Rush Release New Animated Video for ‘The Spirit of Radio’
Rush unleashed the stunning animated video for their classic single “The Spirit Of Radio” from their album Permanent Waves.
Embedded below, the video serves as a tribute to drummer Neil Peart, who passed away in January following a private battle with brain cancer.
Per a press release, “The animated video captures the magic, spirit and growth of the FM radio format with a nostalgic nod to the pioneering DJ’s broadcasting music into homes around the world.”
The video also serves as part of an ongoing 40th anniversary celebration of Permanent Waves, which has received a reissue release that is available in a variety of formats here.
FLASHBACK: Rush Gets Inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame
Hey It’s Ryan, let me start off by saying…YES, I was born and raised in Wixom, Michigan although a lot of listeners like to joke that I am from Arizona. WCSX has always been my radio home, I have been at the station since I was a 23-year-old intern, co-host of Big Jim’s House, married with kids. Family and radio are what I love, but don’t get me started on golf!
Like some, I have become obsessed with golf and you can hear all about that on “The Ball Washer Pod” right here on WCSX. One of my other passions is helping out the Vets. Since coming to WCSX I have been apart of raising hundreds of thousands for local vet groups. Other than that, I am a goofy guy, loving life, my family and talking to you on the radio. Ryan writes about golf, family and what happens on “Big Jim’s House.”
