"A man must learn to gently dominate"
Fuckin' Rush, man. Good Lord, they were the greatest.
Let there be no dispute, until now, most proficient drummer , excellent!
neil peart sounds so damn motherfucking badass in this
he's always badass
Funkmentality indeed
Well said I must say. However, he’s was always badass!
Dude, he sounded badass when he accidentally dropped his cutlery onthe kitchen floor.
@@jochenroeder669You think that was accidental? Every beat from every fork and knife, precisely placed as an event in time.
Neil looking bada$$ with the sleeveless shirt and goatee . RIP PROFESSOR
Freaking A that drum mix at the beginning was so good. Best band of all time IMO.
Rush is what happens when 3 geniuses get together to create magic!!
Arguably the greatest band of all time!
The professors passing left a gigantic hole in the fabric of my world and I suspect many others too.
When I saw them play this live in front of my very eyes, it was one of, if not the most, mystifying, euphoric musical experience of my life. So much sound and so much power. I'm forever thankful to my dad who was willing to take me to see Rush as a teenager, not once but twice.
You are So lucky your Dad turned you onto Rush. I did for my son too. Just wish I would have taken him to see them LIVE as well.
I saw them every tour from vapor trails to r40, courtesy of my father as well. A part of me died after they finally called it quits, we will never see anything like them ever again. I've been to so many big rock concerts since then but nothing will ever hit me like a Rush live show did, it was really like going to another dimension.
@@superslayerguy That's amazing. I always wish I could have seen the Snakes and Arrows Tour. My opinion is that tour contained some of their best captured performances as a band, if you go back and listen to the live album. Especially as a guitarist, I love Alex's sound on that tour. Listen to "Between the Wheels" on the live album, and it's thunderous and powerful. My dad took my sister to see that tour, but I stole the shirt she bought in the end. hahaha.
You lucky sod....I got in to them too late to ever catch Animate live. But I was lucky enough to see them live twice in my life.
"Suddenly You were gone from all the lives you left your mark upon" Rest in peace Neil.....
Alex is so underrated. He is one of my 5 guitar players ever.
Underrated by who? Millions of fans all over the globe with tens of millions of records sold?
I think it's usually meant as underrated compared to the other two guys, who are regularly mentioned as being among the greatest on their respective instruments. Alex may not quite have those kind of chops but he is amazing at always being able to play what best serves the song.
Alex could play in most any other band, very few guitarists could play in Rush.
I absolutely agree. Jimmy Page and maybe three others above him.
He’s exactly who Neil and Geddy want him to be.
RIP Neil! One of the great drum intros in rock history.
It’s probably my favorite part of the song, but the end really turns the emotional level to eleven
Neil was one the greatest persons to pick up a pair of sticks next to Karen Carpenter
It's difficult for a band to produce additional iconic songs after their young years, but Rush managed a few and that's a testament to their creativity.
They managed more than just a few. Every album has iconic songs and is unique in their own way. Rush will always be the best rock band to me. They're like their own genre.
Imagine if you will, being in your sixties and all be it painful playing the kit as Neil did. God bless you professor 🙏❤🙏
@@doomer604 yup way more then a few lmao...these guys are on a completely different level. One of the best to do it for a very long time
And there lives sound like the studio recordings too
There is something about this song that just moves me. Killer groove and chorus. Solo in the middle with lyrics is also great. Alex is so overlooked as a composer and guitarist it just makes me sick, the guy is just incredible. But I think all 3 of them did it as a whole package. So many great songs and albums.
Lifeson is so fkn good....
Yeeeeeeeeeeh!!!!!!!!! The invisible master. Grest great guitar player.
X40
agree
Saw Rush twice in the 70s/80s. Wish I could have seen them one more time before the passing of Neil.
Most incredibly balanced band ever--their work got even better as they aged, unlike so many others.
Neil Peart is definitely working overtime back there! And Lifeson's guitar just adds an amazing ethereal beauty to the song.
Neil was clockwork, man... Awesome.
Animate is my favorite Rush song as of now... Just perfection.
+Timothy Morris my top three from these boys of wonder!
Sunil Patel
Now, I have 4 songs tied at #1: Animate, The Spirit of Radio, Red Barchetta, Between Sun & Moon.
Timothy Morris I am 49 TIm, I dont listen to so called modern crap. Music died around 1990, we had 10 x better stuff in the 80's than what this talentless trash produce. Music just gives a inner smile...its priceless :))) Carry on brother!
@@timothymorris3601 good selection. How about Witch Hunt?
Thinking all last days about this great man... Can't believe that it happened. No words, only tears...
The professor looks like an animal, love it
I´m shocked! One of the greatest Rush moments of all time, for sure. A killer groove, an astonishing guitar (what a solo!), a fantastic song, an incredible performance and a superb band.
Wow! I just heard this for the first time, a new Rush song for me in 2022, and if I ever heard it before,I must have forgotten it.
That album Counterparts I like much better live; especially the later performances
One of the best performances of one of their best songs. Neil Peart plays with groove and style. His body had never been so fluid when playing the instrument. The peak.
Alex's solo...so fluid.
I've been in love with this song for over 30 years!
Some buddies and I made the trek to Canada from Denver for the last 5 shows of this tour. I'm so happy there's record of this show! Brings back memories of a legendary road trip!
Neil Ellwood Peart.
September 12, 1952 -- January 7, 2020
"A Farewell to a King"👑
The Best Live show could could have ever seen.
I went to see them on this tour. It was awesome.
Rush is pure MAGIC 🙏❤🙏
Rip Neil 🙏🏼
Counterparts is my favorite album by Rush. I think it's highly underrated but it's a great album...
The professor hero to many,Rush heroes to all!!
Legendary performance. The boys are in top form here.

What an absolute banger of a song
My favourite song of theirs for some reason.
great version here top quality...
ruclips.net/video/zG_Rxq6vEqY/видео.html
Neil master enjoy your retirement...great human being :)
Neil Peart's fill at 3.10 is my pick. Unbelievable.
I think this is a Top 5 Rush song all-time.
Classic cut "Counterparts"🤘🍻
Uno de mis 5 grandes i love.RUSHHH❤❤❤
fabulous performance!
Their best album sound in their modern era
Miss these dudes so much.
The sound and quality of this is epic
How good is this .
Authenticity and excellence
My first ever live show was Rush on this tour at the Marcus Amphitheater, Milwaukee, WI. June 13, 1997. They played 2112 in its entirety.
Great mix...I especially like the crack in Master Neils snare. R.I.P.
04:20 You can clearly see that guitar has been on a massive journey
One word AWESOME, guy thanks for the best 40 years keep it up. RUSH ROCKS
Addictif... comme toutes les chansons devraient l'être... comme beaucoup de celles de Rush le sont.
Saw this tour at Jones beach, Long Island NY. AWESOME SHOW
How good is this? One a scale of 1 to awesome, it is off the scale.
Oddly been a Rush fan since about 1978 and was lucky to see them on the Hemispheres tour but this album just passed me by but I had the Roll the Bones and Hold your fire albums rom that era. Now, the Counterparts album is my favourite head phones listen. There is not one bad track, the sound is superb and the production immaculate. I was lucky enough to see them twice towards the end of their touring days and loved the humour pre and during the interval, but nothing can beat that 1978 Birmingham Odeon concert.
A band that had found it's feet and was building a huge fan base at a rapid rate of knots in the late 70's.
They were not too shabby after that mind with Snakes and Arrows etc.
When I met Geddy in 2000 I asked him about this show and when it was coming out. He said "I'm trying to get Atlantic to move their ass!" I saw six shows on the 1996-97 (Rockford, Chicago, Milwaukee 1996 and Indianapolis, Milwaukee, Chicago 1997) tour, great memories. Most of the Chicago 1997 show was on the Different Stages release. It was the best of the shows I saw for sure. The audience was into it. Maybe because the Bulls had won their 5th title the night before!
Cool , I almost had a close encounter with Geddy and Alex once in 1996 after a TFE show in the backstage area , I was like 10 feet away but they got in there cars and left . They waved good bye . It would have been real cool to meet them for a moment . Oh well .
Saw them in KC on the TFE tour first show I had been to. Drove up from Tulsa, no tickets. Show had been sold out. They had opened up a block for fans who were buying tickets at the venue got lucky enough to be 12 rows back Right Center... I didn't know all of their stuff then. Had just purchased Counterparts at a used cd store the week before and when they went into that break I was transcended into another dimension... Rush has been my favorite band since and there is no one even close to them
I was at the Indianapolis show on that tour also! Back when the venue was still "Deer Creek".
The bestest ever!!!!!!
Such good times..................miss them incredibly..... :(
Yeah, that is the right tempo for this very song! On R30 blu-ray it is far too slow to me...
Wow! Wow! Wow! I live this song!
Alex is really really a joy to listen to...
Sounds punchy AF! McLovin' it!
Thank you, Neil, for writing those beautiful lyrics! I wish you could have written far more.
The man moves
I loved the T4E show and the resulting live album Different Stages.
Awesome Tune! Thank you J.S. for turning me on to RUSH!
Grandes personas y para que decir lo Genios que cómo Músicos
Rush, the only band that can actually slow their songs down for live performances !
Que solo de bateria.
Love this song!
4:58 Triplets w accent on 1?
Great Great Song, I love this one!!
Love this..!
Basse hypnotique sous guitare aérienne sur fond de batterie implacable.
What RIDE was Neil playing??!!! I want it. It is sweet but serious.
Love it!
Great live version of one of my favorite Rush songs. Saw this tour in Houston from the 3rd row Geddy side with my fellow Rush buddies Robert, Bart, and Henry!
I saw this tour 3rd row Geddy side alone with Pneumonia. I was 19.
Megan Crane Houston show?
Did Pneumonia have a good time? ;)
Man... the drum mix is spectacular on this video!
Jack Mehoff Yes no kidding too bad the last number of live shows on Blu-ray have a horrible mix you can barely hear Neil’s drums on the last few live released recordings. This one and snakes and arrows live Are the only real ones that sound halfway decent. Strange for a band known for its musicianship do you have horrible production values and taste.
I was whistling quite loudly specially during 2112. I doubt you can hear much of the audience here but in the bootleg you can hear me since i wasn't too far away from the mics lol. After the show, i think it was one of the wives,..Alex's wife was giving out red guitar pics. Sadly Neil's daughter died a month later just east of Toronto.
ThunderZandor I hate whilstling I would’ve been so mad lmao
Awesome
Neil rocking the traditional grip
Is it me or do they change to the correct tempo of the song after the breakdown? Right when they go back into the chorus... Polarize me
OMG This is so cool!
This was the last tour Geddy really sounded great and sharp as a singer
Snakes and Arrows was his downfall. His voice Time Machine was bad. R40 was ok though.
It was his first solo album, which was around 2000, that's when it all began. He started doing that warble stuff. Then it continued into Vapor Trails and onward.
You lot need to get your ears syringed!
Vapour Trails was his last high pitched album really. Also just listen to his vocals on Rush in Rio, some of his best in a while imo
This song is a lot better here then the album. All of them Lifesons guitar tone especially just sound a lot fuller here
shut up
A bit slower. But still AWESOOME. one of the best drums intros EVEEEEEEER
Molson Amphiteatre is not a good place for a concert. The sight lines are limited outside the main stage area unless your at the back on a small hill. So it's good this concert has been released but why only half of it ?...for the R50 release?, maybe for the R70.
To have this sound quality palying live is quite something.
Pure R U S H magic!
Hard to believe this was almost 20 years ago. :-/
now it's been over 20 years lol
@@shaunsteele6926almost 30 years now. I saw them live in 97' in Charlotte NC. I can still feel Neils drum kick from the nose bleed section. Probably the loudest and clearest concert I ever attended. I've seen Aerosmith, The Who, Yngwie Malmsteen, Tesla, Page and Plant and many others but Rush was the best bar none.
that boy by default is a bonafide hero
rush you rock! see you tomorrow @ nj & monday @ msg! yee-haw!
Great! Can't wait to LA and Vegas!
Sick.
Goddess in my garden, sister in my soul!!! ROFL BB
Thank you for this :)
i've seen most of their live dvd releases, never seen this one, so we have to buy r40 completist package?
There's no completist package. This is a R40 box set released in 2014 with a lot of stuff. But there's the full version on YT. It's from the 1997 live at Molson Amphitheatre in Toronto. T4e tour.
@@watchmakerfs wow, that's great to know, will look for it. thanks
Seriously who gave this a dislike? Smh
I saw them on this tour, my first time. And then for a while it looked like it would be my last, or anyone else's. But then came Vapor Trails, a fair album at best but a spectacular tour. Saw them 9 more times at 4 different places up to 2012. Then on 1/7/20 you heard the worst. It was as if it was a precursor to what so far has been a real shitty decade.
Elevate....me!
holy shit
Genial 🤘😍🤘
