Rush, Red Barchetta - Sonically brilliant, this song is rather oppressive in its premise that driving has been outlawed. Inspired by the November 1973 Road and Track magazine article A Nice Morning Drive, which had a futuristic doomsday vibe to it, the powerful song is named for the ultrarare, ultracool, classic Ferrari 166, known as the Barchetta (little boat in Italian). The tune also has hints of the 1981 movie The Last Chase, where Lee Majors (The $6 Million Man) drives the last car (a Porsche Can-Am style racecar he had hidden under his garage) to California as an act of defiance against the dictatorship running the country.
