The
film starts with Geddy Lee discussing the longevity of the band, its
formation, and its first drummer, John Rutsey. There’s commentary
from various band members on the significance of each album up to "Moving Pictures". The band is forthright, honest and genuine about
their career.
For
the "2112" segment,
Geddy, drummer Neil Peart, guitarist Alex Lifeson, producer Terry
Brown, Taylor Hawkins of the Foo Fighters, Cliff Burnstein of Mercury
Records and a few other rock journalists discuss each song in order,
starting with the unmistakeable beginning of “Overture”.
Any
information on Rush is useful and never boring; Neil’s adulation
for writer Ayn Rand, the 2112 logo, the story behind “Red
Barchetta” or what the call letters of YYZ actually mean is every
bit as enjoyable as the first time you might have heard about them.
