Wasn't a huge fan of the band, but I love this song. I think they were fairly big for a spell back in the day.

 

Never heard of them... this one didn't do it for me.

1. The Band. It is amazing that a band doing "Americana" and Southern music/R&B so well is actually 80% Canadian.

2. Joni Mitchell (here with an all-star band: Pat Metheny, Jaco Pastorius, Michael Brecker, Lyle Mays, Don Alias)

3. The Tragically Hip

All these had been mentioned before. Thus, to add my personal "obscure Canadian band":

Meh. They were just another crummy derivative of the popular at the time grunge sound. There’s at least a dozen bands from that time period that were pretty interchangeable. As in they all sounded exactly the same and they were all mediocre. OLP was the Canadian entry.

Aside from myself and row_33, I didn't think anyone here knew who Nash the Slash was.

Yeah, I may not be Canadien, but the Spirit was better than anything on Buffalo radio (other than Gary Storm’s Oil of Dog, of course).
