You should react to any Buddy Rich's drum solo....he ( Buddy) was a strong influence on Neil In fact there are a drum solo from Neil on a concert In memorial of Buddy Rich

[@docwho10th88]

The Drum Master- Modern Drummer magazine Drumming has the power to unite people, no matter how varied their language or cultural background might be. On a recent trek through Africa, Neil Peart had a singular experience that proved just that. "I was in Gambia, walking through a small village, and I heard the sound of a drum. So of course I was curious! I looked into a compound and I could hear the drumming coming from a curtained room. I walked up to a woman doing laundry in front of the room. She could see my interest in the sound, so she waved me to go in. Inside I found a young, white missionary from a nearby Catholic school. Sitting across from him was the commanding presence of the local drum master. He was attempting to show the missionary how to play any kind of beat. The missionary was trying as hard as he could, but he wasn't having a lot of success." After a time the drum master, frustrated by the missionary's lack of ability, noticed the other man who had come into the room. The master had no idea who this person was, but he thought to himself, "Why not see if he can play?" According to Peart, what happened next was fascinating. "The drum master gestured to me to try and play a rhythm. So we began playing together, and he started smiling because he could tell I had a rhythm - maybe not his rhythm, but a rhythm of some kind. We were playing and playing, building the intensity, and little kids started coming in, laughing at the white man playing drums. Then a few women came into the room, and everybody began dancing to our beat! The master and I even started trading fours. It wasn't a spoken thing, but he could tell that I would lay out and listen to what he was doing for a certain amount of time, and then he would do the same. It was just a magical moment." When they finished, a confused and startled missionary ran up to Peart and asked, "How can you do that?" Chuckling to himself, Neil politely responded, "I'm in the business."

[@donaldmurphy3148]

2 masters at their craft, communicating in a language beyond words; no national borders, no ethnic divide, no race just rhythm connecting them and allowing them to communicate.

Three, almost four months later, and it still doesn't seem completely real or possible. I hate the idea that I'll never be able to thank him, even in the smallest way, for the influence of his drumming, his lyrics, and the music he and his bandmates made.

From the age of 2, he lived in Port Dalhousie, St. Catharines Ontario. When he was a teenager he worked a couple of the carnival games on the midway at Lakeside Park. I still can't believe he's gone.

[@ultslipknot]

Neil Peart has been inspiring drummers since the 1970's... I heard a person say that Neil Peart is "Your favorite drummer's, favorite drummer"... He is the shoulders that were stood on for so many of the greats of the 80's 90's 2000's and even to this day. One of the greatest!

This has to be one of the best reaction to a Peart drum solo I've seen. There's Peart and then everybody else. Peart's drum solos are a composition and very musical. It's not about hitting a drum, it's about creating music.

[@denisetinto1828]

You are the first reactor that I have seen that has noticed the intricacies of Neil's playing--feet separate from hands, etc. This man is a genius and he's Canadian to boot (being Canadian used to be something to brag about; however...). Liking your observations and analyses. Keep up the good work. Cheers from Canada

Wake up and smell the coffee, Canada is not what it used to be and never will be with people like you denying reality.

PS I apologize to the reactor of this channel. I did not expect my comment to turn into a political discourse. I reacted impulsively to this person's comment. I will not react again in this manner. It is not worth it.

@denise tinto I was thinking the very same thing!! He is the first (person to react about Neil Peart,playing with his hands at a different rythm are time signatures,while keeping his high-hats a going at a straight 4/4 time signature!! Ive been playing drums a little over 40 years.. And I've practiced this over and over!!! And I just cannot play it!!! And ive seen so very many (people's reactions) to this particular drum solo of Neil Pearts!! And because of also listening to Neil Peart.. He's definitely who inspired me,to play drums!! And one last thing!!! I absolutely loved, watching the look on,this gentlemans face,as he was listening to Neils Solo!! And while he was listening!! He'd become so amazed,by Neil Pearts,abilities of playing. That he had to stop,and just boast about how great the Professor was!!!!! So @ LFR FAMILY!!

Complete and total limb independance. Very few people are wired to even be capable of this.

[@SilentBob2112]

Neil states that drum solo was to represent the sounds drums as they progressed. Yes, he is keeping 3/4 time on his feet while playing 4/4 and free playing on the rest of the drums. The horns you hear at the end are all from triggers on the set that Neil is hitting to activate them and the big band at the end is the Buddy Rich Band that he played with and did two records with.

[@johnwright6311]

Yes! It’s a Buddy Rich homage is at the end. Did you also think he was paying tribute to Gene Krupa on the first (at least) extended snare solo? AND, I think he was paying homage to Lionel Hampton (who was phenomenal) with the xylophone play. I never had those thoughts about this solo until viewing it tonight… I wonder if that’s what The Professor was doing?

[@erniecortez5790]

I appreciate that YOU appreciate (and noticed) the fact that he was multitasking both feet, independently, from all the other shenanigans up on top of the kit. Kudos! 👍

This was a very good review. You have a very good understanding of the talent involved here, with Mr Peart (RIP). He enjoyed a 40+ year career with Rush. Yes, he had many more solos before this. Neal,aka "the professor" was extremely intelligent, wrote most of the lyrics throughout their career. He was also always a student,, trying to learn from jazz greats, African tribal drummers, etc. As smart as he was, he was also very kind, humble, and introverted. He was your favorite drummer's drummer.

@@dsvet this is good… the video of Neil was Great. Not only was Neil’s spectacular, it paid homage to the great drummers and percussionists of the past. In the middle the snare solo was reminiscent of Gene Krupa - a phenom in his own right. The Xylophone parts are similar to what Lionel Hampton did as a soloist and with Benny Goodman. And then the video showed Buddy Rich and Neil played that as well. Awesome percussion solo (way more than drums here).

[@stevedrums1675]

the answer to your question during the 'Walts Section' is yes about how he's keeping his time section with his feet and then playing a completely different time signature with his arms. It VERY difficult to do. So, just so you can get an idea, start tapping with you feet counting to three with your right foot on the one and your left foot on 2&3. that's a waltz. then when you get some stability with that, then try playing something with your hands. See how long you can keep your feet going in rhythm doing the same thing. It's a mind-trick.

[@alharrington6973]

I've heard people comment on his expression while he's playing (or lack thereof). His "expression" is complete concentration because he is doing insane things like this. Not many people can do 4 completely different physical things at the same time. Neil was the master, no doubt.

Neil Peart midway through his career as the drummer for Rush, went back to school to relearn how to drum, to improve upon what he was doing, he was already labeled the best drummer in the world, and reinvented himself and his style. Which in turn made him even better. Thanks for sharing!

I have followed RUsh for over 40 years and in my humble opinion one of the best bands the music scene has ever known.

I have been listening to Neil my whole life ..Love your Expressions you make thru the Whole Drum Solo bro ...Neil is the Master ...Love ya n Miss U Neil RIP my Brother

[@b3fiend]

That wasnt even a backing track at the end. All of the horns are samples he is triggering from the kit.

[@jima6545]

Fact! Probably was the toughest part to perfect

[@mr.funnybones9570]

I read this comment right as I got to that part. Glad I got to see him years ago and his 10-minute drum solo

[@AlPence]

This is true

[@KodieGregory]

Mr.Funnybones 95 I saw him during the Moving Pictures anniversary a few years back. Truly blessed I got to see the professor work his magic on the kit.

[@reidall23]

Thank you for posting that fact...I had no idea. He was the greatest.

[@braincrisp1]

He's switching genres on you. Yep, that' the Professor for you...

[@jeffovermyer1751]

you need to also hear he s solo from the song working man, that was his first real great solo. Neil Peart RIP! greatest drummer ever!

[@marjowanten6407]

He knows where everything is in his drum kit because he is a genius. The professor. R.I.P. Neil. We miss you😔

[@uoabigaillevey]

Neil Peart is what happens when a drummer can play a drum line better than the person who wrote it.

[@michaelbriefs9764]

To your questions, the short answer is "yes, he's doing all that", Haha! :)

[@jamesbyron2683]

I've seen Rush in concert many times Neil's solos are epic

[@misfit71]

Not only was he an amazing musician he was INCREDIBLY intelligent and well spoken. He was also Rush's lyricist.

oh .. and they play the bongos too

[@stanley2681]

if you love drums you gotta check out another legend. do a reaction to led zeppelin - moby dick live in madison sq. garden movie. john bonham is referred to as the hammer of god because thats what he was on drums

[@JohnWilliams-bt9er]

That is a must!

[@25newrush]

Neil Peart can do what Bonham did, but, John Bonham could not do what Neil did.

Then Danny Carey Must The Hammer Of The God Slayer, Because He Puts Bonham To Shame!

[@TheGreeneyes777]

Watching you react to Neil Peart's drum solo it doesn't get much more real then that when you are in a state of disbelief!! If you are just now exploring Rush and their music I am so excited for you my good man!! You are about to embark on a journey into the inner working of Neil Peart's mind! And upon exiting stage left the spiritual experience you take with you will change you in ways you never thought were possible and you will have become a rush fan!!!

[@skipmccue9697]

My friend, I’m a long time drummer and The professor fan. Got to tell u your face and take on his performance was the best. Glad you watched and enjoyed. He was my Hero. RIP

[@chrisw3421]

U took your headphones out too early

[@tylerd1090]

Rest In Peace Professor. Truly an inspiration to all us drummers and artists out there.

[@Veloz104592]

That poker face tho like it was nothing, he mastered the art of relaxation, the key to his flawless drumming and that was translated to a super unique style, he was a genius! RIP Neil.

[@kevinhamlin6867]

Getting to witness GREATNESS! The GOAT I was blessed to see him 3 times in my life live. RIP Neil

[@davidrolfes8803]

Admired for his talent, respected for his intellect, loved for his humanity
