I'm a hoser at heart, but quite partial to Gowan's big G earring.
One
The Great White North - Bob & Doug McKenzie (1981): The hit single Take Off featured Geddy Lee from Rush, which reached #1 in Canada. The album reached #8 in the USA. In Canada, it went 3x platinum and sold 350,000 copies. Over one million copies were sold in North America.
Strange Animal - Gowan (1985): The second studio album from Lawrence Gowan, it featured his breakthrough hits "(You're a) Strange Animal" and "A Criminal Mind". It won two Junos (out of seven nominations) and reached #5 in Canada.
Always Gowan!
I saw him open for the newly Roger Hodgson-less Supertramp on the tour for this album and he was better than the headliner! Fun record
Sorry, Bob and Doug, but gotta go with Gowan on this one.
10 bucks is 10 bucks, eh?
