Working Man 

Biography


"Working Man" is a song by progressive rock band Rush off of their debut album, Rush. The song deals with people in the working class and their life. The song features an instrumental section in its middle portion. Donna Halper, a DJ working at WMMS, a radio station in Cleveland, Ohio, selected "Working Man" for her regular play list. The song's blue collar theme resonated with hard rock fans and this newfound popularity led to the album being re-released by Mercury Records in the U.S. Despite its popularity, it has never been released as a single. On the live album All the World's a Stage, the song segues directly into "Finding my Way" and one of Neil Peart's drum solos. The song is written in E minor and begins with the riff E5-D-A/E5-C-D. The solo was voted 94th in Guitar World magazine's list of the 100 greatest guitar solos.[LINK: http://guitar.about.com/library/bl100greatesti.htm] The
