Emotional Feedback on a Timeless Wavelength | Why Rush Matters

We’ve said it before and we’ll say it again - What a time to be a Rush fan! While Geddy, Alex, Anika and Loren - as well as thousands of grateful fans - recover from an epic 4-night run in Toronto, Jeff and Ray present their recent conversation with legendary CFNY DJs Ivar Hamilton, Scot Turner and Liz Janik, who were in town to promote their new documentary on the history of that fabled station, which will open in Buffalo this fall. As any self-respecting Rush-head knows, the band wrote The Spirit of Radio to pay homage to CFNY and the power and impact of free-form radio. During our chat, Ivar and Scot share their Rush related memories, and Liz recounts the story of Neil Peart traveling over the Niagara escarpment and hearing her spin the Genesis epic Watcher of the Skies, an experience he cited as an inspiration for the writing of The Spirit of Radio. Sit back, relax, and remember a time when invisible airwaves crackled with life! ~~~ Follow us on Socials Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/whyrushmatters Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/whymusicmatterspodcast Title and Outro music by Jeff Miers Why Rush Matters is part of the Pantheon Media Network Learn more about your ad choices.
