When I was a child we had the album Fludd 'On' in our household collection. I just downloaded this album again because I lost the album in a flood, of all things, some years ago. In my opinion, this has got to be one of the top ten albums in Canadian rock of all time. Why, don't they get more air play? "c;mon c'mon" ""down! down! down!" "home-made lady" "ticket to nowhere" all classic unheard gems of rock&roll.
I was at a 45 and over party this past weekend and I was overwhelmed with memories as I watched everyone with their hands up in the air singing along to this around the bonfire. Classic Canadian!!!
the voice is pretty true to the original recording one of those songs that touch's you
here it's been up dated slightly, stampeders sweet city woman being better well thats a personal view how you hear the songs original cuts or on youtube here i like them both they were the early offerings i believe for future canadian song writers story telling songs of the 70's to follow and in the end enjoy.
I was part of that show in 2004 which is now five years ago and Rick Lamb was one of the most liked musciansd in Toronto. I'm somwhere on youtube if you see the footage of me wearing a shiney Blue shirt Look for Max Brand
@mbrand19971 Rick was my neighbor for the last years until his passing, and was one of the kindest most likeable people I have ever met. I've known his wife Anna since we were kids.
@Peak2Creek1 I never got to meet Rick very much but from what I had heard from folks that knew him he had a lot of great friends. He is missed by everyone that knew him. Hope we meet up at some point..
I heard this song on am radio in a 64 Belvedere when I was a boy and did not know til now Greg godovitz was with them. I was only surfing for a teenage fave band Goddo, what a pleasant surprise............
I have to agree with fensterchien - great song, great band but the harmonies were completely off key. Sounds like someone pulled the plug out of the turntable and it started to slow down. I know you can do much better. RIP Brian.
sorry boys, even though i loved the original song ( and i've seen you do it live many times back in the day) . that was fucking awful. the harmony was a train wreck. and the harmony is fairly simple.....as long as you can sing on key.
You are 56 and use language like that on here? thought at first you were 15. I'm sure if you were a singer you'd sound exactly the same as you did in your 20s and in a studio. Very few band sound the same live as on the record. Are you that bloody stupid not to know that?
Back in the 60's these guys used to practise in one of their parents basements in Scarborough Ontario they also had an old school bus to transport the band, they sounded good even then
two of the members lived at 123 Bellamy on the 4th floor, I was 11 years old and their younger brother Keith was a big crush I had. They would also practice downstairs in the Apt complex. Big rush for a little kid of 11 years old.
The band Saga was formed with members of Fludd? cool. Saga, what a band that was, keyboards, b3's,clavanets, moogs you gota love it. Long live Candian Rock!!!
Thanks for the reply. "Get Up" is a great song. On the Warner Brothers label. at the time, i lived in the Detroit area. I guess I was lucky to even have heard it, let alone have bought the single for 69 cents.

@toDan421 I went to school with Greg in Scarborough back in late 60's. Fludd practiced across the street from the school. I used to watch Fludd and Godo at the Knob Hill all the time!! Ahh, the old days.
