My favorite band is Rush, thanks to the late legendary drummer Neil Peart. The band’s magnum opus is La Villa Strangiato, a self described “exercise in self indulgence.” It is a 9.5 minute instrumental in which all 3 musicians are firing on all cylinders. Peart’s drum work is nothing short of fantastic, so I wanted to show his skills in his prime within 2 seconds.

1. I first found the video on YouTube and downloaded 2 seconds of it starting at 8:13:50.
2. I converted these 2 seconds into a gif, making sure to preserve the cheesy late 70’s vibe of the music video.
