WHOA! Your vault of Canadian music seems to have NO end! Some great, classic stuff!

A little aside on Blue Rodeo. My cousin Allan, who lives in Grimsby, ON, is a huge Blue Rodeo fan. He and some friends once had a Blue Rodeo tribute band called (tongue-in-cheek) SBR (Shitty Blue Rodeo).  In spite of the name, SBR was actually not too bad. In fact, one time they played a bar in Niagara-On-The-Lake, and Jim Cuddy showed up there. My cousin got to meet him and he asked Allan what SBR stood for. When my cousin told him, Jim had a pretty good laugh.
