Those vocals by The Shang Hi Los sounded familiar. Checked and it is Jenn D'Angora!!! Seems like everything I've heard of hers has been great! Thanx for playing The Shang Hi Los!! Great stuff!!

Hi Benoît and Dave. Thanks for tuning in.

1:42 PM, March 1st, 2023
Frankie
Here and hearing. Very nice rocking stuff from The Shang Hi Los.

1:42 PM, March 1st, 2023
Nancy
Enjoying a live listen for a change. 💙

1:46 PM, March 1st, 2023
Renny G (host)
Wow. I think there's enough people to start a riot.

1:48 PM, March 1st, 2023
Renny G (host)
The question I always get is "What are you rioting against?"

1:51 PM, March 1st, 2023
Renny G (host)
Whaddya got?

1:52 PM, March 1st, 2023
Renny G (host)
New & Canadian. That's a double barreled delight.

2:03 PM, March 1st, 2023
Ian
Quality combo of now sounds, Renny!

2:08 PM, March 1st, 2023
Renny G (host)
Not bad for a guy who's usually at least ten years behind the times.

2:09 PM, March 1st, 2023
B
Leave Your Mark rocks.

2:10 PM, March 1st, 2023
Renny G (host)
Suckerpunch is one of my favourite Canadian groups. A trio, with two twin brothers on guitar and bass and a woman on drums. One of my few fond memories of Toronto is seeing them play at Sneaky Dee's.

2:13 PM, March 1st, 2023
Renny G (host)
Unfortunately, they only put out one album.

2:14 PM, March 1st, 2023
B
Hmm. There are times when a trio shows "we don't need a goddamn 4th member!"

2:23 PM, March 1st, 2023
Ian
Don't forget, a BTO cover US scum rockers is still precious CanCon!

2:24 PM, March 1st, 2023
Renny G (host)
Trios never lie. There's not as much room to flub a song when there are only three members.

2:24 PM, March 1st, 2023
Renny G (host)
Thanks Ian.

2:25 PM, March 1st, 2023
Renny G (host)
Oh my goodness, not more new music? Yup.

2:27 PM, March 1st, 2023
B
And then again (trios), the Hip's Gord Downie, and them two guitars, none of them was less than essential to their music.

2:33 PM, March 1st, 2023
Renny G (host)
True, but I do love it when rock & roll is stripped down to it's skivvies. Trios, duos, even a good one man band, of which there are many.

2:37 PM, March 1st, 2023
B
Great first sentence there!

2:40 PM, March 1st, 2023
Renny G (host)
CCR - The hottest band from the South to come from the West Coast.

2:56 PM, March 1st, 2023
Renny G (host)
Yeah, I really like this band. They remind me of the Detroit Cobras.

3:00 PM, March 1st, 2023
Renny G (host)
The Sunday Sinners I mean.

3:02 PM, March 1st, 2023
B
Yup. Now to that Monkees song... In the end, they were surprisingly good, for a completely-made-up band.

3:07 PM, March 1st, 2023
B
They were in effect a pastiche of The Beatles in their *Help* stage.

3:09 PM, March 1st, 2023
Frankie
Yes, it seems the Monkees were musically as good as a lot of "real' bands

3:12 PM, March 1st, 2023
Renny G (host)
I like Steppin' Stone and Last Train To Clarksville. That's about it.

3:12 PM, March 1st, 2023
Renny G (host)
What's round at both ends and high in the middle?

I liked the Mike Nesmith stuff, Papa Gene"s Blues etc.

3:19 PM, March 1st, 2023
Renny G (host)
The music on the albums of the Monkees was played by a studio band, the vocals were recorded afterwards.

3:21 PM, March 1st, 2023
Renny G (host)
I confess that I don't know Mike Nesmith's music, Frankie.

3:22 PM, March 1st, 2023
B
Renny: early albums. I think they got to actually doing it, later.

3:26 PM, March 1st, 2023
B
Righteous show, Rennie: thanks!

3:27 PM, March 1st, 2023
Renny G (host)
Thank you for listening Benoît.

Just joining after some errands. Catching up... "What are you rioting against?" --> how about rioting against shitty bland radio ... OH! problem solved!!! q;^)

3:30 PM, March 1st, 2023
Renny G (host)
