Still going through a 2 week farewell to The Tragically Hip

Heatbreaking what Gord Downie is going through. One of the good guys.

From this great performance on SNL in 1995

To Downie's final scream and farewell last week.

Only Neil Young offers any competition as the finest Canada has ever produced. Massively underrated in Britain and far superior to the vast majority of bands worshipped over here.

The new Dinosaur Jr CD, Give a Glimpse of What Yer Not.

Really enjoying it.

Excellent isn't it, love a bit of dinosaur Jr. Incidentally I saw them in the late 90s and it was comfortably the loudest gig I've ever been to.

A nice bit of Abner Jay for a relaxed cotton-picking afternoon:

 

A fine song. Although I have to say the original by the Great Society is better.

The only track I could find from their hugely recommended Balboa Island album:

 

Great voice.

 

Another great voice

Such a great band, found them through hockey where they are obviously a big thing too as being Canadian.

U2 Live at Red Rocks back in June 1983.

 

40.

 

 

The Alarm and 'Rain in the Summer time'.

Great song, from one of my favourite all time bands.

Am planning to see this band, Salvation Jayne, next Tuesday. A fine cover of a classic song.

 

 

 

 

 

More Sade from back in 1984.

Cautiously optimistic

Possibly the best jam session of all time.
