Neil Peart: The Illustrated Quotes
Neil Peart / Rush - Book - by David Calcano and Lindsay Lee
(2021)
Before his untimely death in 2020, Neil Peart was considered to be one
of the greatest drummers to have ever lived. As the drummer and primary
lyricist for the multi-platinum selling rock band, Rush, Neil charmed
the world with his introspective and eclectic writing. Heavily inspired
by science fiction, fantasy, philosophy, and his many cross-country
trips on his motorcycle, Neil crafted universal lyrics that encapsulated
the social and humanitarian issues of the time.
While Neil is
said to have inspired famous bands—like the Foo Fighters, Smashing
Pumpkins, and Rage Against the Machine—with his lyrical chops, he
contributed far more to the world than just lyrics. Neil also penned
nine books, many that recount his trials and triumphs from decades spent
on the road, giving the world affecting, memorable thoughts about life,
loss, and inspiration.
Pairing striking black-and-white
illustrations from the acclaimed artists at Fantoons with some of the
drummer’s greatest quotes, Neil Peart: The Illustrated Quotes keeps the beautiful words and musings of Neil Peart alive.
Neil Peart: The Illustrated Quotes
is the first and only Neil Peart quotes collection authorized by Neil
himself. Not only does the book provide Rush fans—both old and new—the
opportunity to dive into Neil’s inspiring messages whenever they need a
pick-me-up, it also serves as a love letter to Peart and his
beautifully-crafted words that have inspired and influenced millions
around the world.
