The Neil Peart Anatomy of a Drum Solo DVD is a 2-disc set that shows why Neal Peart is the definitive progressive-rock drummer on the scene. This exploration into his approach is totally unique and includes over 3 hours of live and studio footage.

The Neil Peart Anatomy of a Drum Solo DVD features Neil talking about his approach to soloing, dissecting a solo recorded in September, 2004 in Frankfurt, Germany. Neil reviews each segment of this 9-minute tour de force that is a highlight of each Rush performance. He delves into the inspiration and the concept behind each part of the solo and discusses and demonstrates the technique required for performing that segment.

The DVD of drum lessons also includes additional interviews and analysis of Rush performances from the drummer's perspective.

    I received this DVD as a gift, and I love it. Neil Peart is a very accomplished drummer, and no matter what style your music, you can get something out of this DVD. Although he tries to explain each element of his solo, it is kind of hard to follow because of the level of difficulty. The DVD has good extras, and the two thirty minute "explorations" are awe inspiring. Neil Peart is a great drummer, and any drummer (or musician) will enjoy this DVD.
