Pretty much all the others mentioned in this thread are worth a listen. :) Of course David Wilcox! Saw him play at Ryerson in Toronto back in 1984 and then at various times over the years. He was awesome then and still now.

toine 30556 Report post Posted August 9, 2011 What, no one has mentioned Leonard Cohen yet? Not the greatest showman, but what a lyricist! I also love Joni Mitchell's blue period: ...and then there is the rock energy of K-town The Tragically Hips, different generation alright, but already from way back then: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

castle 38816 Report post Posted November 26, 2011 The first new Headstones single in almost 10 years. A somewhat inspirational little diddy called BINTHISWAYFORYEARS from those Kingston lads who simply refuse to fade away. "Ain't nothing better than motherfuckin' rock 'n roll"......truer words have never been spoken :D Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
thedriver 6179 Report post Posted November 27, 2011 Here is one that perhaps no one will know. A local guy from Ottawa that did not make it big but played charity events locally, stage name "Bolt Upright and the Erections". He did a charity event in 1986 with some new members, all local guys from Ottawa most of them worked at CTV. I knew a few guys in the band and my ex-wife was in the audience that night.
