High Class in Borrowed Shoes

[t_ross33]

One of my favorite Canadian bands. Kim Mitchell is one underrated gitter player, too. I've seen him (solo) live and he puts on an awesome show. After huge solo success (in Canada at least) in the mid 80's and thru the 90's, he's all but dropped off the map.

But wait...

New album is out. Gonna have to pick it up. In the meantime, enjoy this little bit of nostalgia. ude:

Don't forget our pal Kim is also the afternoon drive guy on Q107 out of Toronto for the past year or so.

Good to know... Kim was always a class act.

Glad he's back at it.

Max Webster was a killer band back in the 70's and 80's

Holy cow, this thread title sure takes me back.

I immediately recognized the song title but couldn't place the name of the band until a little later. I had (and probably still have) a Max Webster album, haven't heard it in ages. How/why I bought it or otherwise acquired it I have no clue. They were total unknowns here in the States. Good stuff.

Hey Krashpad, check this out for some great "posertude" :AOK:

Sorta like Canadia's answer to Rick Nielsen.

And Weird Al.

Man, as bad as some of the things I wore in the 80's were, at least I didn't ever go the bike shorts/pastel tank top route!
