See I was just going to say that I like it better with Neal. I think that you need to hear both versions and make your decision

In the mid-`970s, EVERY garage band played this song! It was one of the songs that turned people with even the slightest bit of musical interest and talent on to Rush. Then Fly by Night and Caress of Steel (an album that doesn't get anywhere the respect it deserves,) and finally 2112 that cemented Rush in the hearts of anyone who played, or wanted to play an instrument.

This is the song that put Rush on the map in the USA. A station DJ and director in Cleveland began playing this regularly and the rest is history.

This is where it all began for Rush. I remember when they started playing it on the Buzzard in Cleveland. That was when we actually listened to the radio. When there was DJ's and radio stations. I miss those days.

How come nobody ever does "Passage To Bangkok" from 2112? That has to be the grooviest Rush song ever........

I wish you were around 40 years ago !!! I couldn't find a girl who would even listen to them !!! Lmao. My picks for you are Between the Wheels Red Sector A Xanadu !!! My favorite The Pass Available Light !! Any and all !! Thnx for sharing your energy !! And you're beautiful !! Hope that isn't out of line !!!

RIP Neil your MAGICAL DRUM SET is now HEAVENLY!!!!!! 😪

Thats exactly how I listen to classic rock... when nobody's around

This is Rush's first hit, off of their first album. The drummer is their original drummer John Rutsey. Neil Peart was hired after this albums release, because the rest of the band and management had health concerns for John and his diabetes, and ability to tour, at the time .

The live version of this from the time machine tour live in Cleveland, will blow you away!

The best version, awesome!

You need to see this live on All The Worlds A Stage. There's also live versions of this with original drummer John Rutsey.

This is the song that broke them into the big time. A station in Cleveland played the "B" side of a single. OMG. Now I know how crazy I looked rocking out to Rush...in the 80's. Fills the need for speed. LOVE IT!

also on this album "Finding my way" "In the mood" and "what you're doing" are all great tunes.

From their 1st album the Drummer is John Rutsey this is before Neil Peart became the drummer.

This is very early Rush. That is John Rutsey on Drums. Just about a year or so later Neil Peart joined and they remained in the lineup of....Geddy Lee, Alex Lifeson and Neil Peart until they called it quits after 40 plus years. Alex Lifeson and Geddy actually started in school in around 1967 ish, Rutsey was there about '68ish, Peart who is the final drummer "with all those drums" joined in 1974. That is when Rush's sound slowly started to change and Peart would take over for the lyrics. His lyrics, are really some of the most intelligent lyrics in all of Rock. Personally, I would visit their 1981 concert in Montreal. Some good moments you can react to are The Trees & Xanadu kzread.info/dash/bejne/qY1lxrOpkpi5n7w.html Peart talks in that particular clip for a moment

@@neillenet291 There was nothing wrong with John, he had to leave the band for health reasons. They were fated to be with Peart though and that is where it went. Its sort of like Zeppelin and Terry Reid. Although, Terry Reid never joined the band (Jimmy Page wanted him) Reid decided to suggest Robert Plant. In the U.K, Terry Reid was above any other vocalist. He turned that gig down and he was also offered a Deep Purple job, he turned it down. The rest is history. The Beatles with Pete Best. Its very interesting to go over these past events and wonder "what if"...

Al Meyer I know it’s John Rutsey. My point was it’s probably not obvious to Cash that it’s a different drummer. Look who I’m responding to, it’s not the OP.

You are definitely getting to be a RUSH fan!! 🤟🤙🤟🤙😋😋😋 💜💜💜

The entire 2112 album is mad dope

I love watching you. You are me 40 years ago sweetie. Us Rush fans felt like we were all alone out there! My name is Wendy and you are my sister!! They have been my heroes for ever. Thank you for giving my boys a chance.

It is clear that music is your passion... and that passion can be contagious!

It's always a joy to hear this song! This is the one that got them onto the music scene. A radio station in Detroit put it on because it was long and the DJ could step away for a few minutes, and everyone started calling in wanting to know who the group was. They built up a following in Detroit, the studios noticed, and they went on for another 40 years! It was bittersweet seeing them in that last concert when they ended with this song. Sweet because it's one of their classics. Bitter because it was the last song of their last tour.

Robert, it was actually a dj in Cleveland, though they are much loved in Detroit and the rest of Michigan too

"Anthem" by Rush . It's about the philosophy of Any Rand. Right up your alley.

Just think, outside of the best drummer in the world, there is only two other people making all this sound. Two! Love these guys.

Time to check out one of THE most versatile female singers on the planet. Rock, pop, belt mixed voice, chest voice, head voice, growl, classical.......and she can sing in at least a half dozen languages. She is a 6'1" goddess named, Floor Jansen and she fronts the band, "Nightwish". "Ghost Love Score", live from Wacken in 2013 will blow your mind as it's one of the best live vocal performances evahhhhh......

A lead guitarist, a bass player and an insanely genius drummer wrapping their instruments around each other in a melodic herringbone chain of multiple eargasms.

Congratulations on 20K. Can you believe it- this is where Rush started from, and what a journey they took us on. Scribe you are a rocker, no questions about that. Rock on!

Xanadu - Exit Stage Left (Live video 1981)

Congrats Scribe on meeting your 20k goal. Great video on Working Man, one of my fave Rush songs, grew up with this song near and dear to my heart while growing up in a blue collar town in northern Wisconsin in the 70's.

I love watching your vids of Rush. You make me like and see the songs in a really fresh way. Seeing someone else loving its cleverness and fun. they are good tunes man

Yup Ms ScribeCash, as @Steve Bass aludes, this was the song which propelled then into mainstream when it was played on Radio station WMMS. Kinda randomly chosen at the outset because it was long enough to allow the DJ to go for a bathroom break (no kidding). With Cleveland being an industrial city the folks identified with the lyrics and it became a favourite. Congrats on 20K, and keep up the good work lass...

Great, now that you've heard the studio version, listen to Working man live in Cleveland. It's next level!

Well deserved applause. That is a great rock song! What a perfect way to celebrate 20k subs!

You gained a fan today. Love the energy! You right, this song is preaching! We can all relate to the "working man"

I love the debut album. Lotta smokers on this record, and deceptively funky at times.

FYI, the first album has a different drummer. Rutsey wasn't as flashy and skilled as Peart, but he's also not as rigid, which again, is why this record has a certain funk about it.

Rush rocks period. Way to go on the 20 k subs. This is the song that started it all for them. Love it ☮️

Nice work I certainly appreciate your video's I have found myself looking forward to what jams your going to have one each day so thank you

CONGRATULATIONS!! Baby girl!! 20k plus. You got a "Whole Lotta Love"

Congrats on the 20k. And I love that funk face on the break.

John Rutsey on drums which was the original drummer and an original founder of the band. Poor guy got cut from the band just before their first tour. He had a drinking problem and diabetes which he wasn't taking care of and they decided he needed to stay home and get himself together because they didn't want to be responsible for him dying out on the road and entre Neil Peart and the rest is history. Just 3 20 year old kids on this btw. U should find the live version of this at a Canadian highschool either in late 1973 or very early 1974 when they still had john behind the drum kit and before their first tour. It really shows just how freaking talented they are even at that point. Just 3 20 year old kids playing in a school and they performed like a professional band already.

Love how you interpret the songs......you're right on.... new sub....

And just think, on every track that follows this album, the drum set gets WAY more magical.

You should really check this one out live in Cleveland. Great reaction as always. Love them. Also would really love to see you rockin it out to my fav band ACDC.

Listening to all music broadens the mind, but you always are drawn back to Rock

Congratulations young lady hitting the 20K subscribe mark.

Reaction videos are always the first ten years of Rush, I wish people would react to the more recent stuff AFTER Moving Pictures

We are ready for The Necromancer

the song is called ThunderStruck from there 1990 album The Razors Edge.

you look like a natural drummer :) and you seem to have a lot of passion for it

Oh my goodness! You absolutely crack me up woman! "I almost blew my back out playin' air guitar doin' that!" Heart and soul! Too funny! Congrats on the 20k. You're destined for so much more. Keep rockin'!

Thanks for reacting to this one. I had bought that album back in the day. Excellent album.. After listening again I can feel this song influenced AD/DC. Which is a good thing if you ask me...Keep up the good work Scribe.... Rush is a multigenerational band...

Love it!!!!

I told you the Rush fans would get you to 20k. Please do Xanadu by Rush.

The first album had a different drummer than the next 33. Check out a live version of this song for a real look at this outstanding band!

This is the song that launched them into the American market. Beyond the Lighted Stage is an excellent documentary that follows their career from their childhood days to their next to last album. Well worth the watch.

It's a sad story, This is their original drummer, John Rutsey, he had to lave the band shortly after this album was released due to Diabeties. He passed in 2008 at the age of 55 from complications of the disease.

Best reaction ever.
