The whole reason I started playing tbe guitar, due to the gent right here! Thank you Kim for inspiring me. Absolutely love Max Webster, all of your solo stuff too ... well I suppose I should just "go for a soda" now. Thanks again 😀
Nice Kim. Met you back in the 80's at Barrymore's in Ottawa. Good old days indeed! Max Webster was important to my mind adjustment period back in the mid 1970's. LOL > Thanks for continuing to thin the Thickness of our skin! Americas Veins was always a favourite of mine. Peace bro, and stay strong and free.
Beyond The Moon, Rainchild, Anything from the first LP. I remember when I first got "Blockheads", put on my headphones in my room and stared at the cover and credits for ever listening to the entire LP. Max was always a refreshing change from most other acts that were popular back in the day and the songs still hold up very well now. Thanks Kim
Coming off the moon / with my lady luck in haste Gave me shots of sorrow / shaved in photogenic lace Tying off her arm / my lady luck did answer-- Turn up the sky father music / everything below you is cancer Talking as she walks / so nervous and so shy She reads the look a second time / because of people's eyes... See--I love I love I love I love Khalidia Eye love eye love eye love eye love Khalidia Shooting up a thought / higher than the sky She turns around / and looks at all the people's eyes...C Licking off the spoon / my lady luck with cheers Gave wedding bells to martyrs / who burned her grace to tears
Love it! I use to listen to this song and album as a teen when it first came out my Dad got so sick of hearing it over and over and bought me a really nice set of pro headphones! Thanks for the redo Kim
Great song. Max and Pye at their eccentric best. I played in a band that covered this in the early 80's. I loved playing it. Before the age of the interwebs with instant tabs for every song ever written with a few clicks back when I had to listen and play along to the record over and over and again slowing it down to learn complex licks at half speed. At least I know I was playing this one right. Unlike "In The World Of Giants" which I never really nailed perfectly.
I've noticed this too. His singing just keeps getting better with age. It's not supposed to work like that. Astonished me . . . ASTONISHED ME! GET OFF THAT AIR OF MYSTERY. . . .
Hope you come back to the Rose Theatre someday soon. Was there for all your shows. Great venue. Great time. Awesome shows especially when you started including Max tunes to your set list.. Thanks for doing this.
My favorite Max album. My first concert ever was RUSH opening night on the American leg of the Moving Pictures tour I was thrilled that Max Webster touring Universal Juveniles was supposed to be the opening act. Sadly Kim quit the band right before that show and I sadly didn't get to see them. Although I was introduced to another great Canadian band that night FM that replaced Max on the tour, I will forever feel that to have been one of the most monumental injustices of my life.
I remember seeing Kim and Max Webster do this live back in 1976 in Montreal at the Theatre St. Denis, They were opening for Blackmore's rainbow abd played the whole first album. We all returned home and bought the album. Been a fan ever since and even did a piece on radio showcasing the music of Max Webster and solo career about a year ago
I met you and Pye in downtown Calgary at an album signing mmmfmmmnnnn years ago and I brought my Max CDs. Pye wrote a two line non sequitur train-of-thought poem inside of each one. I wish more people appreciated him for his alternate-route wordsmithing genius.
Hey Kim. Boor, Schlong, Murph et al. Never worked with you. I was FM, Nash the Slash. Having said that, went and saw Max every chance I had. You solo as well. Bala.....my oh my. Battlestar with Alex and Slash's band. Wax Lobster Brother.
In high school, I played the "blockheads" album until it was worn out and bought another. I have seen you play a few times since then, always a thrill. Until next time...
Loved that Strat sound......I know its nerdy and not cool to ask but .....pick ups and drive source.....???.....and one of my favorite Max songs......!!
Yeah...I could totally dig a couple of hours listening to you perform a concert right there in that chair.....!!! ....make it a pay per view .......!!!!!
Man, hearing you play this makes me just as happy as when I saw you with Max Webster at Lord Elgin High School in Burlington (1977 or so). Thanks for this Kim....and more please.
Kim you and I have a bit of history my first every show was seeing you at the Chateau and Cobourg Ont we shot the shit out back before you left in your van almost running over my foot lol. Then at another bar in cobourg ont Peter Gave me his bass pic at the end of the show. And my personal favorite. Is when you played a free show in Port Hope I thought it would be a good idea to film it you left the stage still playing guitar and told the Security guard to tell me to turn it off embarrassed you say the least lol. I don't know what I was thinking and you made a comment about ur gonna wake up tomorrow and wonder what was I thinking 🤔 likely the same as these lyrics lol. You always put on a great show Kim can't wait to see you again no cameras this time my word lol
Great Sat morning post. Summer just isn't summer without the Mitchell. I'd love to hear live max tunes. The sound mix is excellent, and maybe nobody has ever told you this, but you really nail that Kim Mitchell tone. :)
This is awesome, Kim! Saw Max at least 4 times in the 70s, including New Year's at MLG and saw you a few times over the last 10 years. Love this Max tune and would appreciate seeing any others. You're sounding great!
Just. F*#kin'. BRILLIANT.!!! Thank you Kim from Ireland! - you've made a 'not bad' day even 'not badder' ;) :D Btw, what song would I want to hear/see? - 'Lady Let Me In', please!
Love it .... what a great song and amazing guitar skills. KIM I'm using this video as a guitar lesson but when coming down from B to A to A, what type of chord is next? Sounds like some type of G# but can't figure it out at 38/39 seconds. Keep on rockin!
How about evry MW album played in order of release & in track order. To choose 1 song in isolation is too difficult for me. I wolud be pleased to hear any song or maybe you give us an insight to your favourites to play & sing. Pete C
He's just always been a cool cat. Grounded and soooo Canadian.
Kim sounds better at 70 than many who are 1/3 his age..it's really astounding! Loved the Port Credit show and looking forward to this summer!
One of my all time favorite songs. I still play it today!
Long live the Max Machine .
As soon as I got the first album I was hooked. Toronto Tontos will always be a top fav of mine.
THAT WAS AWESOME !
Amazing, Outstanding ❤😊 Love and prayers ❣️🙏 to you!!❤
Love ya Kim 🎸🎶
Paul Kersey is my all time fav Max drummer. This is one of his best!
Wow ... that's amazing
The whole reason I started playing tbe guitar, due to the gent right here! Thank you Kim for inspiring me. Absolutely love Max Webster, all of your solo stuff too ... well I suppose I should just "go for a soda" now. Thanks again 😀
My fav song from you ...awsome
Thankyou Kim!
Also love the Zappa poster.
Love this and would love a whole night of Max Webster songs!! Can't just choose 1.. you'll just have to play them all ;)
Wow. You really nailed this one, great job 2 with the backup track ❤️🎶🎶🎶🎶
Live Magnetic Air ...straight thru.....!!!!!!!!!
Everest Kim❤ Long time following

I wish I could add a new thumb every time I listen to this!
Coming off the moon / with my lady luck in haste
Gave me shots of sorrow / shaved in photogenic lace
Tying off her arm / my lady luck did answer--
Turn up the sky father music / everything below you is cancer
Talking as she walks / so nervous and so shy
She reads the look a second time / because of people's eyes...
See--I love I love I love I love Khalidia
Eye love eye love eye love eye love Khalidia
Shooting up a thought / higher than the sky
She turns around / and looks at all the people's eyes...C
Licking off the spoon / my lady luck with cheers
Gave wedding bells to martyrs / who burned her grace to tears

Oh, War!
It's hard to believe you penned this song 45 year's ago. It still holds up all these years later. 😎☮️
Truth!! Absolutely brilliant timeless music. The recording, as well, all the MW albums are insanely well produced. Kings.
Rosewood neck superb 👌 🎸
Fantastic Kim, great guitar tone and vocals. 🎸👍
❤❤❤❤❤
His voice is really strong here.
I've noticed this too. His singing just keeps getting better with age. It's not supposed to work like that. Astonished me . . . ASTONISHED ME! GET OFF THAT AIR OF MYSTERY. . . .

Brought back some forgotten memories. Use to cover this in a band Back in the 80’s
Incredible Kim. One of my fave MW tunes and indeed Pye at perhaps his bizarrest!! Loooove the Zappa poster!!
I met you and Pye in downtown Calgary at an album signing mmmfmmmnnnn years ago and I brought my Max CDs. Pye wrote a two line non sequitur train-of-thought poem inside of each one. I wish more people appreciated him for his alternate-route wordsmithing genius.
thanks Kim!
Very underrated tune!
And band!!
Kim I would love to hear Universal Juveniles on its entirety my all time fave
Damn Kim, it's like I discovered a time machine, you're timeless Brutha! HUGE SHOUT AND CHEERS FROM CALGARY ❤❤❤❤AND KEEP STRUMMIN'

I couldn’t help pretending to see your old Ampeg V4s in the background :()

Great tune!!! Haven't heard it in 'forever'! lol
In high school, I played the "blockheads" album until it was worn out and bought another. I have seen you play a few times since then, always a thrill. Until next time...

Ditto for me seeing Max at Nelson High School around 1980 or so. Would love to see Kim do “An evening of Max”
