[@scottheaton8469]

This song is just so fun and wholesome. No wonder we don't hear it on the radio.

[@russellyerxa3252]

This is an insanely clean live performance

[@thebluetarp]

My new favorite song of the 80's! Thanks Rickey for jammin this at your camp out. Saw the 8-track and thought man I gotta google this Kim Mitchell...

[@neems9002]

[@barryschlafmann4075]

[@ZachLagrandeur]

[@murphmanin]

Dude, I came here to write the same exact shit!! lol

[@shaundafoe1014]

I have been listening to this guy since I was14 and he still sounds great after all these years .

[@mikeralston777]

Thank you Canada. For the Hip too. And my girlfriend. Love, Mike in Tampa

[@timcloutier3729]

BOOOOMMMM!!!! Went for a soda......and NEVER LOOKED BACK!!!! KILLER SOUND!!!! 🤘🏻🎶🎶🥁🎤🎤🎤🎸🎸🎹🎶🎶🎶🤘🏻

[@jamiekeamo2504]

Kim Mitchell has the best sound man ever. All his mixes sound so bright and defined

[@AlexVonCrank]

even on this shoddy recording that is clear.

[@markrago5024]

Never gave Kim much thought, then one day I stumbled across Max Webster on KZbin. What a crime it was that that band never took off outside Canada. Kim Mitchell should have been a household name in the 70s and a legend by the 80s

[@hurtlockerr8661]

I loved Kims music I’m from Detroit MI . 313 was jamming this back in the day .

[@zombywoof7309]

​@@hurtlockerr8661 SHOUT OUT TO THE D! This is the only song I remember the radio stations playing of Kim's.

[@jamesscollnik9372]

The man is in his seventies and sounds as good as he ever did

[@mab033]

he is but he was 57 in the video still great

[@ROKRmarc]

Superb musicians...great rockin' tune '84 era...still loved today. 🎸🇨🇦👏

[@user-dq1kr6zc2t]

Very talented musician!

[@ZachLagrandeur]

Such a great song, and can we give it up for Chris Sutherland on the drums real quick? I love a drummer who just lays it down perfectly, with a great sound and intensity!

[@HzEh]

who cares about the lights , listen to him flawless.

[@TruthSurge]

Dude is a really good guitarist and his singing isn't half bad either. Reminds me of the Tubes a little bit.

[@RhondaKiss]

I love Kim's music. kim Mitchell Rocks!!!

[@michaelmoceri6469]

January 2020...still loving this song! Great performance! You can't help but sing along.

[@mikemercer5808]

This song needs far more airplay on American Rock radio. Just don't hear it enough.

[@Ryan-Hall]

That's so true, I have not heard it on my local Radio sence the 80's. A song that I live by, still got it Kim,,n

[@TommyWashow]

@@Ryan-Hall still played twice a day on every station in ontario regardless of genre

[@Ryan-Hall]

@@TommyWashow That's so good to hear, I really enjoyed seeing Kim with Pete Thorn Stream, was such a Kool dude would love to see him live, Go 4 A Soda, was 1st time I heard Kim, I was like wear did this come from as I have a great spot between Nashville and Muscle Shoals,AL. So many folks have record there, but after being around Pete's Stream has showed me R so much Talent we just don't hear from in South but R&R in south is sometimes not reach out far, but thanks 4 sharing & Rock is alive in Canada!!!

[@tvojslauf]

It plays in cleveland 98.5

[@1201zj]

Never once heard it on the radio (Florida). It's a shame. Only way I learned of it was from the Trailer Park Boys

[@jeffbaloga4376]

Love this song. A true timeless classic! Awesome!!!👍😎👍

[@ZachLagrandeur]

Killer song and the drums sound beast!

[@holdencaulfield6848]

who the hell are the eight unfortunate souls who had to give a thumbs down to this? They must be beating up small animals for fun instead..... That's just sad.

[@justindb18]

They must be Fuck Goofs

[@AGENTARMES]

San Diego checkin in. How did this band miss me all these years. CANADA I LOVE YOU

[@markmeier7692]

What a piece of artwork I love this song and I crank it when it's on the radio

[@jeffreytaylor2200]

Rockin in Quarantine 2020 Thank Kim !!! Saw You In Batavia Casino last year STILL ROCKIN !!!!

[@Peterswarahed]

Wow sounds perfect live :)

[@guitarz99]

what a kick azz band,seen this lineup live a few times...awesome!

[@mjlangley260]

The great canadian…went to one of his workshops many years ago…influenced me for the rest of my music career…amazing guitarist…go go ole blue

[@asifvirk953]

OMG HE SOUNDS AWESOME.

[@leendertvander9383]

Thank You for this video!! Unfortunately, I have never seen Max Webster/Kim Mitchell performing live. I think they only came to Europe once, in 1979, touring a double concert/support act on the RUSH hemispheres tour. My first RUSH show was back in 1979, aged 15, at the PINKPOP festival in Holland, Max Webster didn't play there. Boy, would I have loved to see Max Webster live on stage!

[@BeneathTheGold]

Thank you trailer park boys for leading me to these gems

[@flashy5150]

To me, these 2 guys singing are like David Lee Roth and Michael Anthony of Van Halen -- they sound perfect together.

[@raylovett9187]

Leave Han Halen out of this, as much as I love VH, In this instance they do NOT compare to the work, or craftsmanship to what Edward has created... given said... Peter Fredette DOES have the same Bass and Harmonies as Michael Anthony... yes, I will give you that...

[@zombywoof7309]

Always great drums on this. Fun song to play along to.

[@casinosnoopy9900]

Saw Kim Mitchell at Cardi's in Houston back when this song came out. I didn't go for a soda, I went for alcohol, and lots of it.

[@TheSegacampGamerandWerecamp]

I'm just glad to be Living in the Same Country as Kim Mitchell...... Canada!

[@cat-ej2pn]

Smokin!!❤

[@Craig-bz3dm]

This is the best cell phone video I've ever seen 😎😎😎😎😎

[@rodneyjweltham150]

Fantastic video. I doubt if it was a cell phone if it's back then. It might've been a video cam

[@christrudell7966]

Just seen Kim at the Commodore on November 11. JUST DOING HIS ROCK AND ROLL DUTY 💪🇨🇦

[@donaldfitzgerald2375]

I lived in Corpis Christy Texas when this song came out in the mid 80s and I loved it then and still LOVE it today. But the sad thing is when I moved back north I never heard it again must have been a song from the south that's the only place I remember hearing it was in Texas Good thing I bought the album back then.

[@Metalhead4EVR]

Hey Donald I've lived in Corpus Christi all my life. I remember C101 playing the shit out of this song. Those were the days. Rock on man. 🤘🤘

[@DEANLATEMODEL18]

WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! PERFECTION!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Sounds like that album did over 20 years ago.

[@barryschlafmann4075]

Dean Gassert i love the intro on this version!

[@pepsi_man4962]

I know right!!

[@alwilliams4135]

Coachlight Roller Skating Rink, St.Charles, Mo. I was there in the early 80's when this song was playing. And my girl on Fox Hill.

[@agari508]

[@pugster6837]

Fantastic guitar player! Love him on "Q" too.

[@steveroberts2180]

Akimbo alogo is one of the best rock albums ever,the needle hits the groove and you never take it off

[@timadams6745]

Great jam !!! I crank it in my pickup

[@musicmitchy4296]

[@stevejoyce4485]

Music will never be the same but thank god the youth coming up is picking it up.

[@bubbles2624]

[@happyelf8455]

[@tonyford8357]

Teenage anxiety 70s max webster, Rush had our backs in an unsure future. But here we are listening 50 years later, art never ages just let's the next age know ,we were hear we existed. Don't fuck it up like we did, and rock on.

[@drchico40]

[@Mattioleman]

[@connormacleod9065]

[@markdelio8281]

Should be the new Canadian National Anthem! Can't beat a little Kim Mitchell or Max Webster to blow away the blues!

[@redavenger5094]

Here's a national anthem: "Go to Canada" kzbin.info/www/bejne/i6jGZXR6fJuqgtk

[@ericferguson9989]

@@astark7439 Wow! I missed that. Kim Mitchel played at Riverfest in my hometown. After the concert there was a car full of yahoos, one of whom craned out of the window and yelled " I am a world party!" I had to cheer him on. "Yeah, buddy!"

[@jamesm28]

Such a deep and profound song

[@chrismason7066]

Had akimbo alogo on cassette back when it was released

[@nickbig]

Uncle Kim, see you in March in North Bay

[@dickdastardly2560]

What's with the hand flapping on top of his head??? Kim's been doing that for 30+ years and I never got it or understood it.

[@raylovett9187]

Peter Fredette is the coolest part on this song...

[@Motleymick]

Was Kim clapping his head? LOL

[@Bobjb999]

Who's singing the harmonies live on stage? I think his guitar's live but I think he's lip synching to a pre-recorded audio track that includes harmony singing one guy on stage can't do alone.

[@kevin48800]

thanks for the reply daniel why does he do that with his hand on his head

[@MehYam2112]

Waving goodbye to his hair
