Canada’s OTHER Power Trio

Alan Cross

Back in the 70s and 80s, Canada had this thing about cranking out power trios.  At the top of the stack was Rush.  Coming in second was Triumph.

Rush is still a going concern but the guys in Triumph packed in in years ago–except for that one time in Sweden on June 7, 2008.  That performance was filmed and is coming out on DVD and CD on August 28.
