ROCK MOMENT - Rush "New World Man" (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Rush’s “New World Man” became an unexpected milestone for the Canadian trio. Released on the 1982 album Signals, the song wasn’t originally conceived as one of the record’s centerpiece tracks. In fact, Rush wrote it largely because they needed a short song to balance the running time of the album. The result became the band’s biggest hit on the American singles chart. By the time Rush began working on Signals, Geddy Lee, Alex Lifeson and Neil Peart were moving deeper into the synthesizer-heavy s
ROCK MOMENT - Rush "Red Barchetta" (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Rush’s “Red Barchetta” is one of the band’s greatest examples of musical storytelling—a futuristic tale about freedom, machines and the simple thrill of driving fast. Released on the landmark 1981 album Moving Pictures, the song was written by drummer and lyricist Neil Peart, with music by guitarist Alex Lifeson and bassist/vocalist Geddy Lee. Peart drew inspiration from the short story “A Nice Morning Drive,” written by Richard S. Foster and published in Road & Track magazine in 1973. The story
ROCK MOMENT - Cheap Trick "Don't Be Cruel" (opens the original)
Read excerpt
When Cheap Trick recorded “Don’t Be Cruel” for their 1988 album Lap of Luxury, they brought one of rock ’n’ roll’s most recognizable songs into a new era. Their energetic remake became a major hit, reaching No. 4 on the Billboard Hot 100 and helping extend a comeback that had begun with the chart-topping ballad “The Flame.” The song’s history stretches back to 1956. Written by Otis Blackwell, with Elvis Presley also receiving a songwriting credit, “Don’t Be Cruel” was recorded by Presley on July
ROCK MOMENT - ZZ Top "My Head's In Mississippi" (opens the original)
Read excerpt
ZZ Top may have come from Texas, but “My Head’s in Mississippi” made it clear where much of their musical inspiration lived. Released on the band’s 1990 album Recycler, the song brought their deep love of the blues into focus after the enormous success of their synthesizer-heavy 1980s records. Written by Billy Gibbons, Dusty Hill and Frank Beard, and produced by longtime manager Bill Ham, it became a No. 1 hit on Billboard’s Album Rock Tracks chart in December 1990. The title grew out of a conve
ROCK MOMENT - ZZ Top "La Grange" (opens the original)
Read excerpt
ZZ Top’s “La Grange” sounds like it has been rolling down a Texas highway forever. Billy Gibbons’ guitar starts with a quiet boogie, Dusty Hill’s bass and Frank Beard’s drums lock into the groove, and then the trio turns up the heat. The song appeared on the band’s 1973 album Tres Hombres, but its story began with a real place: the Chicken Ranch, a brothel outside La Grange, Texas. Gibbons and the band treated it as a bit of Texas lore, telling the story with a wink and leaving listeners to catc
