It is Sunday and time for the next 5 of Canada’s best music. In this edition, we have an alternative/folk player, some classic rock and some unidentifiable pop.
Coney Hatch, from Toronto, is an 80’s classic rock band. Moderately succesful, they released 3 albums during their run in the sun.
A further entry to the list by Canada’s biggest selling band. This is a live version of Bus Rider, performed by the original band on a reunion tour in 2001. This song was actually a collaboration between Cummings and Kurt Winter. Kurt and Greg Leskiw were tapped to replace Randy Bachman when he left the group. Not that it took 2 players to replace him, just a change in philosophy as the band evolved, utilizing some additional flexibility.
I enjoy travel, sports, music and anything else that jumps up at me for the moment, which is why I blog. There will be lots of travel posts, pictures and our videos as well as a smattering of sports and humor. I enjoy promoting Canada and am unabashedly a proud Albertan

I’m thinking Bus Rider is my new favorite song.
To think I used to cross the lane outside my back door and dance to these guys at teen dances in Winnipeg in the 60’s.
Really dug the Junkhouse tune. I’ll check out the rest tomorrow.
Haven’t heard the Guess Who in at least 15 years. Looking forward to it.
I had never heard the junkhouse tune before today. I thought it was great. The beauty of these us finding new stuff.
