One gut-punchin’ badass mutherfuckin bad and you would have had to see this lineup to understand what I’m saying and THE LORD GOD ALMIGHTY blessed me to have the opportunity four times!

[@janetlynnmuxlow]

RIP Myles Goodwyn Thanks for all your outstanding music !! It will forever, rock on ❤️💔🙏

[@jeremy0330]

THIS is rock and roll...the epitome of classic rock....

[@LyleSpurgeon]

One of the all time greats.

[@TheHumbuckerboy]

April Wine really had that classic, warm rock sound combined with melody , excellent musicianship and great live performance nailed when they were at their best !

[@sickb2200]

I listened to April Wine about as much as any other great band as teenager in the 80's. Goodwin is as much of a guitar god as any if you as me.

[@jwingnut1]

Nature of the Beast was the first album that I purchased on my own. Great, great song and album.

[@angelaguerry3627]

APRIL WINE ROCKS!!!

[@dragonsfire6664]

This song was the Hidden Gem on this Kick ass Album!!!

[@gordonswinnerton1896]

April Wine is one of the best Canuck bands

[@ronditchen6664]

When it comes a great rock and roll late seventies early eighties didn't get too much better than April Wine I'll be dammed why they're not jn The rock and roll Hall of fame..🎸🥁🎤🤘🇨🇦

[@bryanauger4169]

Nature Of The Beast!

[@ChrisReinheimer]

Just like every time I've seen them ...since holy shit 1978.... absolutely nails. Thanks for posting this

[@davelabadie147]

I love April Wine!! Underrated their shows were a big party for me and my friends!! Nature of the beast album is my favorite!! I played it over and over!! I must put it in my car today, now!!

[@nitemoves1]

Yet another example of how much Myles and the boys totally kickass! I've seen April Wine 27 times and they have never let me down. This is one of the few bands I can listen to where you just put the album on and let the entire things play. I play in a cover band and we always cover a couple of tunes from them wherever we play. From the first time I heard April Wine on Harder... Faster...in my friends car I have been jamming them loudly. They did a simulcast show of the Nature of the Beast where they broadcast live on both T.V. and radio and I have listened to it for 30 some years and I've never tired of it. I'm babbling now so I have to split but April Wine rocks like a fine wine and gets better for me as time passes. Thanks ....peace/out

[@robertproctor7771]

*This is my favorite April Wine song! Thank You for this killer live version! ♥*

[@soulbrother6895]

amazing, out of sight ! I bet stupid rolling stone doesn't even list the incredible songwriter, composer, lead singer and awesome guitarist in the top 50 greatest rockers of all time , which he should be listed n

[@jimsteele2072]

Hell yeah!

[@tutankraider3502]

one of the best bands, ever

[@ronditchen6664]

I seen April Wine On their nature of the beast tour Great band great sound great performance Love April Wine

[@chrisreinheimer911]

this is a great version of this

[@lestudiomorin-heights9141]

Love that song Classic APRIL WINE

[@charliejg]

Great rock and roll. Jerry Mercer is a seriously under rated drummer and the entire band gets too little recognition as a great rock band.

[@TheHumbuckerboy]

Total agreement from me !

[@Stewieboy1995]

They write such great songs, well Myles. The whole band are such amazing musicians. Criminally underrated band in anywhere other than Canada. USA should have given these guys more of a shot. I mean alot of rocker fans in USA know all about April Wine's music and actually gave it a shot

[@Ionizap]

@@Stewieboy1995 I still don't quite understand why April Wine didn't make it on the world stage like Rush. Same thing for Triumph. I still listen to them 30 years later on a regular basis. Grew up with it and love it.

[@hobbsmack]

A lot of talent...songwriting, awesome drummer, 3 guitars, everyone could basically write, sing, and play guitar(or drums) at any time...when Brian Greenway came on board they really kicked some ass...then came "harder faster" and "nature of the beast"....they had a lot of member changes outside of myles, he was there almost from the beginning and the genius behind the writing mostly as far as I understand but something magical happened when Jesse and Brian came into the mix...not sure what Brian did writing wise but he was an unreal guitarist and vocalist...as you can clearly see when you watch the video for "before the dawn" where he's lead vocals and guitar...for there greatest song ever...imo.

[@j_freed]

Jerry retired really close to my home town near Kingston!

[@pamwelch7228]

Love it!

[@pauledmonds3249]

Wish i had been there , great gig.

[@artheriford]

Brian's background vocals really cut through the mix on this version. The band really got some balls when he joined. There were a few rockers like Shot Down and I Can You Hear You Callin Me", but until Brian joined they just didn't seem to know who they were. When "First Glace" came out and they did "Roller" and "Get Ready for Love", it was clear that they found the missing piece. Mr. Brian Greenway

[@j_freed]

The VFX in this video are great, kind of like The Darkness but without the irony.

[@1963RRT]

A song about a night in Edmonton.

[@FreeMTrider]

What group of young dudes didn't try to check out some hookers when in the big city? We did. and we didn't have money! Just like Myles said!

[@venturamichael50]

Lost of nice 70s era Les Pauls being played by the band.

[@mikebartlette7316]

there is not one band that tours,thats young and plays this kind of music.Where the fuck is the next gen players that take over for this kind of rock-n-roll.Can someone just stop the world,I want to get off right here.

[@AliG-xh1jm]

Mike...With ya Buddy! I'll have to stop and get some papers and a bottle of Jack first, but I'm there! LOL

[@venturamichael50]

April Wine was a great band,for some reason after Harder Faster and Nature of the Beast they lost something.

[@christinepeniaranda8484]

A girl's gotta eat! 😀

[@lonecrapshooter67]

Those girls are not hos, they are just out there going to store, waiting for bus, etc

[@rachelvautour2768]

Big time hard rock wtf

[@humanbeing2420]
