Popular Post Cerridwen Posted September 22, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted September 22, 2023 Our well missed Shaky Walton first created this thread over 17 years ago at our other home and it is my honour to open the 2023 Edition here. There are so many great Canadian artists and bands... from years ago and from today. Let's give them a little (lotta) love here!! Thank you RWMc1 for the suggestion! A little Michael Pagliaro.... A touch of Chilliwack....... And always a little Gordon Lightfoot... 2 3 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coconuts Posted September 22, 2023 Share Posted September 22, 2023 A good way to keep a bit of him around. One thing about CDC going under is the loss of profiles, historic threads and the like, some of those are mementos to posters and times that have come and gone. It's a modern thing to ponder but the erasure of one's online footprint is a sobering thought, having online bits left behind can be good. Facebook, instagram and other sorts of profiles leaving behind pictures and videos of loved ones, that sort of thing. Sometimes the mementos we make are all we have. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chon derry Posted September 22, 2023 Share Posted September 22, 2023 (edited) @Jack Gordon so Were the collectors comprised of the same musicians ? Or was chilliwack a total different band with it musicians ? The collectors was a little before my time. I know Ross tourney and Claire Lawrence were with chilliwack at the start. Lawrence went on to do music with the beachcombers series. Edited September 22, 2023 by Chon derry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's the same group Grapes, just with Bill Henderson taking over the role as lead singer from Howie Vickers. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Opus x. Being chilliwacks final album was good. A very refined version of chilliwack. It was sad because Brian McLeod and Ab Bryant both being much younger than Henderson wanted to go heavier and then the headpins were born. At the time the headpins were Bcs heaviest band. I would have loved to see chilliwack go on from that. 1 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There isn’t an older commercial fisherman on this coast that doesn’t have this song cranked. Up here on the north coast this song is alive and well 50 years later. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That whole album is great from start to finish. At one time it was the only Canadian album to get the highest rating in Rolling Stone. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Henderson never sold out to the US market with somehow attaching the song and relating it to something in the US. He remained honestly creative not needing to resort to it. A Canadian treasure Indeed. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
