I'm from Halifax, Nova Scotia. I've seen April Wine six or seven times now and they've been extraordinary every time. I've had the pleasure to meet each member of the band on several occasions and I can tell you that they are as awesome in person as they are on stage. Myles Goodwyn was a sweetheart through and through. We'll miss him dearly.

In my mind, I'm a 14 year old kid who can easily bring to mind watching April Wine on Don Kirshner's Rock Concert playing Roller and Sign of the Gypsy Queen with interviews of Myles and the band mixed in.

I was lucky enough to grow up near the Canadian border. So you would get a lot of Canadian radio stations. Q107, 977 hits fm, CFNY. A lot of great Canadian bands we would hear, where the more south you go the less you’d hear. This song reminds me of our youth, going to the mall, cruising or sitting at a park late at night with all our friends. This was a break up or love tune for the one you thought was going to last, when it usually ended in heartbreak.

On the first day of MTV, April Wine was one of only three groups (along with The Who and Phil Collins) to have five airplays of a single song (Just Between You and Me). For total airplays the day was owned by Rod Stewart and REO Speedwagon. April Wine was still impressive in the list of total airplays for the opening day with the addition of Sign of The Gypsy Queen being played twice. So for total airplays we have: Rod Stewart 16, REO Speedwagon 15, The Pretenders 11, The Who 9, April Wine 7, Split Enz 7. Still a good showing by AW.

It's been very refreshing to see a lot of the younger generation hearing for the first time what I've been listening to my entire life.... and yes I know many have heard this before but I truly feel that April Wine has to be one of the most underrated bands in any era. From their debut album in 1971 to their 16th studio album in 2006 they have produced an unbelievable amount of amazing music including 34 singles. For those who are not that familiar with April Wine its the hidden gems that were never released as singles that make this group so good. Their third & fourth albums "Electric Jewels & Stand Back" are simply must have's that are full of great songs after great songs. Outside of the title hit & " Like a Lover like a song" the Whole World's goin crazy album has songs such as "Wings of Love, Shot down, Gimme love that are incredible as well. From 1978 - 1981 AW released 3 killer albums, First Glance, Harder Faster & The Nature of the Beast which if I was stranded on a beach would definitely be in my library. Along with the many singles there are so many songs on those albums that could of & should have been hits as well. Even some of their latest studio releases such as "Attitude" are kicking. For me, Myles Goodwyn was without a doubt the most influential music artist in my life (just ask my wife). He not only had one of the most recognizable & distinct voices in music but also had to be one of the best song writers in the industry. I appreciate you guys coming to realize the same, and yes....Wonderful reaction!

Watching and listening to Miles lead their incredibly arranged triple-guitar explosion was truly exciting to say the least. Miles had such a beautiful voice as well, showcased so sweetly here on this classic ballad. Rest-in-Peace. Miles...we love you.

My #1 favorite video by you guys. ❤ I KNEW y'all would LOVE THIS!!!! ❤ Imagine 56-year-old me back when I first heard this song in late 1981 when I was just 14 years old. Just like with you guys it completely blew me away. It was love at first listen. It didn't take me long after that to become a big April Wine fan. They are the #1 most underrated Rock band of all time. They only sold 10 million copies combined of their 20 albums, 16 of which were original studio albums. This was a band who should have sold at least 50 million. They were one of the top bands in Canada, but unfortunately only barely made a dent in the US market a few times and that was it. What an absolute shame, but we will always have their music forever. ❤
