Random Rock Song Of The Night
Working Man
by Rush
This was one of the few popular Rush songs not co-written by Neil Peart, who hadn't joined the group yet (John Rutsey was their drummer). “Working Man" was written by Geddy Lee and Alex Lifeson.

This is absolutely one of the best covers of a #Rush song I’ve ever heard. Absolutely phenomenal playing. Incredible seeing a teen band rock out so hard to such a epic and difficult song to play 🔥🔥 #SpiritOfRadio #Canada 🇨🇦

Feel for you. Have a listen to “Trump's Project 2025: Up Close and Personal” on your podcast source of choice for an idea of what might be in store. Sadly, the effects of this won’t be confined within your borders. Worrying.
M*A*S*H Classic, ageless comedy set in the most difficult of circumstances. Of course, growing up in the UK in the 70s we were spared the god-awful laughter track. HAS to be watched without the laughter track.
