There are tonnes of these drum/vocal/bass tracks on Youtube! You just have to look
Has it? I can still watch it...That's weirdThat one you posted has already been deleted

Ah, that happens with you too? Usually you just have to refresh the pageMaybe it was my browser... I got a message saying "deleted" It works now...
I had no idea he filled with the timbale at 2:40. The wash from the cymbals sounds pretty cool too. How do they get rid of that in the final mix again? Some sort of filter or compressor?
What about before software like Moving Pictures or did they use computers for mixing (I honestly don't know, Rush was pretty ahead of their time)
By the way, how cool are the isolated guitar tracks? Gives your mind a new listening experience imagining the drum track. My favorites incidentally are Metallica's Master... and ...And Justice tracks. Geddy's YYZ is pretty awesome too. Fun to play "air guitar" and it almost sounds like Kirk Hammett is in my living room.
It's a really high tech piece of equipment called Rock BandThere is software out there (and I can't for the life of me think of it) that extracts drum tracks.
Hey Omar!
Just wanted to kindly disagree with your assessment of NP's Exit...Stage Left solo. I, for one, rank this one the best solos of his ever recorded. As a matter of fact, I rate it as ONE of the best progressive rock drum solos ever!
But you aren't gonna be surprised that I think that...I know. But that's how I feel about this solo of his. No way it's fourth. Absolutely not! Sorry, buddy. ;-)
But again, Thank You for posting these solo articles. It's nice to know that there IS another devoted, die-hard Professor fan out there that takes the time to post some very interesting reads...WITHOUT shooting the man down for this and that ridiculous reason.
Keep Up the good work! ;-)
Anyone seen the movie "I love you man" yet ? I saw a bit while watching That Metal Show the other day that said Rush have a part in the movie. Not sure how big a part. Background band at a concert the characters go to, or actual parts in the film, like in The Trailer Park Boys.
Bad news/good news.
Blender magazine, who's opinions never seemed to align with mine is folding. It's kharma for insulting Peart's lyrical ability.
Bad news because it means loss of jobs. Good news, because they are no loss to me.
Hi trk.
Yes, Blender blundered big time by criticizing Neil's lyrical ability. That showed their ignorance (or the writer of that article, or the editor, or both). Too bad for the jobs, yes.
Just also wanted to mention that I'll be very shortly posting number three on the countdown towards Neil's best solo. Stay tuned!
And just to throw out there one of my favorite songs lyrically by Mr. Peart, it would have to be "The Camera Eye":
Pavements may teem
With intense energy,
But the city is calm
In this violent sea
...and I love how Geddy sings the last two lines--
I won't miss Blender.
