To celebrate Rush's 40th anniversary, I've put together an extensive timeline of Neil Peart's early years, covering 1952 - 1974.

There are three sections to the timeline:

I: Childhood: 1952 - 1964 - Before drums

II: Early teenage years: 1965 - 1968 - Becoming a drummer

III: Early adult years: 1969 - 1974: Becoming a professional musician

In addition, I wrote two short essays about the history of rock and roll and the technology that made it possible:

A brief history of rock and roll
