#tbt Here's a rare gem-a radio interview I did in 1978 with CHUM FM's Larry Wilson just after the release of the Glider. In it, we discuss the overall concept behind the album as well the themes of many of the individual tracks on the album. Larry actually played a few of these tunes during the interview, but these have been abridged for purposes of this YouTube version. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T3_lOxlUnQ4

#tbt In case you didn’t get through the whole half-hour video we posted last week of the 1988 In Session show with Rik Emmett, here’s the version of Right Before Your Eyes we performed on the show with Lou Pomanti joining us on keys:

#tbt Here’s a rare find, folks-the full episode of In Session that I did in late ‘88 on CHCH TV with the uber-talented Rick Emmett of Triumph fame. Rik remains a dear friend to this day and we had a blast doing this show. The great Lou Pomanti also joins us on keys. Special thanks to supersleuth Darren M. for unearthing this gem:
