Canada had, and has, some very cool moments in music.

Love them!

Rick Emmett is a great guitar player.

He can hit the high ones too.

[Wyatt's Torch]

Saw them live around 1985’ish. Great live show. Drum solo where the drummer was strapped in and the stage turned upside down. Never quite got the acclaim Rush did as a Canadian power trio.

Wow - 1979. We used to drive to a lake with Molsen beer and crank songs like this. The cops would sometimes pull by and tell us “be safe” and then drive off. A different time.

Rock & Roll Machine !

[Buckeye McFrog]

How many people listen to that and are too young to know that they were named after a motorcycle?

[Republican Extremist]

I saw them in a high schol gym in Chatanooga back in about 1979. A great three man band. The equal of Rush, IMHO.

Midsummer’s Daydream is probably my favorite guitar piece. Here is a recent live version (2009?) and the original studio version.

Triumph was the first concert I ever saw. Klienhans Music Hall in Buffalo. I think it was 1978 or 79. That was where the Buffalo Philharmonic orchestra played. Of course, I also liked Rush and Asia.

They were my fav!!!!!!

[Michigan Bowhunter]

was able to interview the band when I was in high school back in 1984 or 85....its been a long time. They were one of the better concerts I have been to and they were a very good interview. Gotta love backstage passes for free and good connections!

We could talk about Frank Zappa too. I just moved on to “fine girl”.
