“ Into the 80s: Great TORONTO Bands!”



“Into the 80s: Great TORONTO Bands!”

Liner notes by Jaime Vernon



“... Initially, Yonge Street had been the hotbed of music throughout the '60s and '70s with clubs on every block from King Street at the bottom up to Davenport where the Masonic Temple's 'Rockpile' and the legendary Yorkville scene exploded to the west. Entrepreneurs like Sam Sniderman were smart enough to build retail outlets like Sam The Record Man on the Yonge Street strip to supply music enthusiasts the records they heard from bands in the clubs nearby - either traditional HogTown R & B or straight up Rock music.


Meanwhile, Queen Street's music scene rose up from the rundown old storefronts and shops that had been forgotten in the shadow of...”  ...read more about the times and the bands

CD Review: “Tattoo Black” by Dylan Wickens & The Grand Naturals


“With a groove and sound distinctly their own, it is quite appearant that when the phone rang, Dylan Wickens & The Grand Naturals, not only answered it, but they made it abundantly clear that they are the new force to be reckoned with, when it comes to the Canadian Blues, Classic Rock, and Southern Rock Music Scene.


"Tattoo Black" is an extraordinarily good Debut Release, one in which they should be very proud of, as we as Canadians are proud to call them, one of our own.

        .... Blues Underground Network - Five Star Rated

... Excellent CD...  Thoroughly Enjoyed It...  Highly Recommended...
