Modern Drummer reviews Traveling Music

In Traveling Music, legendary Rush drummer Neil Peart heads off toward Big Bend National Park in his BMW Z-8 to conceive a new writing project. What he finds along the way, by listening to a collection his CDs that includes Frank Sinatra, Linkin’ Park, The Tragically Hip, and The Who, are two inseparably constant themes in his life about which to write: music and motion. With an engagingly anecdotal style, Peart provides editorial snapshots of bicycle trips in West Africa, the “healing road” he traveled in Ghost Rider, and years of endless touring and countless hotel rooms. By using his favorite songs and records to weave together the chronology from an inquisitive youth to the current Rush tour, Peart succeeds in delivering another thoughtful turn at prose.
