found 5 Grapes of Wrath concert shirts :) must have seen them over 20 times when I was going to university :)

[stephymay74]

you guys were one of my favorite band in the late 80's and the 90's

OMG where have you gone?

[mkyriak]

Toronto loves this group from Vancouver. 80s never die!!!

[TheEhce]

Incredible fucking song

[MacflyinHigh420]

i found this song surprisingly late, and im pretty sure half the views are from me hahaha so good

[savantiflag]

@MacflyinHigh420 You and me both!!

[audiokitty]

This makes me feel like I should be flipping through cassettes at Sam the Record Man on a family trip into Toronto in the dead of winter.

[shmuli9]

@audiokitty Wow - I haven't thought about "Sam the Record Man", or "Cheapies" or "A&A Records" (which I thought was extremely overpriced) in ages. In Vancouver, there wasn't "Cheapies", but on 'record row' (Seymour Street), there was "A&B Records", which used to have REALLY good sales...

[DustOnTheRoad]

89X

[TheEhce]

This may just be the greatest Canadian retro-rock song of all time

[TheEhce]

extremly under rated

[TheEhce]

so don`t call back

[bcasey25raptor]

this band is from my home town of kelowna. in fact i am only 18 and i still live there.

[dbengert]

@bcasey25raptor kelowna is a great place to be

[snowy032]

Fantastic Canadian band!

[nibsasstaz]

yeah right was in response to "virtualpopster"- doesn't your name say it all?- fuckin wannabe! These guys are my cousins, and Tom says "who the fuck?...

[virtualpopstar]

Ash Alexander.

[virtualpopstar]

Check the album credits nissasstaz. x

[ashleedawniebird]

lol!

[virtualpopstar]

It's true.

[virtualpopstar]

Check the album credits nibsasstaz.

I can hear you singing 'You may be right...' x

[virtualpopstar]

nibsasstaz has left the building!

[virtualpopstar]

For what it's worth:

Thanks for your enlightening response. It smacks of ignorance. You'll find your research has let you down. This was a general comment made about the 5 years I worked at Abbey Road, including the sessions on this album.

Your apology for being rude, ignorant and a little hasty in your response is accepted.

I hope the Chinook winds thaw your cold veneer. I bet you're ok underneath it all. x

Regards, Ash (aka 'fuckin wannabe) - as we all are in one way or another.

Peace. x

[danchannell]

sure can tell when the record company got a hold of there influence on this album, earlier stuff was far less engineered!!

[virtualpopstar]

I assisted John Leckie on the mix of this at Abbey Road. Happy days and great memories.

[nibsasstaz]

yeah, right

[saucierrr]

My coworker back in the day opened up for these guys in the 90's and I got to go backstage. The one guitarist....not kevin...but the other one fed me grapes as I lay on his lap~

[wellyes]

@saucierrr

that sounds soooooooooooooo much like what a bunch of 90's Canadian shoe gazing rock stars would do. :) No coke, no whores, just an innocuous feeding session back stage.

Personally I loved this melancholic album in the 90s, but when i dated a girl that had the same love for it, it eventually destroyed me.

[MisterEvasion]

These songs could easily be mistaken as being recent releases. I think there is a true talent with the Grapes of Wrath that was understated when they arrived on the scene around the early 90s. Furthermore, they were a class act and if you listen to their albums, you have to search hard for even one banal track.

[Toph7444]

WICKED. These guys were the BEST. I spent my LIFE savings on a Rickenbacker 360 after watching this video.. In fact that's probably why I couldn't afford University, and I'm a better man for it.

[sineric18]

Even though I support you buying a ricky(awesome guitars) IDIOT lol

[otishaywater]

@Toph7444 thats awsome!

[ldhorricks]

@Toph7444 Rickenbackers do that to some of us....

[fenderrlee]

@Toph7444 u r awesome

[Danimal14222]

One of the things I loved about growing up in Buffalo was being able to hear and see the best Canada had to offer-- and that included these guys.:>).

[nibsasstaz]

God, I LOVE THIS SONG. I always did. SO sexy, good romp song- (T. Hooper you are HOT call me) Added it to my favorites about a year ago and just tonight opened an account so I can comment- anyone want to correspond? I'm a nubie and not sure how to go about it, maybe someone could help, but I'd love to talk music with anyone, male or female- I'm PARTICULARLY fond of OASIS. .

[mimickick]

Oh my god yes. These guys were so good. I was too young to appreciate them back in their prime. Thank god for stumbling back over things you haven't heard in a million years.

[davidjtaylormusic]

God I love this song --- miss grapes,

djt

[daTerminehtor]

bomb track.

[mosesposes]

sooooooooooooooooooo gay........... like elton john waterfall popped bicycle tire can of soda in the rain.

[stigfink]

Damn, I miss this band.

[snakecraig74]

I saw these guys live in Oakville back in the summer of 1992 I believe... they were very tight (meaning that they played well). It was not long after that they had split up...

[tommyrock69]

The Big Star of the 1990s.

"Now and Again" is a masterpiece.

[sarastar75]

I totally agree. That album changed me!

[Mikey656]

Saw them back in '01 at the Marque in Halifax, I believe it was a reunion tour. They were awesome! Really good live!!

[bryanedwardlewis]

Hey all I saw them in Grade nine They came to WCI 1991 in Woodstock ON. !!

[mesmeridium]

The Grapes of Wrath were outstanding. This song is around 20 years old and sounds just as current as some the top Indie bands today. I like Beatlesque groups and the GOW are among the best.

Compare Klaatu and Dukes of Stratosphear

[01mkultra]

The lost George Harrison single that never made it on the White Album....

[CrociatoAzzurro]

very Beatles-sounding

Damn, good memories of this album.

[Axlegun]

Holy shit I haven't heard this song since I was about 13. Awesome song

[Scotth24]

These guys, and this album in particular, got me through a really tough time. Just found it randomly and bought it without listening. Just seem to call to me...

[hockeyteeth]

hell yeah, forgot about these dudes. cool shit

[Maxmulham]

10,000 views?!? My shitty little video has more views than these guys. These guys are soo awesome though. Did they ever breakthrough to the US?

[shaughnessy24]

Probably in the top 3 world's most underated music group, timeless stuff for sure. Saw them in a windstorm at UVIC in September 1992, still performed awesomely. A real treat!

[makinawdandy6699]

I agree. Very underrated.

[Maxmulham]

As much as I like the Grapes of Wrath. There's alot more good underated bands found here in Canada than you think. I really don't wanna list all of them.

[spottedliver]

I think it was recorded at Abbey Road, Could be wrong.

[jts001]

It was recorded in Vancouver but mixed at Abbey Road. John Leckie produced and/or engineered it (can't remember exactly). Great sounding album.

[mitchell1919]

i got this cd pretty hard to find now bought it a flea market its awesome their acoustic and piano music are pretty insane I couldnt any guitar pro tabs of them someone help me

[asiansual]

This tune sounds slightly Beatles-ish, and that's why I love it. They were such a talented band. Too bad they were underrated.

[jamesbondaygee]

Totally awesome song!! totally under appreciated!!!

[oneslickjackrabbit]

Absolutely the most under-appreciated bands of the 80's, perhaps of all time. Artists just don't make this type of music anymore, and it's a crying shame.

[gingerb77]

great CANADIAN band!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[corriganya]

Tom Hooper is amazing!

[micr0cosm]

I am willing to bet Tom Hooper has a big hoop too;)

[wellyes]

Are you saying you want to him drop soap in the shower?

[VexMeSo]

yay
