Toronto's Gowan
In the 1980s Larry Gowan had a number of medium-sized hits as a solo artist in Canada, most notably Criminal Mind, which had great video depicting Gowan as a comic-book style super-villain. Since then, he has become the lead singer and front-man for the current lineup of Styx.
This is classic-rock rock legends Styx performing Larry Gowan's Can-con solo hit live in Toronto.
And this is Suite Madame Blue, which is not Canadian content but it puts chills up my spine each time I hear it. It was released in 1976 and some thought it was rah-rah patriotism for the American bicentennial, but it was actually an admonishment. "America, I love you babe, but you have to get your
**** together."
