[QUOTE=jpjrulestheworld]I've never heard of him.[/QUOTE]

I've got one of his albums and it's really good. One half is written by Baldry, and I think the other half might be written by Elton John. Elton John didn't use that name back then though. It's very bluesy, and a lot of the songs are great.

Anyone who is a fan of genuine blues might wanna check him out. He had one really famous song...the name escapes me. I will search thet net, or wait til I get home.

Ha, man. No need to poo poo on Canada. I should inject you with Aids so that you have to pay lots of hospital bills :mad:

Canadians don't even have AIDS, they have SARS.

Give him SARS, you guys had that right?

BludgeonySteve 01-28-2005 11:12 PM

Oh yeah well we get treatment free so ha!

Umm, Canadian classic rock is cool (keeping it on topic

jpj 01-28-2005 11:12 PM

Yea, go Rush!

thickasabrick 01-28-2005 11:13 PM

K the Baldry album I have is called It Ain't Easy. I don't remember the name of the song, but the famous line was "Don't try to lay no boogie woogie on the king of rock n roll." Some of you might have heard it. He's been around forever, and apparently is still putting out albums. Very underground though. He was six foot seven by the way...which was why he got his nickname long john. plus he wore tophats which made him look even taller.

edit- and i need to remember this phone number 781-7737, but i dont have a pen...so i'm sticking it on here until i get home.

lunch998 01-28-2005 11:13 PM

More like SARS Rock.

BludgeonySteve 01-28-2005 11:13 PM

W00t yay for Rush. BTO, Kim Mitchell and that guy with the harmonica!

Canada fux0rz U up

jpj 01-28-2005 11:14 PM

Don't forget The Band! At least they look Canadian.

BludgeonySteve 01-28-2005 11:15 PM

Oh of course.

thickasabrick 01-28-2005 11:16 PM

Canadian musicians were great. I say were, because I'm not a fan of most of the Canadian bands/artists around today. I don't even think SARS made it to Saskatchewan, everyone totally skips over it on the way to Ontario or Alberta/BC

BTO was great. Very catchy music, great for driving.

Talking about Canadian people?

BludgeonySteve 01-28-2005 11:39 PM

Mainly Canadian classic roxorz because we like to stay on topic and not argue stupidly. Riiiiiiight?

April Wine is a good corperate rock (yes it's possible) band from Canada. Bryan Adams is good, atleast his rock songs are.


And then there's the greatest Canadian of all who should have been nominated for the greatest Canadian.

We are [B]discussing[/B] Canadian [B]musicians[/B]. The bolded text is subject to change.

And I love April Wine. Great songwriters, their songs have diversity to them, they never really stuck to the same sound.

jpj 01-28-2005 11:40 PM

Calling something corporate rock to me is like insulting it. I prefer Arena Rock or just Hard Rock.

Badmoon 01-28-2005 11:41 PM

No :)

Agreed :)

thickasabrick 01-28-2005 11:45 PM

Bryan Adams never really appealed to me. He's got a couple songs that I will listen to, some are catchy, but I don't think I would ever stick in one of his cds, when there are other (most likely better) cd's around.

I like Jack and Diane, and Summer of 69. I'm fairly sure they are by him, although I always get him confused with a few different artists.

MalcolmYoungRock 01-28-2005 11:45 PM

You forgot Neil Young with the Canadian list.

Or was that "the guy with the harmonica"

Rep Update: I've got 903! I'm almost popular!

jpj 01-28-2005 11:45 PM

Yea, that's him. Bryan Adams that is.

And I'm pretty sure that was Neil Young.

MalcolmYoungRock 01-28-2005 11:47 PM

Ah, m'kay.

Speaking of Neil Young, I got "Shakey" a biography of him.

Should I return it or is it any good?

thickasabrick 01-28-2005 11:50 PM

How in the world could anyone refer to Neil Young as 'the guy with the harmonica'??
That's like saying Paul Mcartney is 'the guy with the bass.' Theres no way to tell who you are talking about.

But yea, Neil Young is probably my favourite Canadian artist.

edit- and quickly read the bio to see if it's good, then return it if it's bad. It's a win win situation, but you better have a lot of time on your hands.

BludgeonySteve 01-28-2005 11:53 PM

Pfft. no. Tom Cochrane plays a mean harmonica, I meant him. I just didn't want to speak god's name because the man you are all reffering to is indeed god.

PinkFreud 01-28-2005 11:53 PM

sorry to disrupt the canadian discussion but i just got george harrisons brainwashed and am really digging it. anyone else like it? nad back to canadian musicians, i dont really like how rush are canadas ambassadors of music but its probably only because i dont like rush, and by rush, i mean geddy lees voice. but yeah, neil young rocks.

Actually, I needed a biography for a report...

I do like Tom Cochrane. Anyone here listen to David Wilcox? I don't think he's Canadian, so this is irrelevent to the conversation...but he can play a decent guitar in some of his songs. I like Do the Bearcat, and Hypnotizing Boogie.
