565.0. "April Wine" by ANT::SLABOUNTY (The word for today is legs ...) Wed Jun 21 1989 20:38

    
        These guys have been around for a few years ... some of
    	their stuff is great.  Partial discography:
    
    	First Glance
    	Harder ... Faster
    	Power Play
    	Walking Through Fire
    	The Nature of the Beast
    	Animal Grace
    
    	I have all of these (I believe) plus one more, which I can't
    	seem to recall.  Self-titled album, maybe?  My favorite cuts:
    
    	All Over Town			Sign of the Gypsy Queen
    	Just Between You and Me		Roller (all-time best!)
    	21st Century Schizoid Man
    
        and probably a few more.

565.1April Wine Rocks!RAVEN1::B_ADAMSB.A.Thu Jun 22 1989 02:3414
      Yeah, They were GREAT!
    
         Back when I was in high school, we used to ride around the
    country side and listen to First Glance! I have some real good memories
    whenever I hear one of their tunes.
         I don't think they made the Video change that came around a
    couple of years ago. I think that hurt their popularity. But, I've
    still got records to turn too.
         
         Mayby they will come out with some real rock'in stuff, if their
    still together!

    I believe that's it?????      A real great collection of hits...

        RE: Lies, Lies, Lies
    
            It's "Tellin' Me Lies", off of "The Nature of the Beast".
    
        And another album - "Stand Back".  (That's the one that I
        have that I couldn't remember).

    The only AprilWine I had was "Nature of the Beast". Just Between You
    and Me wa a killer ballad, and when I hear it I still think of this
    chick.

    Does anyone know off of which album the song "April Wine" is on????
    I've heard it a couple of times....but never found out which album it
    was on.
    
    
565.6NEVERMINDAIADM::BURKARTMon May 07 1990 16:063
    Well...nevermind...the song isn't "April Wine".  Which album is "Just
    Between You and Me"? on??

Ah-hah! No wonder you never got an answer!

"Just Between You And Me" is on 'Nature of the Beast'. Its probably their best 
album, and also has the songs "All Over Town" and "Sign Of The Gypsy Queen".

565.12BUSY::FISED::SLABOUNTYAsk for a mine and I'll give you the shaft.Mon Aug 08 1994 17:3411
    
    	Picked up "Frigate", a new one, the other night [I know, I know,
    	what DIDN'T I buy the other night?  8^)].  Not impressed.  I
    	think they're past their prime by a few years/albums.
    
    	They absolutely trashed Foghat's "I Just Wanna Make Love to You"
    	and Spencer Davis' "I'm a Man".  Guitar is OK, but the vocals
    	just don't cut it.

565.13BUSY::SLABOUNTYConsume feces and expire.Wed May 29 1996 16:0711
    
    	Gave "Attitude" a couple listens yesterday ... not bad.
    
    	I guess it's a matter of telling myself that they will NEVER
    	be able to write another "Roller" or "All Over Town", and just
    	learn to accept that and judge their other material on their
    	own merit.
    
    	That stated, it's not a bad album.  Low BACTRM rate, some good
    	rockers, and Myles' voice is still relatively good.

    Mr. Richardson, 
      If you want to see them they are playing at the Smoking Gun in Bells
    Corners (old City Slickers) in the NEAR future.  Call the Bear, they'll
    tell you when.

    I can remember when I was about 15 or so and some older guy said to me
    "April Wine, you look so fine, do you taste like wine?".
    
    Just thought I'd share.
