As if there weren’t enough reasons over the past years to make me love Rush more-  with props to CFNY/Toronto, the station that inspired it, Spirit of Radio speaks right at the heart of WMMR/Philadelphia- our staff, our listeners & our city.  Love, love, love this song/video.  Bless you, Rush. - Bill Weston

Rush has unleashed a stunning animated video for "The Spirit Of Radio" onto the world. In the accompanying press release the band says "the animated video captures the magic, spirit and growth of the FM radio format with a nostalgic nod to the pioneering DJ’s broadcasting music into homes around the world."

As lovers of radio, we are so excited to share this with you:

The video serves as part of an ongoing 40th anniversary celebration of Permanent Waves, which has received a reissue release that is available in a variety of formats here.

FLASHBACK: Rush Gets Inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame

Erica Banas is a news blogger who's been covering the rock/classic rock world since 2014. The coolest event she's ever covered in person was the 2021 Rock & Roll Hall of Fame induction ceremony. (Sir Paul McCartney inducting Foo Fighters? C'mon now!) She's also well-versed in etiquette and extraordinarily nice. #TransRightsAreHumanRights
