My mom used to run in the same circle of friends when they were teenagers. She claimed he was a nice and quiet guy. I guess his drumming did the talking for several decades. Definitely one of the greatest drummers ever and he will be missed.

An innovator, a trend setter, a breaker of the mold. Took the art of rock/jazz drumming from the days of Buddy Rich's 4 piece to the monster he mastered. Few these days aim to go the direction of Neil Peart, but none can deny the influence he had over the direction of the craft.
Even if you never were a fan of Rush, even if you look at 50 piece drumsets as the equivalent of Golden Corral vs Ruth's Chris, even if the entire era of his music makes you want to gag, I guarantee you've never listened to pop culture music since 1990 that isn't in some way inspired by him. How many drummers does it take to change a lightbulb?
Five. One to change the bulb, and 4 to tell him Neil Peart would've done it better. RIP to the best drummer of all time |
