Fitting that on the day we mark 40 years since the passing of the great John Bonham we’d come across a tribute to another all-time great rock drummer.
Stoner-rock stalwarts Fu Manchu recently released a cover of “Working Man” by Rush to honor the late Neil Peart. Proceeds from sales of the song will benefit brain tumor research at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in his memory. Check it out below.
