Transcript: "Rush: The Fine Art Of Metal" - RIP, June 1989

Thanks to @MarkWalton67 for transcribing "Rush: The Fine Art Of Metal", an interview with Geddy Lee after the release of A Show of Hands, from the June 1989 issue of RIP magazine.  Part way through the article the author defends Rush against other music press who were no longer acknowledging them with "perhaps, because Rush has been around for so long, it's easy for the music press to cast them aside as old news"; of course, Rush would remain active for more than 25 years after this was published!

Transcript: "Rush Takes Things Slow In Studio" - Sacramento Bee, September 11, 2002

I have transcribed "Rush Takes Things Slow In Studio", an interview with Alex Lifeson which appeared in the September 11, 2002 edition of the Sacramento Bee. Alex talks about the early steps the band took when Neil Peart returned to the band after his tragedies, the lack of guitar solos and keyboards on Vapor Trails, and sounding like a bad Rush tribute band when preparing for the Vapor Trails tour. - Thanks to RushFanForever for sending the original article.

The Neil Peart Transcript Collection

Since first adding the Rush Transcript Archive to my website nine years ago, it has grown to nearly 1,900 articles for your perusal and enjoyment - nearly double what it was when first launched. The articles are listed in chronological order, and sprinkled through those items are every known article or essay written by Neil Peart.

For the last few months I've been wanting to collect all of Neil's writings in one central location for easy and quick review, and I finally accomplished this goal. At the top of my Transcript Archive page you'll now see a button for "The Neil Peart Collection", a collection of all known newsletters, magazine articles, tour book essays, linernotes, blog entries and more, written by Neil Peart.

Visually, this list of content is striking. We all knew he was a prolific writer, but seeing it condensed in one list is awe inspiring, and I only wish I could continue to add to it in the future...

Transcript: "Life(son) Beyond Rush" - Toronto Star, January 13, 1996

Another long lost Victor article.  I've transcribed "Life(son) Beyond Rush", a review of Alex Lifeson's solo album Victor from the January 13, 1996 edition of the Toronto Star.  "True to his nature, Lifeson shares the limelight, keeping his surname out of the band name, keeping guitar solos to a minimum and giving major credit to his many helpers." - Thanks to JSW for sending the article!
