Genre: Folk
Places I remember: Marbecks Records
Fab, and all the other pimply hyperboles: Wondering Where The Lions Are
Gear costume: After The Rain
Active compensatory factors: The hook (to buy the whole album) was the awesomeness of Wondering Where The Lions Are. My children know this song really well. Not only did I play it a lot but I would often wake them up in the morning with the opening lines:
Sun's up, uuh huh, looks okay
The world survives into another day
And I'm thinking about eternity
Some kind of ecstasy got a hold on me.
After The Rain is a beautiful tone poem reflection that floats along a few feet above the ground. Gorgeous music!
The rest of the album cannot rise to those lofty heights but is nothing less than good honest Canadian folk/rock music.
Where do they all belong? With other obscure Canadian folkies like Neil Young and Joni Mitchell.
