  • Very rare footage of Ron Tabak and Prism performing live at Mosport Park in Bowmanville, Ontario on August 26, 1978.
    Most of the legwork on this was done by Steve Lichti who married the original board tape audio to a second generation VHS copy of the video. I did the upscale and tried to pull some more detail out of the original recording. However, the limitations of the source video is obvious.
    Hope you enjoy!

      Tough to source them, sadly. This one was a second or third generation VHS dub.

    Saw them “back in the day” in 1977 at the Whiskey in Los Angeles. They were phenomenal and should of made it big. “Open Soul Surgery” was another one of their great songs. It was great to be able to partake in the Southern California music scene back in the 1970’s!

      Grew up listening to them . They are grossly underated. Their debut is one of the great debut albums of all time. Ron Tabac voice was unigue. Sadly missed getting to see thrm live.

      The footage has been around for a while but it's generally in horrific condition. I worked on this which was an upload of a a third generation VHS dub. I was able to get a hold of a remastered board tape for the audio.

    Thanks fo the upload. I hadn't scene this performance before. Such a tragic end for Ron. I was literally just a kid when this song was released and it still is every bit as great today.

    Only TWO CANADIAN BANDS, at Canada Jam. No April Wine? Rush? Burton Cummings? Chilliwack? BTO? Harlequin? Max Webster? Be it the politics of attracting Yankee acts, when Canadian acts were just as good. By watching Ron in this video, he must have been a freak with the groupies and fun. lol. Rest in peace bro, you died a 1980s death of a true space ship superstar
