"With only fear and good judgement holdin' us back." Heh, such a great line. You know you're a sailor when you hear that line and it puts a big ol' smile on your face.

One of the world's greatest bands! Not getting the credit they deserved because of being Canadian rather than American or British!

Well I was a huge huge trooper fan growing up with these awesome songs,,then came the day I met them in the back alley club in Banff,I was sooooo disappointed,, racist arrogant are only a couple of things that turned me off of the band,,I still think they are amazing musicians,,but as human beings..I'm very let down,no class at all,,may be that's why the American neighbors didn't give them Thier break..who knows..but I still have hope they will turn around as human beings,,the ones I seen that night totally disappointed me

Thank goodness for KZitem, I used to hear this on what was possibly the best radio station in North America, CKWW. They were recently sold and they changed the era of their songs plus now have "personalities". I'm REALLY going to miss that station!

They still ARE a great band. Saw them at Rock 'n Roar in Spanish Ontario, Aug. 2011 with The Headpins, Nazareth, Helix, Kim Mitchell, and these boys closed the show. Two nights of great music and good times despite the rain. My son's first concert.

Agreed. I saw all of those people aswell on rock ambleside. But 2016. Crazy how the exact same performers meetup again and did a giant show. Was a really beautiful thing to see as an 18 year old, especially with all the shitty “music” these days

Hi Biddles. Spanish is a small village-like settlement on HWY 17 which is the highway going west off HWY 11(transCanada) when going through North Bay and Sudbury. Cozy little area, nice lakes, lots of trees, friendly folks who know how to party. LOL About 40 - 50kms west of Sudbury. They have a rock 'n roar every year with emphasis on Canadian bands. In 2010 it was Prism, The Stampeders, Honeymoon Suite & April Wine. This year it was Chilliwack, Dr. Hook, Great White & Lou Gramm to name a few.
