Canadian rock and roll


Got quite a few cool recommendations from the recent Australian rock and roll post. Now I think it would be interesting to search north of the U.S. border into Canada for rock and roll enlightenment. What are your favorite Canadian acts? Obviously Rush has a huge presence. For many years I have enjoyed Bruce Cockburn, Harry Manx, Blue Rodeo, and probably my favorite- The Tragically Hip. I think that the Hip are criminally under appreciated. Let's sip on a cold Moosehead and explore the great white north!

If I could have only 100 albums, two of them would be the first two Band albums. If I could have only 10 albums, two of them would be the first two Band albums. If I could have only 2 albums, they would be the first two Band albums.

If I'm buried in a coffin, I want those two albums buried with me. If I'm cremated, I want those two albums burned up along with the body. I want to be able to hear those two albums for all of eternity. They say "You can't take it with you". If that's true, I don't wanna go.
