I only recently learned that Earl Seymour passed away. It made me sad & made me think of the time they band came to Vancouver and I was looking for songs to record and had arranged to pick up a demo. To pass the time until their show, I sat in the hotel room reading and talking Earl's ear off. And sometimes I wonder if I had any brains when I was young--er. I would NEVER go into a man's hotel room if I didn't know him now! But he was extremely funny and politely put up with me, lol.
@MrDietzkroll You think you've got it bad. I'm still listening to a cassette I made from the video when it was played on MuchMusic. I can vaguely remember for this video.
what happened to the video? I was in the video. It was a 2 day shoot at the old Massey Ferguson building on King St East. The lead singer had an ego; the rest of the band was kewl. I was one of the guys dressed in white.
Yup different band, in fact there was also a third band The Arrows from the UK back in the 70's who were best known as the writers of "I love Rock and Roll" later made famous by Joan Jett. These guys were all prominent studio musicians from the Toronto area, the most famous of which were Earl Seymour and Singer Dean McTaggart who became a world renown song writer for his work with David Tyson on such hits as "Dark Horse" and "Birmingham" for Amanda Marshall.

Is this the same "Arrows" as in Davie Allan and the Arrows?
They sho nuff sound DIFFERENT, to my ears. Maybe they are a band from outside the USA and thus allowed to use that name legally.

Not it is not the same as "Arrows" as in Davie Allan and the Arrows...They are a new wave group from Toronto, Ontario.

Thanks for the explanation. I remember this song from this Canadian Arrows group. It is a good one. Nice modern sound.
