Back in 1987. a new Canadian band appeared on the scene that caught my attention from their very first single, Outskirts of Life. Subsequent singles from that debut album and its successor confirmed the band as one of my favorites and, perhaps, as one of the great Canadian bands of my lifetime. The band was, and is, Blue Rodeo, fronted by singer-songwriters Greg Keelor and Jim Cuddy. I don't think I've heard a really bad song from these two.
