The final book written by late drumsmasher Neil Peart will be published posthumously in a few months.
In his book Silver Surfers – expected in May – Peart detailed his love of 1960s sports cars, as explained in a ‘Gram post from the band.
Says Peart: “The title Silver Surfers for my collection of cars occurred to me while driving my DB5 up and down the Pacific Coast Highway. Because it felt right to me, I guess – the idea that I was just one of the wave riders. In search of natural peace, I often drove out that way and up in to the Santa Monica Mountains. Out past Malibu to Ventura County, I’d weave along barren ridges of rock and vegetation, the ocean always on one big side. The waves were slow and gentle, or churned out a powerful, rolling rhythm ….”
A portion of the book proceeds will go to both the Neil Peart Memorial at Lakeside Park and the American Brain Tumor Association from the estate of Neil Peart. Silver Surfers can be preordered over here.
Love, Dr. Scott James
