Ep. 207: Dan Barracuda

Dan Barracuda has a knack for dissecting songs that makes difficult music theory seem easy. Across his social media presence, you can find Dan breaking down what makes songs by your favorite artists tick--including Rush! So we asked him to join us this week to unravel the mysteries of what makes Alex Lifeson such a distinctive guitarist and why Rush sounds like Rush!

E. 193: The Real Rush Song Rankings With John Take of Rush Graphs

In episode 182, we detailed our failed attempt to rank all 165 Rush album tracks, and we put out the call for listeners to submit their own lists. This week, John Take of Rush Graphs (who first joined us way back in episode 32) analyzes the data--including the lists Steve and Gerry finally got around to completing--and finds some interesting trends, all of which are presented in amazing graphs. You can listen along with the graphs, which we'll be posting on X (formerly Twitter; @RushFanCast) and Instagram (@therushcast). Oh, and which is the top Rush song as voted by our listeners? Listen to find out! And after that, we talk with author and entrepreneur Ben Wiener, whose new novel, Fever Pitch, is both a guide for creating great business pitches and is simply packed with Rush references! You can buy Fever Pitch on Amazon or at  https://feverpitchbook.com and listen to a curated Rush playlist that accompanies the book at https://open.spotify.com/playlist/0rVJZL9JchyI9WsmITNpjz?si=IgfcFBPjTWaYebARTQjHIA.
