I saw them in Vegas, they opened for loverboy and blew them off the stage, they returned a month later headlining, they f#*?king kicked ass, one of the best live shows I've seen, will never forget that one.
So sorry to hear Myles Goodwyn has passed away today. One of my fave songs from April Wine and a great live performance. Thanks for your contributions to the soundtrack of my life. Godspeed Myles. RIP.
So So True a better time for sure . We spent a whole weekend dedicated to April Wine lol. I am sure everyone in town showed up at one time or the other .. Lol
Brian Swezey I AM 57, DUDE YOUR SO RITE! Don’t know what these kids are listening to now.THIS is MUSIC,growing up in the 70’s was the BEST!!☝️☝️SKYNYRD,NUGENT,AEROSMITH,the list is ENDLESS! THE BEST OF TIMES HUH!✌️✌️👍👍☝️
Myles Goodwyn's voice is timeless... I was 12 when I stole my older brother's April Wine 8-Track and jammed out to it at my cousin's house. It was worth the beating.
April Wine, our Great Canadian friends. Love Y'all! Always have. Then, awhile back, I adopted out a foster cocker whom I was unshure he would be and was very fine with that, Clifford the Big Red Dog went to Canada. Adopted at age 11, blind, etc.
My band in Las Vegas got to open for these guys! They were the greatest guys, had beers and conversation at sound check & after the gig. I'll never forget that night. The best people ever!
These guys and Trooper, Prism, Rush, and Triumph, were larger than life growing up in Canada in the 70's. We had so much incredible rock music, but we had no idea how lucky we were. Where is the April Wine's of today? They don't exist.
April Wine and Rush were my 2 top Canadian bands ever. Listened to their music to no end back in my youth, and actually still play both a decent amount to this day. There are not many that can even come close to this perfection these days. These 2 bands made me fall in love with rock music. Myles will be soo missed forever
Explain to me how they were underrated. Also is it just standard for people to randomly say this band or this person was “underrated” that is on every damn video on RUclips someone says that same exact comment.
Myles grew up just down the Waverly Road from where I live now. Saw them one of the last times they played. Big concert on the waterfront 2 Labour Day weekends ago. Man they still had it. THey should have been so much a bigger deal.
♥️ R.I.P. Myles thank you for the wonderful music of our lifetimes🥀🕊️😪. This is the part I dislike about getting older, we’re losing the “greats” we grew up with en masse now. Peace to all.
@@notmyname3883 I said he is overlooked because when reading about great rock drummers, he is almost never mentioned. Of course I've heard of him why did you think I was here in the first place.
@@notmyname3883 April Wine ruled but sadly were barely known outside Canada. Even drumming magazines barely mentioned Jerry compared to many drummers out there; the average Canadian and especially the average American or British listener would not have known his name. April Wine regrettably got very little radio time in America and UK. I was lucky to see them three times in concert.
@@buggy6550 you do know you can get a turntable/cdrecorder right? My exwife took all my albums in the divorce and then laughed at me when she put them on cd after getting that thing I mentioned. Then you can continue to keep it safe while listening to the album sound which is like no other.
Actually, if people enjoy it then I suppose that's all that's important. But subjectively speaking, IMHO, April Wine was certainly not a lot more than a standard mainstream band (no offense to Canadians), but certainly they really weren't anything special. More in the same genre with Def Leppard, Triumph, Night Ranger, Bon Jovi, Foreigner, big audiences, big shows, big sounds, but entirely pridictable and boring. I'd put Journey in that group, too even though it had some the best musicians of the time. AW may have had fine musicians, but it's music don't not break new ground nor was it terribly creative. More formulaic, standard stuff for commercial markets. It's really can't compare to what Bands like Rush, Elvis Costello The Pretenders, Roxy Music, Lods Triadores, YES, ELP, Queen, VH, Pink Floyd, The Stones and the Talking Heads, the Clash, The Angels, and even ACDC (with Bon Scott), were putting out at that time (Zeppelin was already in a death spiral since '75). Therr is GREAT music today, you just might not be accessing it, but certainly The Black Keys, The White Stripes, Noir Desir, Portugal the Man, Spoon, Beck, The Killers, among many others. Very few rock bands have their zenith extend beyond 1 or 2 albums, and 4 or more is very rare. It's the nature of the beast. So one needs to continually look for new music and inspiration even if it means looking outside North America and the British Isles.
yep,its your opinion.everyone in Canada who like hard rock know and love april wine,they are definitely loved and appreciated as shown by the millions of albums they sold
Seen these cats in the 80's then again 5 years ago. Was my 55 B day and we had row 8, sitting on the grass in penticton Bc. Aug, beautiful weather and DAMN. .The voice was bout 95% and the guitars 100% . After all these years THEY STILL HAD IT.. GREAT WAY to spend a birthday. Hell of a party...
it still gets me going after all these years. i am so impressed that a band can have so many lead guitars and they don't step on each other trying to show off. just about as professional as you can get. i hope to see you guys soon keep on rockin!
Very Sad news Myles Goodwin has passed away April Wine was a top Canadian Band that never got the notoriety they deserved God Bless Myles has he left us all and is back home in God House
April Wine was my first official concert in my life, Frank Marino and Mahogany Rush opened for them, July 19th 1974. Electric Jewels is still my favorite album. My Nephews band opened for them Nov 19 2019, taking me full circle.
God Bless! We are losing the great talents that shaped the soundtrack of our lives.. To see Myles passing is just another tremendous loss we all must suffer, God Bless his family and friends, God Bless the memories he and the band gave us R.I.P
I wouldn't call them underrated, they were really big back in the day . Underrated is a group like the Gary Seidell Project , one of the greatest bands ever yet I can bet you never heard of them.
Dual and triple lead guitars are somewhat rare and usually done mostly by Southern rock and long jam bands like the Allman Brothers, the Outlaws and Thin Lizzy. Thin Lizzy actually had a 3 and sometimes even 4 leads at some of their concerts.. also 2 drummers are common..
Saw these guys several times in the early 80's for $5.50 in advance, $6.50 day of show...sometimes saw them when they were an opening act. Incredible live band, they absolutely jammed when they weren't sounding exactly like the studio albums, what a show they put on every time ❤❤❤
Just recently perused a list of the top 30 drummers of all time, and was heartbroken Jerry Mercer wasn’t on the list. Saw him and April Wine live once and still am amazed at what he did.
I remember the first time I heard them! 😃 We were headed to Reno from Sacramento to party/gamble In 1979..."Rollin" came on the radio and we were all blown away!!!...like it was an omen from the Rock n Roll Gods or something!!! Thank you April Wine!!😃✌️
I'm 62 now & when I was 18 or 19 (not sure) I saw April Wine live. Though I don't remember it all it was One of the best concerts I've ever seen. RIP Myles. You are sadly missed.
Seen April wine twice. Once in the mid 80's as I'm older and once at pentictons peach fest bout 8 years ago. Still killer group from vocals to guitars that many years later. Rare but occasionally it genetically plays out that way. Luv em Rip miles
Man April Wine was the BEST in the 70s and 80s...PURE ROCK N ROLL!!!
I've always said that from 1977-1983 was the ABSOLUTE BEST YEARS FOR ROCK MUSIC!!!

I'm 62 now & when I was 18 or 19 (not sure) I saw April Wine live. Though I don't remember it all it was One of the best concerts I've ever seen. RIP Myles. You are sadly missed.
RIP Myles Goodwyn. You are a rock legend
Sadly Myles passed away over the weekend (12/2/2023) - RIP - he's now playing under the Sign of the Gypsy Queen
Heartbreak. Please know you are so loved . ❤
IT WAS A SAD DAY
Seen April wine twice.
Once in the mid 80's as I'm older and once at pentictons peach fest bout 8 years ago. Still killer group from vocals to guitars that many years later. Rare but occasionally it genetically plays out that way. Luv em
Rip miles
One of the most uniquely great voices in Rock and roll
It's just a jump back 3:58 if you want to be there... Let's not be shy, portals...
Nothing better than vintage wine.
