Good grief sammy2fish. Now you've made me feel old. I remember seeing them at the Reading Rock Festival back in 1979.

Hmmm ... I've never heard of April Wine ... but looking at the videos, they look like one of the 1980s "hair bands." Still ... they are good!

This is mine, The Bangles (yes has a lot to do with Suzanna Hoffs, hot forever)

Eternal flame: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DPxVIx06_CQ

Manic Mondays:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IQoijFax5Ic

They have produced way more music then many know ... Best lady band ever.

This live concert in Pittsburg gives a fair idea: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0ubhAGhv8HI

You never heard of April Wine?

Ok, I guess... I live in Canada.
 
My EX really loves this band.  They have many good songs.

You need to torrent their songs.  They are quite good.............

Yep, one of my favorites too. Along with The Band, Emerson, Lake & Palmer, Cream.

We also loved (and still do) Uriah Heep (who we were lucky enough to meet in Düsseldorf), even though they didn't quite fit into the category of those above.

But the times were fantastic - we were young, and everything was simply great  :D

You're damn right!
