They were gods among men in their own instruments, Having 3 of the best musicians ever in one band was just a joy to have.
What's absolutely insane is that they nailed this song on their very first attempt, when recording in the studio for the album.. Walk in, play the song, thank you goodbye.
Welcome to the RUSH rabbit hole. Easily the best 3 man band. Arguably the best Rock band, ever.
The rest of the world is finally catching up to what we already knew. That kind of talent doesn't exist any more. Thanks for the great reaction. You'll find the Rush army to be passionate and kind.

There is a reason, after seeing them for the first time, November 10th 1978 At the Sacramento memorial auditorium, That I went and saw them another 21 times. As far as I'm concerned, No 3 piece band ever Put out the kind of music that Rush did. These guys were incredible.
I was a 15 year old school band drummer in 1982 and my first concert was Rush on the Signals tour. My life changed that night. R.I.P. Neil and thank you for inspiring me and so many others.

By the way... I got to see them about 12 times. I feel blessed.
It certainly is an amazing coincidence that 3 of the greatest masters of their craft ended up in the same band. It was all down to attitude. No egos or drug problems to distract, just an appetite for hard work & the desire to be the best musicians that they could possibly be. 3 grounded family guys with an outstanding talent - Rush were the perfect storm.
That transition by Alex from top to bottom neck at 8:58 is just absolutely flawless, smooth like butter. And it always amuses me how, at 12:51, Geddy carefully tunes his keyboard to play a single note off of it.
Song recorded in 1 Take in 1977. The Exit, Stage Left video/live album was from 1981. Truly epic band, GOAT, big time! Check out 2112. You will be owned by Rush!
🤗 YYZ (Live in Rio) to see 3 old Dudes hold court! Geddy still sexy af on that Bass! 🤔 Was gonna put Working Man (Live in Cleveland) 😍 but secretly hoping for YYZ 🥰🐰 #RushFunFact 😉 The opening 'sequence is YYZ performed in morse code and what Alex heard over the headset landing in/out of Toronto Airport! YYZ are the call letters on your Luggage Tags like LAX (Los Angeles) or NYC (New York) 🤩
Great reaction to this epic track! "Xanadu" was inspired by a poem written by Samuel Coleridge upon his waking from an opioid induced dream. The poem deals with the desires of a man to become immortal, only to find that his immortality is more of an endless prison when he realizes that he is all alone in the world. Up next, "Tom Sawyer', official music video. 🏆🏆🏆

Great reaction... You will love them playing " YYZ" live
And they performed at this level into their sixties!
You should listen to the studio version. They recorded it outside in two takes. You can hear the natural echo off the distant hillsides, and birds singing while they played.
Just three great musicians making all that sound - AMAZING!!!
This is one epic performance of one epic song! Geddy and Alex met when they were 13 in junior high and became best friends and they are still best friends today. You see them joking around on stage alot. When Rush started out they had a different drummer John Rutsy but after their first album John could not tour for health reasons. Neil then auditioned and joined the band in 1974. Although John Rutsy was a competent drummer Neil was a better fit with Geddy and Alex's musical direction as well. 2112 please do the lyric or comic book version Working man live in Cleveland YYZ live in Rio Natural Science from the Molson Amphitheatre Toronto Cheers
They are master musicians. An unstoppable force.
You have to watch Neil's drum solo in Frankfurt. As a drummer you will be blown away.

Peart on 'Xanadu': "Let's call that our experimental phase ... we thought maybe we should add another musician. But then it was, no, let's expand our own arsenal ... Those albums ('A Farewell to Kings' and 'Hemispheres') are us learning to use all that ... When I look back on that it's an indulgent smile. We would later do better but there was nothing wrong with it." With 'Permanent Waves' (1980), Rush's songwriting was becoming as sharp as their playing on such highlights as 'The Spirit of Radio', 'Freewill', 'Entre Nous', and 'Jacob's ladder'.
I actually saw this tour in March of 81. I was in 10th grade and a guitar player. Incredible memory. Our band started playing a lot of Rush after that show.

The song Trees or Necromancer is really really good
The story of Xanadu comes from a poem by Samuel Taylor Coleridge called "Kubla Khan", which starts like so: In Xanadu did Kubla Khan A stately pleasure dome decree: Where Alph, the sacred river, ran Through caverns measureless to man Down to a sunless sea. The poem is about a man, Kubla Khan, who seeks the fountain of eternal youth in a paradise called Xanadu. In the song by Rush, he finds it, drinks the milk of Paradise, and becomes immortal. But the twist is that a thousand years later he's exhausted and despairing and hoping to find some way to break the spell and lay his soul to rest, as he has become a "mad immortal man". Neil Peart wrote most if not all the lyrics to Rush's songs, he was a learned, well-read man, spent a lot of his time reading backstage waiting for the concerts to start. Many of his lyrics are based on his readings, he was a huge fan of Ayn Rand (inspiring "The Trees", for instance), among other authors.

They were at their prime in their 20’s now try them still at their prime in their 50’s go listen Working man live in Cleveland or The garden from clockwork angels tour… two different but still epic performances
The first Rush song where synthesizers were an important part of the music, requiring each musician to use multiple instruments to achieve the effect they desired. Instruments used: .Alex Lifeson: double-necked Gibson electric guitar (one twelve-string, the other six-string) as well as synthesizer pedals. Geddy Lee: double-necked Rickenbacker 4080/12 guitar (bass and twelve-string guitar), as well as synthesizer pedals and keyboards plus vocals. Neal Pearl: percussion instruments (temple blocks, tubular bells, bell tree, glockenspiel, and wind chimes) in addition to his drum kit.
If you'd like to see another amazing performance from this show, I recommend ByTor and the SnowDog/In The End/In The Mood/2112 Grand Finale; Closer To The Heart and The Trees are also must-listens. Cheers from Canada! 🇨🇦 🎤 🎹 🎸 🥁 🎸 🔥 🔥 🔥
I consider myself very lucky to have seen them live many times. They take their music seriously, and they definitely give it their all in concert because they feel their fans deserve nothing but their best. There are many videos of Pearts drum solos out there. You should check them out. As for songs? There are too many to choose from. I would recommend just checking out a few from each decade.
Funny. I watch countless Rush reaction videos and so many younger generations use the word "Aliens'. They are a super group of virtuosos. That's why I saw them 43 times. It never gets old. Like me.

Hey...I know I've suggested a few songs to check out, they have a deep catalog. Their early music was great and each album, showed a new level of their growth and musicianship. Xanadu was another epic song, that displayed their talents. Do yourself a favor and go back to their beginning and experience their evolution. The first album, did not include Neil Peart. Finding My Way and Working Man are notable songs from that album. The following album, Fly By Night, showed a clear change in their progress. Fly By Night, Anthem, Making Memories and By-tor and The Snow Dog are great songs, to check out. Each time you listen to a song, for the first time, it's an experience that you will never forget.
Enjoyed Rush live, late 70s, early 80s@90s.. amazed each time by the professor and Crew!!,,,🤘
NP:Drums, Bells [Orchestra Bells], Tubular Bells, Temple Block [Temple Blocks], Wind Chimes, Bell Tree, Vibraslap, Triangle, Cowbell; GL:Bass, Guitar [Twelve String], Synthesizer [Mini Moog, Bass Pedal], Vocals; AL:Acoustic Guitar, Guitar [Electric, Classical], Synthesizer [Bass Pedal] all played on the album which Xanadu was taken from, 1977 record "A Farewell to Kings"
Now you're starting to understand why these guys are commonly referred to as 'The Holy Trinity'. Unmatched musical talent, and almost as important, pure joy in being together playing. (The alien 👽👽👽 discussion has been ongoing for several decades!! 😉🤫 ) For a modern band check out Crown Lands. They're a Canadian duo (both are big Rush fans) with some serious skills. Try Context: Fearless pt. 1. I think it's right up your alley.

Just a warning be ready to expect the unexpected from this band in a great way ,
A bit jealous you're just now seeing Neil. He changed my life as a drummer. Watch and learn as much as you can from him. You play his stuff, you can play anything
Xanadu is about a man searching for the fabled Xanadu with promices of spending eternity in paradice. That is the first part of the piece. The second part is 1000 years after he found it it and wishes he had a mortal life, as he has found that imortality is rather lonely. The song is based on the unfinished poem "Kubla Khan" written by Samuel Taylor Coleridge
Listen to the studio version. Sounds just like this. Seen em over 20 times. Tightest live band ever. Been to over 200 concerts since 74'. RUSH has dozens of kickass songs.
Epic indeed. Just amazing and awe inspiring. I remember Rushing out to buy the album after seeing Xanadu on The Old Grey Whistle Test
xandu is from a poem by coleridge. also the mansion in citizen kane the movie. coleridge poems were also used by iron maiden for rime of the ancient mariner
I have seen these 3 guys in Halifax , Nova Scotia, Canada in 1988(Power Windows Tour) Best 2 and a half hour concert ever!!!
Masterpiece!!!! ♥🎼🥁🎸🎹🎤🥁🎶🎶
Recommendation for future reactions: Working Man live in Cleveland, then YYZ live in Rio, then Natural Science live in Toronto (1997), then Headlong Flight (official video). And then, after that, we can get even more serious with your trip down the rabbit hole of no less than 19 studio albums’ worth of music.
I am very jealous of you discovering them for the first time with everything that they have to offer. For this 59 year old man I got to discover them when they were in their prime and it was all new to us older folks. Yes continue to keep putting out this content and we will enjoy them vicariously through your reaction. Keep up the good work and if you do make music yourself then I hope you keep this type of music alive and passing it to the newer generation. Thanks bro.

This song was written by Neal Peart, and is a sort of continuation of the Samuel Taylor Coleridge poem “Kubla Khan”.

Based on Kubla Khan (Xanadu) by Samuel Taylor Coleridge Coleridge composed his poem, ‘Kubla Khan’, in a state of semi-conscious trance either in the autumn of 1797 or the spring of 1798 and published in 1816. The whole poem is pervaded by an atmosphere of dream and remains in the form of a vision. The vision embodied in Kubla Khan was inspired by the perusal of the travel book, Purchas His Pilgrimage. Coleridge had taken a dose of opium as an anodyne, and his eyes closed upon the line in the book, “At Zanadu Kubla Khan built a pleasure palace.” But this opened his creative vision, and the poem of about 200 lines was composed in this state of waking dream. On being fully awake, he wrote the poem down. The theme of the poem is unimportant. It describes the palace built by Kubla Khan, the grandson of Chengis Khan, the great rule of central Asia.

What you may not have heard. Neil was also accompanying the guitarist while playing the glockenspiel. ( you referenced the chimes and tubular bells) During the guitar solo at the end, Geddy was playing the bottom half of his double neck which was a 12 string guitar. Both players used foot pedals, Geddy especially to insert bass tones or synths at times during the concert
Love RUSH!! Peace and Love from Canada
It’s a mythical place. This taken from a poem. Neil was a poet as well.
the first time I heard Temples of Cyrinx in about 1978, Geddy Lee scared me! I had never heard anything like that in my life! The music the three of them made was phenomenal even if it had been performed by half a dozen members, but from three guys was amazing; I saw them four or five times live, and it's bands like that sold out arenas for entire tours - days and music gone bye...
Awesome. My favorite RUSH song. In Peart's lyrics, the narrator describes searching for a place called "Xanadu" that will grant him immortality. After succeeding in this quest, a thousand years pass, and the narrator is left "waiting for the world to end", describing himself as "a mad immortal man". The song is based on the poem Kubla Khan written by Samuel Taylor Coleridge. Although the song does not explicitly state where "Xanadu" is, references to Kubla Khan imply that it is a mythical place based on Shangdu, the historical summer capital of the Mongol Empire. There are so many great tunes from RUSH. But, you should try Limelight, Tom Sawyer, Subdivisions, and Spirit of Radio. Great channel man.
CINEMA SHOW AND SUPPERS READY VIBES GOING ON HERE
All such amazing preformers - I love the "black sabbath"y chunky guitar at 11:53... Almost a nod to the sabbath at the time. That outtro guitar solo is soooooo good. Catch the induction to the hall of fame that taylor and Dave did for rush - it got me choked up. Super great reaction!
In Xanadu did Kubla Khan A stately pleasure-dome decree: Where Alph, the sacred river, ran Through caverns measureless to man Down to a sunless sea. So twice five miles of fertile ground With walls and towers were girdled round; And there were gardens bright with sinuous rills, Where blossomed many an incense-bearing tree; And here were forests ancient as the hills, Enfolding sunny spots of greenery. But oh! that deep romantic chasm which slanted Down the green hill athwart a cedarn cover! A savage place! as holy and enchanted As e’er beneath a waning moon was haunted By woman wailing for her demon-lover! And from this chasm, with ceaseless turmoil seething, As if this earth in fast thick pants were breathing, A mighty fountain momently was forced: Amid whose swift half-intermitted burst Huge fragments vaulted like rebounding hail, Or chaffy grain beneath the thresher’s flail: And mid these dancing rocks at once and ever It flung up momently the sacred river. Five miles meandering with a mazy motion Through wood and dale the sacred river ran, Then reached the caverns measureless to man, And sank in tumult to a lifeless ocean; And ’mid this tumult Kubla heard from far Ancestral voices prophesying war! The shadow of the dome of pleasure Floated midway on the waves; Where was heard the mingled measure From the fountain and the caves. It was a miracle of rare device, A sunny pleasure-dome with caves of ice! A damsel with a dulcimer In a vision once I saw: It was an Abyssinian maid And on her dulcimer she played, Singing of Mount Abora. Could I revive within me Her symphony and song, To such a deep delight ’twould win me, That with music loud and long, I would build that dome in air, That sunny dome! those caves of ice! And all who heard should see them there, And all should cry, Beware! Beware! His flashing eyes, his floating hair! Weave a circle round him thrice, And close your eyes with holy dread For he on honey-dew hath fed, And drunk the milk of Paradise. Samuel Coleridge.
The bells Neil is hitting are called tubular bells.
