For Feedback, their 2004 EP, Rush went back to the 1960s and cut eight covers of songs that had shaped them, and Eddie Cochran and Jerry Capehart's "Summertime Blues" made the cut. The EP was a birthday card to themselves: it marked 30 years since the debut album Geddy Lee and Alex Lifeson made with John Rutsey, and 30 years since Neil Peart came in to replace him, and it came with the R30 anniversary tour.
Lee plays bass and sings lead, Lifeson plays guitar, and Peart handles the drums. David Leonard produced it with the band, recorded it with Michael Jack, and mixed it. The whole EP got a fresh remaster from Sean Magee at Abbey Road Studios in 2016.
