I know others have mentioned this on all of his interviews, but I’ll say it again. Rick is the best interviewer on the planet. He gives the guest so much space to talk without interruption. He’s a great listener.

What is great with the Rush guys is their humility, honesty, their sense of humour. Real Canadians who are loved by... Canadians!

I am so happy for you, Rick, that you're getting more and more interview opportunities.  They are so enjoyable and you appear to be so happy.

One of the things I love about Rush, is that they are not afraid to show their hearts, (musically, and personally), to the world. Alex and Geddy are as real as they come, and I have been grateful for their kind souls for decades.

Alex is my favourite guitarist...there are a LOT of great guitarists and what it boils down to is - who plays the music that you most like to hear? Alex's body of work is phenomenal. So, many great riffs, arpeggios, solos, such feel, originality, nuance, diversity, etc etc

The guitar is an extension to your body, plain and simple.
