## Resource

Is there such a thing as a Rush deep cut ? To the diehards, absolutely not — but that shouldn’t stop us from trying! As the band gears up for their long-anticipated Fifty Something anniversary tour, I am throwing back to an episode where I was the guest , and joined Steve & Gerry on the Something For Nothing: A Rush Fancast . In this discussion, we set out to celebrate the overlooked corners of one of the most iconic catalogs in rock history , and wrack our brains to come up with five not-so-popular-but-definitely-should-be Rush songs each — tracks that may not dominate classic rock radio but reveal the band’s depth , ambition , and evolution . No hits . No concert staples. From early prog explorations to later-era experimentation , this episode dives into underrated Rush songs , forgotten fan favorites , and deep album cuts that showcase the brilliance of Geddy Lee , Alex Lifeson , and Neil Peart . Whether it’s intricate musicianship , storytelling , or emotional weight hiding beneath the surface , these songs remind us why Rush’s legacy continues to grow fifty years on . Whether you’re a lifelong Rush obsessive , gearing up to see them on this tour , or a newer listener curious about what lies beyond the hits , this episode is a love letter to Rush deep cuts — the riffs , the risks , and the moments that still reward close listening decades later. 🎙️ LEARN MORE 🎵 Hear the Playlists / Browse the Catalog: ⁠ https://myweeklymixtape.com⁠ 💬 Join the Mixtaper Community (Patreon): ⁠ https://patreon.com/myweeklymixtape⁠ 🌐 Connect on Social: ⁠ https://myweeklymixtape.com/social-media⁠ 📧 Email the Show / Contact: ⁠ https://myweeklymixtape.com/contact⁠ 👕 Shop MWM Gear: https://myweeklymixtape-shop.fourthwall.com/
