Paul McCartney - bass
George Harrison - twelve-string lead guitar
Ringo Starr - drums
Produced by George Martin, 1964
Recorded at Abby Road EMI Studio 2, London UK by Norman Smith, Feb 25, 1964
Considering that the Beatles were in New York to premier on the Ed Sullivan
Show and would remain there for three weeks, as soon as they returned to
the UK they were back in the recording studio making this song. I Should
Have Known Better languished for months before being considered for release
on the A Hard Day’s Night soundtrack in July 1964. In North America, the
song also had prominence as the flip side to the A Hard Day’s Night single
released on Capitol.

Michael Occhipinti’s covers of the songs of John Lennon on The Universe
of John Lennon. This particular track is totally amazing, considering that
it was the psychedelic conquering piece that ended Revolver. I never thought
it could be covered successfully by anyone else.

Paul Hann was an Edmonton television personality who had a special talent

Friends joined the CTV network schedule in September 1985. It played on CTV

Disaster Fantasies was rated as One of the 10 best albums of the year 2010

Waylon, The Outlaw, was like a revival to Jennings’ career. Whereas
his original 1960s releases were Nashville oriented, when he reinvented himself
as an outlaw – growing his hair long with a beard and just calling himself
Waylon – based out of Austin Texas. By this time Jerry Jeff Walker and Willie
Nelson were joining the ranks of the Outlaws, creating an entire new scene
for progressive country music before it became pop music with fiddles and
steel guitars. As early as the late 1960s, Waylon was recording rock songs
like Kentucky Woman in his own unique country style. He was always progressive.

The DC5 only played Toronto a couple of times, both in 1964. Other than
The Beatles, they were probably the biggest British Invasion draw that year.
They played at Varsity Arena in the University of Toronto in June and half-filled
Maple Leaf Gardens on the 2nd of November. They were incredibly popular on
this side of the ocean, and again, other than The Beatles and The Stones,
they probably had the biggest career in America of all the other first wave
British Invasion bands.
14. Jack London: To Know You Is To Love You
(Phil Spector)
Introducing….: Cynda Records – CNS 1061
Oshawa ON
Produced 1977
Toronto’s Jack London was into the pop music scene when The Beatles
first hit the scene. He changed from a Buddy Holly type by capitalizing on
the British Invasion. By 1965 he was having local success as leader of Jack
London and the Sparrows (who evolved into Steppenwolf). By the late ‘60s
his career was flailing and he moved into the country music orbit releasing
this one album on Stompin’ Tom’s Boot Records imprint, the budget label Cynda.
Very skimpy with the details on this album.

b. 8 January 1964, St. Catharines ON
Ron Sexsmith was a sleepy eyed, baby faced kid when I first met
him in 1988 just after he relocated to Toronto from his home town of St.
Catherines. He already had a bunch of terrific original songs in his repertoire
and was determined, against all odds, to become successful. It was CKLN Folk
show host Joel Wortzman who first turned me onto Ron’s music. Ron was the
first guest I ever had who sang and played some songs on my radio show back
in 1988. Ron has since gone on to international fame and continues to record
great albums, totally living up to great expectations.

called The Toronto Shotgun, Steel River decided to become full-time musicians
in 1969. They were signed to the Tuesday Record label and their first single
was the Jay Telfer (A Passing Fancy) song called "Ten Pound Note" which became
an international hit. They continued until 1974 at which time they called
it quits.

Recorded and Mixed at Toronto Sound
In the 1960s in Sarnia, the band went through names
such as the Grass Company, the Quotations, Big Al's Band, and ZOOOM. They
settled for "Max Webster" in 1973. This is from their first album, recorded
for Ray Daniel's Taurus Records in 1975 and re-released on his Anthem (Rush)
label in 1977. Mine is the original Taurus copy.
BTW Geddy Lee used to call himself The Nose when he was 14 and used to say:
“The Nose Knows”. That’s the way he signed my copy of Piper at the Gates
of Dawn which also has a reference to Alex Lifeson (as Živojinović) who,
according to a classmate named Sam, claims that Alex ‘Stinks’.

Taylor Josephine Stephanie Luciow
b. August 27, 1990, Toronto / d. October 27, 2009, Halifax NS
She was just 18! She had a new CD out and was being talked about
by the Skydiggers. I had her on the program on May 21, 2009 and she blew
me away the way she played. She was so young and lovely, so thoughtful the
way she put her songs together. Justin Rutledge, later described her as having
written beyond her years: "She didn’t provide answers, as so many of her
age try to do. She just asked great questions.”
She had great aspirations and arranged to tour the Maritimes in the fall
but suffered the most unusual fate of being attacked and killed by coyotes
as she hiked along the Cabot Trail in Cape Breton Highlands National Park.
I was in shock when I found out. It was even written about internationally
in Mojo Magazine. It was definitely my heaviest moment in radio! A few days
before her death, Taylor was nominated for a Canadian Folk Music Award as
Young Performer of the Year.

b. March 2, 1948, Ballyshannon IR / d. London UK, June 14, 1995 (47)
This was from Rory’s second solo album after the break-up of
Taste. In order to capture the feeling of a live performance that Gallagher
wanted, he would try and record immediately before or after live performances.
Didn’t matter anyway since Deuce didn’t sell very well.

Recorded in RCA's Studio C, New York City by Bob Simpson
Capitalizing on the Tijuana Brass craze, there were other bands of professionally
hired musicians like Living Marimbas who were marketed as a ‘band’. They
were hired to record sanitized (but good) pop hits with a marimba sound that
people like my parents liked to play at thematic Mexican sombrero parties.

Nobody I Know was a throw away song, written by Paul McCartney.
(He also supplied Peter and Gordon with ‘A World Without Love’ and ‘Woman’
which were big hits. P & G’s recording of Nobody I know sold over a million

Another brilliantly performed song with just a touch of attitude to
feel like you’re just meeting Murray out on the streets. Just some great
players behind him too! At that time, Murray was True North’s hit maker with
consistently solid releases throughout the seventies. Bruce Cockburn, the
first True North artist, didn’t have that kind of commercial success until
the late ‘70s with the release of Dancing In The Dragon’s Jaws.
