Countless musicians have spent countless years sitting in countless rec rooms, meticulously mastering the twists and turns of classic Rush riffs.

So it only seems like payback that on their latest disc Feedback, Canada's original power trio flip the script and get back in touch with their inner garage band.

On this eight-song EP, Geddy Lee, Alex Lifeson and Neil Peart flick on the black light of nostalgia and revisit '60s favourites from The Yardbirds, The Who, Buffalo Springfield, Cream and others.

And from the proto-punk rumble of the Blue Cheer version of Summertime Blues to the punchy power of Pete Townshend's The Seeker, from the ominous twang of Neil Young's Mr. Soul to the galloping thunder of Love's Seven and Seven Is, from the swirling acidity of Shapes of Things to the funky blues of Crossroads, these reverent, no-frills renditions are delivered with all the immediacy, excitement and sheer fun of the ultimate basement jam.

Here's hoping for a sequel. And that we can get them to cook up a version of In the Mood next time.
