Description
With extensive, first-hand reflections from Geddy Lee, Alex Lifeson, and Neil Peart, as well as from family, friends, and fellow musicians, "Anthem: Rush in the ’70s" is a detailed portrait...
show moreFighting complacency, provoking thought, and often enraging critics, Rush has been at war with the music industry since 1974, when they were first dismissed as the Led Zeppelin of the north. "Anthem", like each volume in this series, celebrates the perseverance of Geddy, Alex, and Neil: three men who maintained their values while operating from a Canadian base, throughout lean years, personal tragedies, and the band’s eventual worldwide success.
Martin Popoff has written close to 100 books on hard rock, heavy metal, classic rock and record collecting. He was Editor in Chief of the now retired Brave Words & Bloody Knuckles, Canada’s foremost heavy metal publication in print for fourteen years, and has also contributed to Revolver, Guitar World, Goldmine, Record Collector, bravewords.com, lollipop.com and hardradio.com. Martin has been a regular contractor to Banger Films, having worked on the award-winning documentary "Rush: Beyond the Lighted Stage", the eleven-episode "Metal Evolution", and the ten-episode "Rock Icons", both for VH1 Classic. Martin currently resides in Toronto and can be reached through martinp@inforamp.net or martinpopoff.com.
PROGRAMMING NOTE: This interview was originally recorded around January of 2020 for my previous podcast DISCovery, this was shortly after the passing of Rush drummer Neal Peart.
