Following on from the Classic American Rock polls, Here We Are in the Years of Classic Canadian Rock, and my vote goes to Neil Young for this first poll in the series. Thumbs Up

The Lady of the Canyon makes a late entry into the poll for any Joni Mitchell fans out there. Heart

I’m pleasantly surprised by the selection here. Clearly classic Canadian rock is more pleasant and enjoyable to my ears than classic US rock, if I’m to go by the polls from Paul.

There was usually only one contender (if that) per poll, for me, when it came to the US selections. Here I actually had to think about it…..for a nano-second. Neil Young’s debut is one of my favourites from his large and varied discography. He put out some duds, but this wasn’t one of them.

Only a small group of these fellow Canucks first albums are their best. But for my money Steppenwolf - Steppenwolf 1968 is a great first LP with three very strong hits and an iconic anthem in Born To Be Wild. Hard to beat in my eyes.

Hi,

CANO

  • 1976 -  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tous_dans_lm%C3%AAme_b%C3%A2teau" rel="nofollow - Tous dans l'même bâteau
  • 1977 -  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Au_nord_de_notre_vie" rel="nofollow - Au nord de notre vie

They were progressive and good. A lot of those listed were not progressive or that interesting to me.

Joni and Neil might be the ones that are worthy of the mention, and they both deserve a bit of the progressive something for their work, but many of the others were not that great for my ears. I still have STEPPENWOLF's first 2 albums, but I'm not sure they are progressive. BTO is definitely not progressive. And the GUESS WHO is not worth of any mentions specially given some really poor and bad history about what they did to The Strawbs on a couple of tours. That alone is shameful and bad!

almost impossible to play because too many to choose from : Black Noise, Harmonium, 3:47 EST, Meanwhile Back In Paris, Pat Travers, Triumph, Chilliwack (though I prefer The Collectors), etc...

The poll is in the general music section so you're picking on the OP for no reason. He did nothing wrong. 

Don't be so patronizing all the time, sorry to tell you...

From this list, I went with FM. Rush would be a close second.

Max Webster's debut was pretty good too. (not in this list)

There are some good ones here, from a classic rock perspective......Triumph, April Wine, BTO are very good. But Rush debut has that hard rocking, metalish vibe and you can't go wrong with Working Man.

Even though I briefly hesitated when I saw FM's Black Noise, I must go with Saga's debut album. Although the late-1970s synths sound very primitive today, this album remains a flawless masterpiece from first note to last. And yes, I will take yet another opportunity to mention Ian Crichton's awe-inspiring guitar solo on "Tired World (Chapter Six)"!

Saga takes this one. There's no other synth-intensive vocal album that year (1978) that's as good.

A belated (3 years late?) celebration of Canada Day and with Saga currently leading the poll by just one vote, will another band Rush in to steal their Canadian crown? Smile



Unusually for me, I only used 23 of the 25 available poll slots, which means I can include Max Webster in the next poll. Wink

but it's missing a few:

The Collectors' debut
Opus-5
Maneige

I am Canadian, and this poll's entries are very well known by me. Excellent selection. I picked Rush. There is one missing which I wanted to mention, and that is the self titled debut album by The Hunt (1977) It is not that great of a debut, but the band's third album is fantastic....called The Thrill Of The Kill from 1982....

Thanks Doug. I've just hunted out that band out and added their debut album to the above list. By the way, I like The Hunt's debut much more than Rush's first album. Thumbs Up

It's probably gonna be Joni every time for me. 

-in the mid-seventies she might have recorded a song or two that borders on soft rock, but classic rock she ain't (and thank god for that).

I know, but Joni is just too good to leave out of the poll. Smile

Unless I'm mistaken, this is the first time EVER Saga has won a poll!

As a huge fan of their debut album, all I can say is, "IT'S ABOUT TIME!!!"

Yes, it's the only Canadian poll where Saga picked up more votes than Joni Mitchell and Neil Young combined. Geek
