The music of Frank Sinatra, Limp Bizkit, Linkin Park, and many other artists provides the score to the reflections of a musician on the road in this memoir of Neil Peart's travels from Los Angeles to Big Bend National Park. The emotional associations and stories behind each album Peart plays guide his recollections of his childhood on Lake Ontario, the first bands that he performed with, and his travels with the band Rush. The evocative and resonant writing vividly captures the meanderings of a musical mind, leading rock enthusiasts to discover inside information about Rush and the musical inspirations of a rock legend.
If you're a fan of Neil Peart, Rush or just a fan of music and/or well written biographies of interesting people I think you'll enjoy this book.
"Part biography, part travelogue, part music history, Peart makes you aware that a full life should be answering...'Now, what?'" -- Metro, Toronto
