Saturday Sounds - The Trans-Canada Highwaymen - Explosive Sounds Vol. 1

This week's musical treat is a tribute album of sorts. The Trans-Canada Highwaymen are a Canadian supergroup made up of Chris Murphy of Sloan, Craig Northey of Odds, Stephen Page formerly of Barenaked Ladies, and Moe Berg of The Pursuit of Happiness. Explosive Hits Vol. 1 is a tribute to the old KTel hits collections that were a particularly Canadian thing back in the 60s and 70s collecting radio hits and packing them in cheesy albums. 

The performers are top-notch musicians and the songs will bring back memories for anyone who grew up listening to Canadian radio back int the day. And if you're not Canadian, you may discover some great songs.
