Song of the Day: Rush - The Spirit of Radio

     Both because Mike from Mandroid mentioned them in his responses to my Twenty Questions (which you should of course check out if you haven't done so already) and because it's a Canadian long weekend, I'm going full Canuck tonight and featuring by everybody's favourite princes of prog.



     Your Rush song tonight is classic "The Spirit of Radio" from the 1980 album Permanent Waves. It's not the most metal or the most aggro (a bit of a refrain for me from time to time, nes pas?) but I can't think of anything more decidedly Canadian for you on this Victoria Day long weekend, so Rush it is! For an added bonus, go on youtube and watch some vids of Neil Peart destroying any one of a number of drum solos and the like. It's guaranteed to make you feel patriotic and inferior at a single stroke!
