Well this is a follow-up post from my last one.
Most music lovers in Ontario in the 80’s, were exposed to and grew up with some of the most extraordinary musical talents. But the ones that were
I bet that these guys would have done well for themselves in the European market. Bands of that era especially Saga, which had a huge cult following in Germany, shows that it can be done! Some of them tended to just peter off a bit in their later stages of the European introduction.
I just thought that I would introduce to you all, to an eye opening Canadian talent that changed my view of how to play in a uniquely Canadian way. Some of you I highly recommend you listen to this a couple of times, to really appreciate it. The guys are truly showing us here their advanced interpretations of just how to play their music to us here. Imagine the guys who influenced them!
I would just killed to play this song live with the old Pylis band. Our keyboardist Tony could play anything on those damn black boxes of his! The guy is just way too modest for this world (you got that Tony?).
So without further adieu … Ladies and Gentlemen … FM!!!
Oh, BTW, Nash is the guy in the bandages.
This little ditty is of them during their Gary Neuman period. There is a great hint of Roxy Music and Yes in there to tantalize your musical ear as well.

great videos! Thanks for the link.

My pleasure Ariah! I hope to keep the torch set high for all to see.
Well I hope to bring re-newed life back to a band that I think has not been given a good enough kick at the can!
These guys really were a head of the curve for their time. Their talent was definitely world class but their exposure was only regionally. Too bad that that is always the case.
I do want to know if anyone out there has a copy of this concert that was put on youtube. Someone must a copy!
If you do, I would love to find out what the name of it is and who made it. Please tell us because I would love to have this copy for my music DVD collection!
Keep on Jammin’
