Kim Mitchell 1992 Intimate and Interactive Full show

[@Vipercussionist]

All due respect to Peter Fredette, but there is NOTHING lacking from anyone on this stage!! The total conviction this whole band played with on this show can't be faked, they kicked ass and took names!! And that BASS TONE!! HUGE!! Wish I'd seen this show when it was first posted, but glad I've seen it now in 2024!! Rock on!!

[@Darin.Pearson]

100% agree, and I want to emphasize your comment on the bass. Great playing and a wonderful tone.

[@steveo4253]

Peter Fredette in the line up way better backing vocals dude ! In fact he's a better singer than Kim !

[@pal4597]

Greg Critchley on drums!

[@guitarplayer5932]

no bass player on earth can touch peters vocals, especially not this one

[@robertmuckle2985]

​​@@guitarplayer5932 Haha...few SINGERS on earth can touch Peters vocals! This bassist ain't no slouch mind you👍

[@boykokutriansky1219]

I discovered him only couple days ago, and all I can say is that I wish there were more musicians like him. I love hs work!!!❤

[@robertmuckle2985]

Did Kim even glance at his fretboard once through this entire performance?? One of Canadas most talented by a long shot...and he's still killin it today!

[@ROOKTABULA]

He can rip but as I read your comment, he did many times. Lols

[@robertmuckle2985]

This band was so f'ing good here!!! Flawless playing of very complex arrangements, and actually enjoying each other on stage. You seldom get chemistry like this as egos just won't allow it. Kim seems a genuinely good human, and surrounds himself with other good humans. That's as rare as it gets!

[@geraldestabrooks8330]

I do believe I was watching this broadcast way back in the day. It sucked because I could not watch the entire show, because I had to leave with someone, and I did not have a vehicle. I caught maybe the first twenty minutes or so. Seeing the entire thing as it looked back when it first was on Much Music, was a great and satisfying watch. 30 years later, I finally get to see the whole show! I recently got back into Kim Mitchell's music so this was a treat. Thanks for putting this on YT!

[@canadianroot]

Kim should have been a much more widely recognized guitarist. It’s almost criminal. He’s a wizard.

[@elliotjordan2326]

Max Webster would have been huge. If Terry didn't go back to school and Kim didn't have family problems that band would be as big as acdc, or van Halen

[@canadianroot]

@@elliotjordan2326 I wasn't aware of the inside scoop, so thanks. I'm glad we have that body of music, but I think with tinkering, they could have been much better. Some of the lyrics were weak, and they kind of lacked an identity. When the songs were strong, they were in the stratosphere good. And Kim's solo stuff has plenty of gems. Glad he's stayed humble, and has brought his art to so many fans across so many venues, even small ones. I saw Max at my high school in 1974, and again backing up Rush in the late 70's.

[@elliotjordan2326]

@@canadianroot is it an inside scoop? Max Webster were on Top of The Pops in England.

[@canadianroot]

@@elliotjordan2326 Wow, that turned sour. You mentioned school and family problems that I wasn't aware of. And then you mentioned TotP for some reason.

[@bruehahaha]

always my favorite Canadian Guitarist....so tasty!

[@paulya1269]

Kim delivered the tunes! Great songwriter and guitarist.

[@anthonysilva5312]

I don’t give a shit what no one says....Aural Fixations fucking rocked. Kim Mitchell = national treasure

[@Zubado1]

Yes it was a great album.

[@jasonkennedy3517]

This and the Itch album got lost in the haze of grunge but they are great albums. Wish he would play songs from those albums in his live shows now.

[@trenthogan4212]

It's my favourite KM album, but he needed Peter Fredette here big time.

[@yardbirds8414]

Big Max Webster fan. Kim , super under appreciated for sure. I worked in the music scene in Toronto at this time , when there was a great music scene happening. Miss those times before the advent of , cell phones and 24/7 News/ Social Media. Human beings actually interacting and enjoying music together. What was different from today is that it was around all the time and in the air. Today you get the flavour of the moment blowing thru town to catch a pay check and then back to the silence.

[@dannybostock2157]

What a great show me and my buddy Luciano were in the audience 🎸

[@brianbondy5667]

This is what live music should be. The amount of fun this band is having during this set is so amazing to see.

[@elliotjordan2326]

There are still live bands like this in Toronto. Keep it alive and come out. The Horseshoe, Danforth Music Hall, El Macombo are all still open and have shows.

this is just awesome. thanks for sharing this. What a great era in Canadian music. Loved this album then and now and love seeing this band lineup too, awesome seeing hired guns walk up and just kill it. one of the many things I love about music!

[@tonyrobbins1665]

That strat looking guitar sounds awesome with those humbuckers in it.

look up kim mitchell blue guitar picks, its a video on his channel where he talks about how he built it. the electronics are actually from a gibson

[@DonaldHolben]

[@duncanurquhart2367]

Good man for putting this up. Always been my favourite Canadian musician by far. Always fought for Max as better than Rush as a teen LOL and saw them in our pt carling arena in 77 or 78, Always feel younger when you listen to Kim :)

[@Overdosed08]

I went to a show last year, Lou's son Sam was on stage playing keyboard. What an incredible show and an extremely talented young man. Can't wait to see these guys live again! It's been too long.

[@andersonian3122]

Thanks for posting. I remember buying this show on VHS from a record convention in '93 and still have it. I always wished Kim Mitchell would've remaster it and put it on CD and DVD/Blu-ray. Aural Fixations is a great album! Just before the grunge became huge.

[@Zubado1]

Wow, I did not know you could buy it on VHS. this copy Is the one I recorder LIVE on the night of the broadcast, I even called in with a Question for Kim, but there were too many callers. Enjoy the show.

[@andersonian3122]

@@Zubado1 yea I should've mentioned it was just a recorded version. It was recorded on a Scotch VHS tape with just the side label that says "Kim Mitchell: Intimate and Interactive 1992". Not even a label on the top. There were a lot of bootlegs at those record conventions.

[@Ontariosound]

I lived through this era of Kim. First cassette I bought was A Million Vacations. Saw him a dozen times. The audience always wanted him to rock out the Max classics. He should have have gone more in the hard rock direction. The softer stuff never went over well live. Killer guitarist, should have cranked up the Marshalls more... Hitting The Ground was a beautiful song though. He was never a sexy frontman and should not have been promoted as such.

[@patsuttonottawa]

Kim its probably second nature long ago but thanks for just giving it

[@walcoman]

Nope .. that's definitely not her in the corey hart vid (just took 4 minutes to dbl check even tho I already knew it wasn't her) ... let's face it .. Denise has never been known to be "hot" (sorry Denise 😜)
