Two of my favourite Toronto acts. Carlos Del Junco, twice named Hohner world Champion in both the Blues and Jazz Categories. Carlos used to have Kevin Breitt in his band, one of the most innovative guitarists I've ever heard. They still play together from time to time. If you get a chance to see Carlos, go. Especially if Kevin is guesting with him.

The other is Toronto Mainstay Paul James. Paul's show with his band is always energetic and entertaining, but his solo acoustic is remarkable. He covers Robert Johnson, Muddy, Dylan, Bo Diddley etc very well as well as doing a lot of his own material that is deeply rooted in blues. Paul has played with Bob Dylan on several occasions.

'Spaw, I've always said that there's no accounting for taste or lack thereof, but I didn't mind Iron City and I like the Green Death, Rolling Rock. Bud on the other hand... Any Chance of Blueclickythinging the above two sites for me?

I don't think I saw The Guess Who mentioned. In the early seventies they were the best selling band in the world for a while.

I'm a big fan of Tim Horton's Coffee. I like my coffee strong and I usually find the coffee in the U.S. brewed too weak for my taste. But it seems that that's the way you guys like it. Perhaps we need stronger coffee to recover from our stronger beer.

I'm surprised by how many fellow Canucks don't know who Tim Horton was, they only know his name from the Donut shops. Tim was probably the finest Defenceman in the N.H.L in the sixties right up until a certain Robert Gordon Orr burst upon the scene. He was a mainstay on the Sixties Toronto Maple Leaf dynasty, the last Toronto team to win the Stanley Cup. Of course, this year's team will be the next Toronto team to win it.

Oh yeah and speaking of the sixties Leafs, how about Johhny Bower and "Honky the Christmas Goose" or "Clear the Track, Here comes Shack"
