Today is a bittersweet day for Rush fans as we recognize our 7th September 12th without Neil Peart. Neil was taken from us back on January 7, 2020 after a long battle with glioblastoma, and today would have been his 74th birthday. For the past several years, on Neil's birthday, RUSHfest Scotland has sponsored the release of an album of Rush songs dedicated to the iconic drummer titled TRIBUTES - SONGS FOR NEIL, played by Rush tribute bands and musicians from around the world, and with all proceeds supporting cancer charities. They are continuing the tradition this year with SONGS FOR NEIL VOL. 7, which will officially release later this month in celebration of Neil's birthday, and with all profits going to Funding Neuro (registered charity SC042061). Volume 7 will be available in blue vinyl, CD, and/or digital download, and you can get all the details and secure your copy here. One of Neil Peart's favorite mantras was, "What is the most excellent thing I can do today?" I can think of no more fitting way to celebrate Neil Peart's legacy than for everyone to take this advice and go do something excellent today in honor of The Professor on his 74th birthday.
