I always liked Gowan.  How about Gordon Lightfoot?  Two of my favorites:

The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald

If You Could Read My Mind

Been awhile (again) so here I go - again.  Was driving around town and heard a band ont he radio I hadn't really heard from since the late 80's - kind of a one album wonder it seemed.  Perhaps it's just that they were from La Belle Provence that they didn't take off much or what - who knows.  Anyway, who remembers The Box (and before you say anything, get your minds out of my gutter  >).

Closer Together - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cp8QP8jzzGQ

Ordinary People - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-ciQYLtlpnw&feature=related

L'Affaire Dumoutier - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dwAWHOnrKjo&feature=related

My Dreams of You - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dwAWHOnrKjo&feature=related

That should be a good start.

Enjoy.

Been awhile since I've been in here - sitting at home suffering with a nasty cold, and found this song of a late 90's band from London, ON.  I looked it up on youtube since I'd been hearing it on the radio alot lately but no mention of who or what, so here is "Downtime" by the Gandharvas.

Stompin' Tom is the real deal. I regret that I didn't see him perform at the Horseshoe.

So was Guy Lombardo: ( probably my favorite song ).

A little different flavour than earlier posts, but our hip-hop scene is alive and well. From the east:

Classified - Oh Canada
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4SmSqaKsW98&feature=fvw

From the West:
Sweatshop Union - Try
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FGwqxVv-jJs

Can't forget our Jazz artists:
Diana Krall - Cry me a river
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F9y1vGxPVAA&feature=fvw

As for rock, I love the Hip.
Courage

I saw this one done up as a tribute to Greg Moore at the Vancouver Indy the year after he was killed, and it damn near brought tears to my eyes.

This one got me hooked on them for good.

Decided to resuscitate this thread...I saw these guys open up for The Trews in Winnipeg earlier this year and actually really enjoyed their stuff.  They're a band from Kingston called The Glorious Sons.
