was and will always be my drum King!!! But you make me happy with this release!!!!

I don't know who this man is, but as a Rush fan since 1978 (I was 13), this is by far the BEST playing of Peart's compositions I have ever heard. I never attempted drumming, but was captivated at a young age by Neil's playing. He was the biggest reason of the trio for Rush being my favorite band of all time. Most Rush cover bands/drummers I turn off in less than 1 minute. I could not stop this until it was over. I think I MAY have heard 1 mistake. Only thing missing was an abbreviated solo. So, please tell this man I'm in awe of his talent. Give this man one of Neil's sets made from that Romanian oak they found in the bog!

That was amazing, Neil would have loved it. R.I.P Neil

I am so terribly sad. A very well done cover in memory, it shows the work Neil Peart put into his music. I lost someone I truly was inspired by and kept me sane. 25 years a fan of RUSH, each member a wonderful person and so incredibly talented. Alex, Geddy and Neil will never play together again. I am glad for the body of work they left behind.

A perfect tribute! Discovering this the day after finding out the passing of the Professor. I teared up. I first heard of Rush with the opening notes of 2112 on a cassette recorder back in the day. Thank you Joel, Neil would smile at this from above.

This is the best tribute by far that has ever been made to the art of Neil Peart and the best of all is that perhaps at the time when it was published Neil saw it. RIP Professor we will miss you very much.

There are understandably many more tributes around as of this day but I cannot think of a better one than this. Magnificent job sir.

Can I press "like" button a million times? Amazing!!!!

I'm not a drummer, but I admire the effort and skill to preform the way you have here. I got emotional when you reached the transition from Tom Sawyer to Red Barchetta. Yes, I cried, I can admit it! This is a phenomenal tribute, the best I have seen yet. Thank you for putting in the time to present this. I am of course saddened by the loss of Neil yet joyful at the idea that all his work will continue to inspire drummers for decades to come.

The Professor, is smiling upon you...ferocious, graceful and masterful. Thank you for the good tears that rolled down my face.

INCREDIBLE...!!! THANK U FOR THAT TRIBUTE....Mr. Peart was my inspiration. RIP my good friend.

Watching someone else play these parts with as much consistency and accuracy shows just how musical Neil Peart really is. Bravo, sir... You NAILED IT

Awesome tribute. That medley of songs just reinforced to me what a huge loss to music Neil's death is. RIP.

I close my eyes and listen, I would lose a bet because you'd tell me it is Neil and I would believe you, he got every detail, even the sound. Having grown up listening to Rush as my favorite band, being the closest thing to a mad fan and having always been more drawn to drums, I'm on the edge of my chair awaiting for every special fill, and he nails it perfectly every time. If Geddy and Alex wanted to tour again, this guy would not let them down.

great job. I'll bet even Neil is looking down with a smile. He so inspired many generations of us drummers. I first saw RUSH during the 2112 Tour and I have been hooked ever since. The "Professor" is desperately missed!

RIP NEIL (1/2019) It was because of you... I picked up a pair of drumsticks.

This is an extremely classy tribute from an extremely classy drummer sponsored by an extremely classy company. Thank you Paiste!

You are a damn good student of THE PROFESSOR! For those who were unable to see Neil play live...I am truly sad. He was a gift to us all. This "One Little Video" does well at capturimg the essence of Neil's craft. Purely awesome! 🤘😎🤘
