My favorite Rush song

[@TheJezric]

Not super busy on the drums, but there is a lot of feeling there... One of my favs.

[@benjaminleimkuhler6812]

So much passion in his vocals on this song, and the entire album

[@jarem2112]

Amazing cover of a song and album not played enough.. Thank you!

[@benjaminleimkuhler6812]

Those drums sound good

[@thomassabol4565]

Nailed it 😊

[@michaelcooper9894]

Man I love your kid I played a similar mix of Roland leases and heart dynamics along time ago. RUSH is my favorite band and spent many hours doing exactly what you’re doing brother good job well produced.

[@keiththomas6576]

Nailed it!

[@kerryrichardson9646]

great job-just another reminder of how good neil was- everytime i see another cover of one of his parts i realize just how many incredible contributions he made to drumming and to rush's music

[@TheJezric]

Thanks! Yeah, me too... One of the reasons I do these videos is just that, his drum orchestration was so unique and the lyrics, such great messaging!

[@user-kg7pq1xd4b]

You nailed it!Nice tribute!

[@666Sacrament666]

Excellent attention to detail and a very respectful cover. Great room too!

[@Toom2112]

Awesome cover!

[@jordiruiz4323]

You nailed it man, the sound of your kit is really good and very close to Neil's original, I really enjoy your covers, congratulations and thanks.👌

[@TheJezric]

Thank you. I enjoy making them.

[@michaelakkerman407]

Bro...now you're hitting me in the feels. Sitting there with i think is a Police Synchronicity T, who i think Copeland works the Highhats better than anyone, playing one of my all-time favorite RUSH SONGS. Damn and killing it. Not one flaw. I place this on an acoustic drum kit, and it absolutely sounds wanting.

[@TheJezric]

The shirt is a play on Synchronicity, but is in fact the Delorian from back to the future. haha. Agree, Copeland is great! Thanks for the kind words, this is also one of my favorite songs. Not the most obviously complex drum part, but has some great moments.

[@digitalman2112]

Nice!

[@jboneschreibs6081]

This cover is so amazing! You honor The Professor with this work my good man. Rock on! 🤘

[@MykeLewisMusic]

One of Rush's best! Killer job on this, man!

[@RichRawDawgdrums]

Awesome drumming on this classic song from the Power Windows album! Sound quality is great!

[@AutoMadoc]

Wow so amazed! This is so cool all of the changes and everything 😊 nice!

[@Zanthanee]

Excellent job fellow musician 👏 😎

[@gregoryrogalsky6937]

Your drumming the wrong way ? Just kidding great work.. Do you mind telling me what Drum modulus you are using.? I am about to convert my 12 piece to electronic . Great drumming subscribed

[@TheJezric]

Yes, I do play the wrong way... Unfortunately, it's how I originally learned and I'm not even left-handed! I just don't have it in me to change at this point. Most of the sounds are stock sounds from the Roland TD-20 (almost 20 years old now!) However, when I mix, I do add compression so that helps the sound a bit.

[@gregoryrogalsky6937]

@@TheJezric Thanks for taking the time to respond. Do you only use one drum modual ?
