    ‘Permanent Waves’, Rush’s seventh studio album, was originally released in January 1980, and its forward-thinking music signaled a new direction for the Canadian band as it entered a new decade. The six songs encompassing the album encapsulated the breadth of Rush’s formidable progressive chops meshed with its knack for creating radio-friendly arrangements, all elements that were embedded within the grooves of their previous album, 1978’s widely acclaimed Hemispheres. ‘Permanent Waves’ also signified Rush’s first of many recording sessions at Le Studio in Morin-Heights, Quebec, which was at one point nicknamed the trio’s own personal Abbey Road recording studio.

      I lost my friend to brain cancer last year. I then heard "Afterimage" and read how Neil mourned after his friend's death and wrote the song. Then after 3 months, his (my friend's) mother passed away of grief & cancer. Just a week later, Neil passed away to brain cancer as well. Neil was the person whose work consoled me during those times & made me feel I am not alone. And then he himself passed away , that too of brain cancer. He had already passed through hell after his daughter and wife had passed away.
      So yes I can feel others' sorrows & sufferings. And before tagging someone as "virtual signalling" or being "overemote" , kindly shut up & stop being a bully.

      @@ryanstrohman7429 that's not true at all. Ayn Rand was a major influence on Neil Peart in his late teens and early twenties, when he joined Rush. Which is why, songs from Fly by night and 2112 contain her philosophies, for which she was even credited in 2112. But Rush & Peart started shifting from her views in the later 70's and you won't find any references to her philosophies from 1974 to 2012. In fact, their lyrics turned broadly libertarian. Critics blew the connection between Rush & Rand out of proportion. In 2012, Peart himself rejected Rand's views and claimed he was influenced only for a very short period of time and that he later turned into a "Bleeding Heart Libertarian".
      Neil Peart wanted to read all kinds of books ever written. He was a true philosopher.

    The day the news broke about Neil’s passing, I was in the car with my parents and my brother on our way to my uncle’s wedding. At the time I hadn’t heard the news yet, and my dad was only playing Rush songs on the car radio. Eventually my brother turned to me and asked if I had heard the news about Rush. When I told him that I hadn’t heard the news, in my head I got a little excited thinking that it was something positive. When he told me that Neil Peart had passed, my heart sank, I immediately turned away towards the window, and my eyes started to tear up. It really sank in when one of his live drum solos came on, and I actually almost cried. Listening to Rush and hearing Neil’s iconic drumming has hit way different ever since.
    Rip Neil Peart.

      @Nathan Guerrette dit Latulippe RTB had good to great songwriting but the sound/production was way too soft and polite. No power or grit whatsoever. Clockwork was a hot dense mess of brickwalled noise and questionable songwriting. I blame Nick R for most of the results. Great example of why hiring a fanboy as a producer is a bad idea.

      @@maziu27 No you don't. Eternal existence would be just awful, infinite suffering from boredom. Most people don't bother to think about the implications of f o r e v e r.* Here's just the start of discussion of this problem: aeon.co/essays/theres-a-big-problem-with-immortality-it-goes-on-and-on
      This life is all and enough, especially if lived well. Thank goodness there is no afterlife!
      Neil understood this, and Geddy and Alex do as well, and so do at least a billion other non-religious people in the world, as well as even many of those supposedly "religious" people who don't really know what they believe or don't really believe it. (Most "religious" people really are not believers; they just don't really realize that they don't believe...even "very religious" people have grave doubts, hence the retreat into "faith" which really just means intellectual dishonesty, irresponsibility, and childish irrationality: "believing" what you really know is not so).
      *And the many intractable problems with personal relationships and identity in a proposed afterlife: if a child dies, does he/she grow and develop in heaven? How, without basic life challenges and context (remember that in an afterlife worthy of wanting everything is perfect, everything anyone could ever hope for is provided, so it necessarily provides no challenges that are necessary for personal development)? Without their parents who are probably still alive? How is that fair to them or their parents? Grandparents? What if they are still alive as is often the case, or simply awful people who never made it into the afterlife (as traditionally conceived)? How is it fair to a kid to be permanently a child or raised without his/her parents (assuming any type of even semi normal development can be achieve in a totally unworldly context)? What about an adult that dies before his/her natural life expectancy? How can he/she accomplish things they wanted to in life: personal relationships ranging from long term romantic relationships to having/raising children (and living long enough to see them grow up and accomplish the things they want and enjoying experiencing that), career achievements, life long friends, long term goals, etc. Same for any child that dies and somehow "grows" in an afterlife into adulthood: now what? How are they to accomplish adult level things or develop and grow without challenges or wordily context?
      And on and on with these problems: how is it fair for a person to have to live for (earthly) decades without his/her loved one(s)? Such as a couple torn apart by an early death? Both will suffer until reunited, and even then one of them, at least, will be a stranger to another after decades of independent growing/development without the other...and what happens if that person found someone else to love? Is the other who has waited to be reunited with the other, either in an afterlife or on earth, supposed to forget about them if the other has developed a romantic relationship with someone else either on earth or in an afterlife (assuming there can even be any meaningful relationships at all in an afterlife). Suppose they both are reunited in an afterlife and somehow fall in love again despite a long time of being apart and independent development of self on the part of at least one of them...what happens to the ones they were with romantically either in an afterlife or on earth, the ones they found to enter into new romantic relationships with? Are these "2nd replacements" to be rejected now for their initial life partners? How is this fair to them, especially given that they may have spent a longer time in a romantic relationship than the preexisting relationship?
      An afterlife is only to be hoped for by those who are at the end of their natural life expectancy and have accomplished everything they (reasonably) wanted to without any devastating earthly tragedies (both romantic partners die in close time to one another not decades apart, children don't die before their parents and accomplish the important things in life that gives it meaning and purpose so that the parents can experience this since they live long enough, etc.) And even then you have the problem of f o r e v e r. The reality is that everything that makes life meaningful and worthwhile is inexorably bound up with time and earthly existence, including the finitude of our existence. Permanent cessation of self (death) is exactly what gives life its meaning, it purpose, its worthwhileness. Philosophers have been showing this for millennia; here's a new statement of it: "This Life: Secular Faith and Spiritual Freedom"

      Thats cool as Shit! My dad would have told me to shut it off, you know I never once seen him listen to a radio, Years ago my mom said he liked country music. No one in the house liked country music My Mo loved stuff like Cat Steven's Moody blues she listen to anything and she was born in the 30's
      My kids They grew up with Pink Floyd Rush Degarmo and Key White heart and so on.
      I'll listen to some of what they like but seriously I can't deal with some of it. Rap I don't mind as much
      but Dance type modren music I can't stand.
      I can't tell you how many Rock and roll cd's my kid took to use.

      @@ryansetzer694 Do you think we're the first generation to say that? What do you think people were saying about rock in the 70s? There is more art and more fantastic art being produced today than at any point in history, of course a lot of it is awful, and a lot of rush contemporaries were awful too, so were a lot of the Beatles contemporaries, elvis', sinatra's. We only remember the good art from the past, we have to live within all of the art of the present. The theme song to vietnam was not CCR, we only think it was in retrospect. I'm certain the last thing rush would want any of us to do is deride people pouring their souls into music today, as that certainly is not in keeping with the spirit of radio.

    EVERY REFERENCE OR EASTER EGG I COULD SPOT
    0:11 Guglielmo Marconi: Inventor of the radio.
    0:42 The record the DJ is playing is Permanent Waves. The album on which this song appears.
    0:54 The guy is driving a "Red Barchetta"
    1:02 Young Neil (I guess)
    1:09 The signs above the buildings say Lee, Peart and Lifeson
    1:11 The boat with "Pirate Radio" is possibly a reference to "The Boat that Rocked" (It was called Pirate Radio in America)
    1:47 Bob Coburn. Host of a popular radio show called Rockline. Rush appeared 18 times as guests
    1:50 Jim Ladd. Another popular rock DJ who interviewed Rush several times
    1:56 Donna Halper. Credited with being the first DJ to play rush on the radio. She played the song Working Man on their debut album and it struck a chord with all the working man in the area as shown by the construction workers and such listening in.
    2:10 Characters Rush played in a sketch promoting the Time Machine Tour. Geddy, Neil and Alex from left to right.
    2:11 The lady on the right is reading a magazine which has Geddy's double necked Rickenbacker bass on the cover. There also appears to be a poster of young Geddy behind the lady on the left.
    2:13. The soda ad on the back wall is for a soda called "airwave" which "Crackles with life" The poster on the counter says "Magic at your fingers" and the one next to that says "Glittering prises" all lyrical referenes to the song
    2:14 The man on the left appears to be holding the debut rush album, the lady next to him is holding Permanent Waves, there's a 2112 poster on the back wall
    2:20 David Marsden. DJ and program director at CFNY, a popular radio station in Canada. The station's slogan was "The Spirit of the Radio"
    2:23 (This stuff is going by too quickly so I'll say them all in this one)
    Brain in a jar for "Hemispheres", the 2112 logo, the prism from "Caress of Steel"
    2:51 The dog from "Signals" and the 2112 logo
    2:53 the radio time says 2112 and the staion, WMMS 100.7fm is a Cleveland based Prog Rock station credited with helping Rush Break into the American market.
    3:10 Geddy's double neck Ricki and other instruments
    3:19 Fire Hidrant from "Signals", brain from "Hemispheres", nuts and bolts from "counterparts"
    3:39 Sign for Le Studio. Where Rush recorded and filmed Tom Sawyer and other songs.
    4:19 radio signal 21.12
    4:42 Inside Geddy's synth pedal is the Fly by Night Owl, 2112 logo, Counterparts, and I guess a baseball because Geddy likes to collect baseballs?
    4:47 The Test for Echo statue and the thing from Distant Stages
    4:49 I couldn't find the exact source, but in the early days of Rush, Alex Lifeson wore a monster mask like that during an interview.
    4:54 The word "Integrity" coming from a top hat, as if it's an illusion from a magician. Also could be a reference to the alum "Presto"
    4:54 All the famous instruments associated with the band. Alex liked Les Pauls and Gibson ES guitars. Geddy was famous for playing Rickenbacker basses as well as his Fender Jazz Bass. Another Hemispheres brain.
    Phew.....am I a Rush fan yet?
