    Just saw the show tonight. Easily the most entertaining concert I’ve been to in quite a while. A cross between a comedy show and concert. Massively talented group of guys! If they come your way don’t miss it. You won’t regret it. And while you’re there, take a look around you and check out the smiles on the audience’s faces…

    Americans take note. If you want to pass yourself as Canadian when travelling abroad, familiarise yourself with this album.

    You guys rock! Serious Canadian music that I grew up with.
    Please tour western Canada soon!
    These songs are on the top of my Apple Music set list.
    Love you guys, you’re most amazing!

    Just listened to the album after their Tom Power interview on Q. Just, WOW! It's sooo good. Especially if you grew up on this music like me. The memories came flooding back. The band sounds tight, too! The drums and bass I thought were great. I'm a stoic old fart. I don't dance. I don't sing. These guys made me do both in my workshop. Thankyou, TCH!

    I am a fan of all four of those bands that these guys were in, so it only stands to reason I will love this. Granted, some of the songs are a little beyond my time, but I remember most of them. TCH bring new life into Canadian AM radio standards. That would be a fun show to see live.

    This is one of the most hilarious things I've seen from Canadian musicians in a long long while. It's fantastic that the four of you aren't so far up your own asses like quite a few others of your peers. That you can have so much fun with the "infomercial" along with playing great tunes with such professional skills is incredibly appealing.

    Tremendous. I am hopeful they will take this to the next level & perform the DeFrancos' 'Heartbeat' album back-to-back during their Saskatoon show later this week :)

  • @adriennejean2685

    These are some of my fav songs! This album is the best thing to happen to Canadian music since Loverboy.

    This is the record that I have been waiting for that I didn't even know I wanted! And I know every song. And I also have all the K-tel original albums.
    I am happy! Raised On Robbery is my favourite Joni Mitchell song! How did they know?!

    I'm sorry to see Ian Thomas's "Painted Ladies" left off this effort. That has got to be one of the best Canadian pop songs ever written.

  • @mr.deonchemistry4708

    Ok. This album is so good. Here's hoping for an album of original songs.

    @pamelajordan6392 10 месяцев назад +2

    I'm excited about this album and collaborative project more generally, but I just wish that a female musician were involved. BTW, I'm a Canadian Gen Xer, and I'm embarrassed to admit that I didn't know that the DeFranco Family was Canadian.

    Good to see Chris Murphy get a gig after his all too brief time with White Cowbell Oklahomie. Didn't recognize Stephen Page not wearing shorts.
