Summary
It’s Podwork Angels: The Rush Hour, a podcast dedicated to the Canadian rock band Rush! Justin Mancini of TheCineMaverick.com & Cinema Joes is joined by fellow Cinema Joes podcast host Noah Franc of FrancNoir, as well as Luke Martin, host of Talking the Coda, as they delve into the discography of Canada’s favorite sons, from 1974 to 2012. In this episode, Chris Mancini joins brother Justin and Noah to talk about Rush’s breakout album (Luke, alas, was too busy having fun aboard the Thailand Express). They debate the controversial fourth movement of the title track, lament the dreaded “East Asian riff,” and come to the conclusion that Geddy Lee may, in fact, be a pretty talented bass player.
