Ya know....I own the ESL video (in which we are denied of this Greatness) and Still... I TRULY believe this is one of Neil's GREATEST solos...NO computers..electronics..etc..
just him and his drums..TOTALLY Organic..and yet...my only question is: how?...
HOW was this solo performance/tour NEVER captured/filmed!!????
I mean..the early 80's was the dawn of the portable/home video camera!!
As many solos I have been blessed to watch..to me..the one from the ESL tour would be the ULTIMATE!!
if any one should ever bash neil, just lead them to this post. thats neil. prob. the best solo out there, and ive listened to quite a few. the tamas he had back then have got to be the best sounding drums ever. hes good now but, back then he smoked em....
@jimmygt4 His drum sound was better back then right? I hear a bunch of people say that he should have never studied off Freddie Gruber. What's your opinion on that?
I saw them Live on this tour in Los Angeles. His solo was even more amazing in person. Neil got up, worked his way around the OUTSIDE of the drum kit... playing the whole way around the kit, without missing a beat, climbed back into the kit, did his amazingly fast drum roll and then finished the song. I've never seen ANY other drum solo even come close to the WOW factor of that show! Neil is an amazing drummer!
@darkJman77 Total complete bullshit. Tell me...what else happened that magical night? Did the Goodyear Blimp drop the band off outside the arena as well? Did Alex throw out his wallet and give everyone free cash during Freewill as well?
Bro, keep it simple on the Peart reviews and don't be so fucking stupid to make up such ridiculous bullshit such as your review. You have no idea the audience you speak to when you create such things that not even Smurfs could do on their best day.
@darkJman77 i'm sorry but i have to agree with vaportrails on this one..Neil has never done such a thing..that would be something some cocky, untalented 80's hack drummer would pull..it is completely uncharacteristic of Neil to do such a thing...he's a very modest and down to earth human being and a humble drummer, even though we all know he's one of the most influential drummers of all time..so , yeah, i gotta say, total bullshit !!
@blica1 ya and I'm just going to say it wasn't me who put that it was my dad and personally I will agree with him more than some random hater on the internet that just spreads around hate because he has no happiness in theirs........
@darkJman77 what in holy hell are you talking about. ? vaportrails nails you with comments were sarcastic and a little volatile in nature, but still the truth, and you blast me as a "hater"..are you insane..i' was merely stating a fact and agreeing with another youtube user that your story or your dad's or whoever 's story it is is complete fabrication and fiction, or you must have Neil confuswed with someone else..my comment has nothing to do with hate !!.
@darkJman77 further more , i am quite content in my life...i am a professional sound engineer,session , who makes a great living doing what i l do, i've got a nice family and home, and certainly no "hater".seems to me like you're the one who's life needs some reflecting ..and by the way you've articulated yourself with your comments,you also sound quite young if your dad's the one who's the Rush fan..there's no "hate" up here on my part, just complete ignorance and hostility on yours my friend.
@darkJman77 oh and one more thing..i don't see a shred of evidence in which you retaliated a comment to vaportrails..what's the matter sweetheart, does he scare you with his mean 'ol comments ? i'd like to see your response to his comments ! or are you just afraid ?..let me guess..you'll probably answer back to me with some silly response but continue to ignore vaportrails..sound about right ?..listen, don't even bother..you'll just waste your time ! there is no hate on part..only regret.!
@darkJman77 you must have it mixed up with Greg bisonette, formerly of david lee roth ..i saw the eat 'em and smile tour back in 86 when i was 18 and you've just described precisely what Greg did..so you must have the 2 confused !..just saying...Neil Peart pulling such a cheesy stunt would be like Alex or Geddy licking their guitar necks in some form of 80's glam metal stage ritual..total cheese ! lol !
@HAIDARAVEN So the fuck what? I like the song Vapor Trail...does this present an issue for you...if so...we can deal with these kinds of things openly or I can put you on my shit list.

Ironic that technology sucked the most when the music was the best, and now we can record the best when there's little worth recording.

Nothing quite like the sound of those old Tamas. I don't care for the sound he's got today with the DW kit.

This is so much wilder, crazier, faster, and better than the version we get on Exit Stage Left... so glad someone was able to record this!
