NEIL PEART - THE BIG MONEY - 1992

[birdg]

I will never get over this mans passing.

[ChollieD]

The Big Money was one of his best drum arrangements. So detailed but so slick.

This is what it would sound like if Neil Peart lived in the apartment above you....but that would be ok!

[stephenforbes]

Peart is known for being a nerdy technician with chops, but the man is possibly one of the heaviest hitters of all time as well and this video brings it to light.

Neil passed away five years ago today. I still think about him a lot. I'm so glad I got to see Rush live in the early to mid 90s. Of all the drummers I've admired, he had the most impact on my playing. Love watching him play with such strength and precision. His drums sound amazing. We are lucky to have this video!

[brucesmith]

Neil Peart approached the drum kit like an Olympian does their feat of competition.

[padistedor]

Don’t know how he was able to hit the drums that hard in every song for so many years. My favorite drummer for all time.

[scottanddebranelson]

and that, ladies and gentlemen, is how it is done. good grief what talent and skill put on display.

[driftless]

I'm so incredibly sad that I will never see Rush live again. I'm so grateful for the shows I did attend. God bless you Neil.

The Professor was hands down the best drummer in the world!! RIP😢

[jenniferjones]

I will never get tired of watching these videos. SO grateful to all that he gave us. His music, his lyrics, his prose writing, his books, his life philosophies... the list goes on. Such and inspiring human. And look at the end of the video... they say there are no female RUSH fans. The Bones tour was my first. I got to meet the band in Oakland thanks to Primus's tour manager.

Personally, I think this album and hold your fire, is the pinnacle of their arrangements and technology - some of the hardest played live
Wild seeing all the stuff going on in this song and his arrangements fit so well incorporating digital samples with acoustic drums guy could play tennis back there on this chart . Another note you see the shear raw power he pounds the hell out of drum then changes his approach once he studied with Fred grubber plays it with more finesse later tours but switched back to matched grip on charts he plays prior to Freddy instruction era . Miss the boys on stage

[cvn]

Neil hit those drums like they owed him money. Wow. So precise and such power. Total drum god.

[digidrum]

My man is killin those drums!!! Miss you Neil....and seeing the whole group in concert!!!!

[greensombrero]

Every maple leaf in the world rocking to this talent - long live canada

[calito]

Man!!!! is not only that he is a master at techniques but si the way he approche the drum catching the spirit of the song. If you hear the druming sounds like a industrial machine, very squared, very the little details of the professor.

[cspace]

Watching his left foot move between the high hat, the kick pedal, and the trigger - amazing.

[annettereynolds]

The ferocity and raw power is amazing. I'll never cease to miss him.

[claudioguzman]

It´s unbelievable what Mr. Peart did in this amazing video. He was a great drummer, a genuis. RIP Mr. Peart...always be remembered as one of the for everything you gave us

[BJM]

He always served the overplaying...what an inspiration he was!!!! The world truly lost an evolved human being.
