  1. On a lighter note; Billy Squire! I remember jive hopping across the floor at school dances, hoping for someone to dance to such cool songs! Love Billy Squire!
  2. ^Man, I love Curtis Mayfield @RWMc1. But I did not know his story. That song is almost a direct medium between acid jazz, punk rock & the blues. And those lyrics are bluer than blue...
  3. I lived in Edmonton for a while. The only thing to come from it, from the bottom of the pile, like some old tin can? Was an appreciation of Big Sugar! I had lost my way...
  4. Hey, can anyone help me with my (bad ) memory? After I left Canada 15 odd years ago, a Winnipeg band, I believe Winnipeg based (?) band much like the Trews appeared. Believe they played the Grey Cup, give or take 2008, 2009. Couple guys at least that sorta look like a younger Randy Bachman, similar sound to the Trews...
  5. That's am interesting question? Whether Vaxjo will let him play?
  6. Thanks for your input. (!!!) Be interesting to hear their feedback on the next tier of young SELérs. Lias Anderson, Brannstrom & Heskainen who some are just as high as we are on EP?
  7. Me too... But? Top competing team in the SHL. Not sure they are expected to make an early exit.
  8. My two favorites. And I bought a Euro import of Dirty Deeds, about year 8 in school. Because the first Canadian versions did not believe that my Big Balls, should be held every night?
  9. Lol, Never saw this cut before... Malcolm please don't go!
  10. Oh? Now I understand why the ACDC songs started appearing. Here is some late 70's stuff. In the port town Freemantle, once his home, there is a statue of Bonn Scott by the harbour. We'd go down for fish and chips and my kids would climb on his shoulders. Play air guitar and sing. Soon we'll add statues of Malcolm, Angus... RIP Malcolm.
  11. Or hear some really good country? I swear a sense of Janis Joplin lives in this song.
  12. Switching gears, Chris Barber. I could ;listen all day. An infamous British jazz musician, composer, who deeply loved & backed the blues. If you listen carefully you will hear the unmistakable sound of Dixieland. If you listen deeper, hidden in a horn, you may hear the riff's of the best blues guitarists...
  13. Funny enough, don't think I have ever posted my favourite song, my favourite band... (who woulda thunk?)
  14. Long before Eddie, this song brought a tear to my eye. Not even the original...
  15. I think this would have had airtime in Canada, anyone? Also has Dreams Catch Me. One man band Aussie Folk Rocker Newton Falkner. (He's very good...)
  16. 2015 (14?) I went to a General Admission music festival, Santana a headliner. Pushed, shoved, got crushed and held my ground for dead set front row in the middle siting. One of my bucket list dream shows to attend. What a nice man Santana. Through the course of the show I noticed he gave a guitar pick, a hat, a vest, drumsticks, a tamborine to ladies in the crowd. I realized what he was doing with the tamborine. He tried to give a hat to a particular young lady. It was grabbed by someone else, so he had security bring her closer to gift the simple instrument. I realized he had been giving gifts to all the ladies in the audience with a shaved head or beanie (toque). It was 35 degree's in Perth. Just a gesture to all cancer victims without interrupting the show or drawing attention to them...
  17. I should have grown up in the North end 20 years later?
  18. Maybe its Elias, not a new PMD as our PPQB on the new horizon? I've seen a few articles. The Hockey News has a weekly hot prospects report. A few weeks ago they mentioned it would be redundant to put him in every week??? Here is some more; http://dailyhive.com/vancouver/canucks-prospect-elias-pettersson-sweden-2017 https://theathletic.com/116416/2017/10/03/elias-pettersson-has-bright-future-according-to-those-who-know-him-best/
  19. edit: lil bit funnier clip of the same song... I came for the song. And left to go watch a movie...
