Subject: RE: Toronto 60s music scene: were you there?
Ahhh...the sixties. I grew up in Beaverton and when to Cannington High School. We had The Pav in Orillia, The Embassy in Lindsay, The White House in Port Bolster, The Commodore in the country, The Key in Bala, ands and so many more places that have been lost from my memory. It was The Mandala, The Stitch in Tyme, The British Modbeats, The Tryke, The Sciatic Set (The Jennifer), and then The Scugog River Bottom Band, The Status-Steel Blues Band, Ronnie Lane and The Diciples w/ Wicked Willie on sax & keyboards, Grant SMith and the Power, The Witness w/ Kenny Shields, The New Lighthouse (formerly the Paupers), DCT & The Bossmen, The Innocence of Virgil Scott, The BTB4, The Ugly Ducklings ... and so many more. I collect Canadian pop/rock music since the early 70's. And because of all the music I now produce a program called Folk Routes for the CKUA Radio Network ... a wonderful misspent youth.
