Rik Emmitt's vocals and guitar are absolutely stunning! I was fortunate to see them several times and he sings just as good if not better live.

[@pacard33]

One time Steve Perry was backstage with Emmitt and Steve praised him for the vocal high note in Magic Power and said "how do you get that high note, anyway?". Rik's eyes bugged out and said, "You're asking ME about hitting high notes?" Great stuff. Rik is still considered to be one of the greatest guitarists and performers to ever live.

[@christopherbailey557]

Absolutely!

[@RandyPeterson]

The best light show on Earth!

[@brianwilson9206]

I saw them in SA Tx with Molly Hatchet they both killed it

[@playbassken]

@Kevin Croucher you lucky dog!

[@jamesedmonds2833]

Rick Emmett is one of the most underrated guitarists in Rock n Roll

[@jasonmichaels5796]

And vocalists!! I agree 💯

[@SeeJayPlayGames]

The bouncing pentatonic triplet run at the end of the solo sounds very similar to a run in the solo for "Jump in the Fire" by Metallica. If I didn't know better, I'd say Mr. Hammett ripped off Mr. Emmett but since it's just such a shred cliche', can anyone really claim ownership to it?

[@89801wink]

Good lord yes!

[@nypitbull1dogbreath595]

They killed it at the US Festival live 1983 over bands like Van Halen shocked the crap out us and their fellow performers,so underrated its ridiculous.

[@s.mcpherson6354]

Super talented musicians dedicated to positive songs. Hard to go wrong.

[@williamswiniuch7527]

Great summation

[@gridlock1a]

Good song but I can't support a blind dedication to positivity....that's just stupid

[@s.mcpherson6354]

@@gridlock1a To you maybe. But who said 'blind?' Successful people often focus on the positive because it is excellent motivation and it's just as factual as a negative views of things. That does not mean that people are incapable of recognizing the negative. It simply isn't helpful or constructive to spend much time on it. Better to just accept the negative and look for whatever positive keeps us enthusiastic. Life is sometimes very hard. Positivity is like a life-raft for the tough times. For Emmett, I believe the value of positivity was instilled by an aunt battling with cancer.

[@doubledeerussell4005]

We need more of this music today.

[@gridlock1a]

Triumph "Never Surrender" is another good one.

[@Kid-8888]

Yes, Yes, Yes!

[@MichaelMartin-eh6wl]

Never Surrender was a good album, but my go to is still Thunder Seven. For such a late album in the band's trajectory, there are plenty of gems on that one.

[@babayaga5392]

Another great Canadian trio rock band.

[@cletushouse906]

These guys were great live. BLINDING LIGHT SHOW was a good one. They could really rock.

[@redstate502]

Definitely my favorite. Awesome in Concert! The first time I saw them they hit us with the weirdest lighting I have ever seen. It was green and it flowed over the crowd like paint, it slowly engulfed the entire venue. When it finally covered our section all I could see was the color green, I couldn't see my hand in front of my face. When it was over, all the way out to the car, everything had a green tint to it. 😆

[@gailvmeadus9726]

Great Canadian trio! Magic power and Follow your heart are another couple of my favorites...❤ from 🇨🇦

[@odochartaighofodonegal9815]

Another great 3-piece Canadian band- happy you've discovered them.

[@edwardwilliams8238]

Never understood how these power trios get so much into their sound. Genius! This is a great song, thanks for the recommendation 🙂✌️

[@brianforgie7724]

Its like they are 3 soloists. Basic hard riff and structure and one guy is always background soloing over the top. Bass is doing more than he should, then drummer. Stacked kind of effect.

[@jeannieschmidt2217]

Thank you for checking out another Canadian Masterpiece. Rik Emmet's voice is INSANELY good - as is his guitar playing.

[@tonyhurlbut7754]

Excellent band! Their songs are positive and have meaning, unlike most songs you hear anymore!

[@pacard33]

One of my favorite Triumph songs is "Never Say Never". Has some of the sharpest, distorted riffs in all of hard rock.

[@koolkitties8552]

what album is that on?

[@pacard33]

@@koolkitties8552 It's on the "Surveillance" album. You need to hear the cool "Prologue" right before "Never Say Never" -- has such an amazing build to it then kills it with that intro riff. Brilliant hard rock.

[@reedwilson64GTO]

It's just so legit. Will always be a song I love. Their going to be pissed at the old folks home when I crank this one up.

[@slainteron4027]

Spell Bound and Time Goes By are great tunes from their Thunder Seven album. Time Goes By showing how good Rik is picking and finger fretting the same notes in the solo

Love Triumph… I think the best song is one most Triumph fans won’t call out. However, “Stranger In A Strange Land” from the Thunder Seven album, in my opinion, is the best total composition of instrumentation, lyrics, and musicianship. It is brilliant, in its subject matter, and groove. And Rik Emmitt’s guitar playing is next level…

[@qhl5579]

Agreed, one of my all time favs!!

[@somersetcace1]

When I was a kid, some of my friends/class mates thought Triumph was a pop version of Rush and I almost got into fist fights over it. lol No, no they're not. They're Triumph and they rock. No disrespect to Rush who I also love, but no, this band was their own thing and they were awesome.

[@toddstevens13]

Different styles, different stage shows, Triumph did have more Pop songs then Rush, but they could also Rock the hell, while Rush was more Proggy. Slightly different fan bases, but also a group of us in the middle who appreciated both. You hardly ever saw a Jock or Cheerleader type at a RUSH concert, and neery a misfit or outcast showed up at a Triumph concert. Triumph loved blowing things up on stage, RUSH not so much. Both had Incredible Lead Guitarists, and both Geddy and Rik could reach incredible high notes. The only sad thing was that they never ever did a concert together, perhaps they were at festivals the same year, but just once I would of loved to have them sell out Skydome and let 80,000 of us Rock the Evening away., Hell they could of made it a 3 Man Canadian Rock Group day and night by bringing along FM , Klaatu, The Stampeders and Frank Marino and Mahogany Rush as well.

[@RaymondBCrisp]

I always thought they were just more hard rock than Rush. I don't think they really ever delved into what I would consider true 'pop' music. For that you've got to look Wham or Air Supply or Phil Collins solo or Steve Perry solo or whatnot. But I have a different definition of pop, so maybe it's just me. And they even had a few proggy songs, with Blinding Light Show being the most notable.

[@toddstevens13]

@@RaymondBCrisp I would call those bands you mentioned as Saccharine Ballad bands. So guess it is all in the degree. Power pop maybe, is how I would categorize Triumph, but indeed Triumph had some Hard Rock, Like Rock and Roll Machine, and perhaps their hardest "When The Lights Go Down."

[@RaymondBCrisp]

@@toddstevens13 Fight the Good Fight, Blinding Light Show, and Hold On are pretty rockin'. I won't deny they were definitely in the 'mainstream' rock category, meaning they got a lot of air play, but Magic Power is the only poppy (poppish?) rock song by them that I can think of.

[@toddstevens13]

@@RaymondBCrisp We just have different ideas about what Pop Rock is. Hold On to me is complete pop rock, as are Never Surrender, Magic Power for sure, Somebody's Out There. Sure there is some guitar on them, but they are to me like all the other hair band era pop rock. We shall agree to disagree, but we both enjoyed them, as part of the incredible Canadian Music of those times.
