- After reacting to some incredible Canadian bands like Rush, Triumph, and Saga, I saw so many of your comments suggesting the next must-hear band was April Wine. Today we're watching the official music video for the song "Roller."
Watch the original video uninterrupted: • April Wine - Roller (O...

.Miles Goodwin passed away in 2023 😔 April Wine stellar songs, great live band 🇨🇦
Shit, I had not heard this. RIP
Really? I saw him in Ottawa in 2022. What a show.

I did not know he died. I saw April Wine when they toured with Eddie Money. It must've been 1981? I got drummer Jerry Mercer's autograph when they were climbing into their limo after the show.
Saw them for free at Peachfest in Penticton Thurs Aug 9 2018. The park was filled up and the show was fantastic. Night before was Kim Mitchell. 2 iconic Canadian rock and roll bands live in a park jammed with 8000 or so people. All free!!!! I had no voice on Friday.🤘
@@josecuervo2736 I saw April Wine when they toured with Heart in 1975 in Edmonton at the Kinsmen Field House ! What a concert ! 🎸🎸🎸🎸
The most underrated band in the industry.
Sign of the Gypsy Queen is an AWESOME song from them.
Awesome song!
April Wine's version is okay. You might want to check out the original version which was written by Lorence Hud from Sakskatoon, Saskatchewan. Really good! By the way, Lorence Hud was a very talented guy since he played every instrument on the LP/CD. Four awesome April Wine songs that you may not have heard before are: 1) Say Hello 2) Enough Is Enough 3) Love Has Remembered Me 4) This Could Be The Right One.
@@tmr626 I never knew it was a cover. Both are good in their own right. Thanks for the suggestion!
@@tmr626Myles Goodwyn wrote this song. You’re obviously confused
@@sealisland1it’s not a cover. He wrote this song after his first trip to Vegas
I’m a proud Canadian and April Wine is one of the many reasons why. Growing up during the 80’s I likely saw them at least 6 or 7 times. They were a phenomenal live band! Thank you for taking the time to recognize their talent!
Yes and they were always touring it seemed
Same here fill up the car and head to there concert.
A great song to start with. This band was a stapple growing up in Canada in the 70s, 80s, 90s, and beyond. With at least 30 hit songs. RIP Myles G.
Fantastic song! Great band! R.I.P. Myles! Northern Rock Rules!🇨🇦
One of their best songs ever !
Nice to hear a rock reaction of a singer who isnt just a heavy metal screamer. This guy has some pipes.
April Wine were second to none in rock ballads. There were only three artists that got five airplays of one song on the first day of MTV. The Who, Phil Collins and April Wine (Just Between You and Me) which provided a wonderful sending off for Myles as some reactors played it upon his death.
Thanks so much for reacting to April Wine!
I'm Canadian and the first concert I went to was April Wine opening for Queen in 1975. April Wine sadly sold the publishing rights to all their music at the height of their popularity. April Wine broke up and eventually the money ran out and Miles being the main songwriter, had to reconstitute April Wine and they constantly toured and played in bars, community halls, and other small venues to try and pay the bills.
April Wine was known for their impeccable live performances and the juggernaut of three lead guitar players.
SUBSCRIBED, I needed this and your reaction today. Thanks again. 🎶✌️👉🇨🇦
Thanks for that knowledge.
April Wine is one of Canadas best rock bands that were around for decades. They were a lot of fun seeing live. RIP Myles Goodwyn.
And there were lots of opportunities, too. Great musicians who knew how to put on a show. Mercer was a beast on drums and the band was so tight! RIP, Myles.
Umm, Jerry is still with us I believe.
Yes he is. A fantastic drummer. @@waynethera2712
I promoted a concert in1975 and I hired April Wine as the main act. I'd promoted other bands and the most difficult to deal with were bands on the way up but not there. They often had members and managers that thought they knew the business but actually didn't. Myles and April Wine were total pros. So very very nice to deal with. They were a great band live or in the studio and they were very appreciative of the gig and were really good to me, only 19 at the time.
Myles you will be missed but your incredible songs will live on for many, many years.
You Get IT! What I've loved about April Wine for the past 40+ years is that they can grind the metal edge yet throw some blues and still croon some early classics. They were so able to cover all sides of rock and blues. I have all their albums pre-1990 and love them all. Such a talented band.
April Wine. Myles Goodwyn; what can I say. I've been a fan for 52 years. I've attended dozens of their concerts. Myles has always been my #1, favorite singer, songwriter and musician. I listen to his music almost everyday. Wonderful to see younger people discovering April Wine. Jim Clench, Steve Lang and now Myles Goodwyn 1948-2023, RIP
Garry Moffet too!
@MrManfly I pretty sure this Gary is still with us.
🥰 April Wine & Triumph were my two HS go to groups & was a rare California fan that loved their outstanding music, voices and beats. Most had not heard of April Wine as the group wasn't as overplayed on the radio like Rush was in CA. They were my very 1st concert in 1983 - also saw Triumph at the US Festival in 83 too! What a rockin' year that was! I never realized that I was such a fan of Canadian bands, (Billy Squire and Aldo Nova were other Chunuk rockers I liked) there was no Google around to tell us that then. Thanks for the review! "I like to Rock" is another great April Wine song too! Left a comment on your Triumph review too. 😘
I may be mistaken but I've been listening to rock and roll for many many many many years 68 years old and if it weren't for going to college open in the military growing up in the Deep South I feel like we never gave the Canadians the recognition they truly deserved outside of a very few artists as I get older I'm glad I had very good friends I grew up along the Canadian border that introduced me to monster bands back in the seventies like Rush mahogany rush budgie April Wine to name a very few I could go on all day and touched the country rock their country music spoke they have contributed a tremendous amount rock and roll music and I'm glad to see that you are bringing them to the Forefront
so many canadian bands/musicians go under the label 'musician's musicians' and 'underappreciated'. we're not british and we're not american, the two big hype machines that we can't compete with.
Er . . . . . you say Budgie was a Canadian band? Are you SURE? I really think you will find that they came from Wales, in the UK.
Absolutely right that was my mistake I was shooting from the hip and I was on a roll bougie is not Canadian and I apologize to them but I still love them
Not to mention that at that time we had over 10 Bluesy, Rocking, Ballsy Female Led Bands that were Rock Icons up here. Sass Jordan, Alanis Morissette, Rough Trade, Amanda Marshall, Darby Mills, Toronto etc. just blistering their way across the country.
Lots of great canadian bands.. Chilliwack, Loverboy, BTO, The Guess Who, The stampeders, Triumph, Big Wreck, Tragically Hip, Big Sugar, RUSH, Brian Adams, Helix. We ve been pretty lucky growing up in CA to hear a regular mix of Canadian bands on our radios mixed with the American greats as well.
Please react to April Wine's "Just Between You And Me", one of their best ballads. They had many greay songs, most writen by Myles Goodwyn (passed away Dec. 2023). They had a great soundm and were fantastic performers. Hughly under ap[preciated outside of Canada. Started out in Nova Scotia and moved to Montreal.
As a young teenager, I bought their live album. It featured that song, and his performance on it was amazing.
Get out of here! Can’t believe someone is reacting to April Wine. One of my fav’s!! Thanks for reacting, Love it!!🙏🏼🌹💕
Love this reaction. Thanks for getting April Wine on the channel. There is a lot of great songs by them
I would like to see more April Wine for sure. "Oowattanite", "Say Hello", "Weeping Widow", to name a few.
For me it's type of The Poke or Silver Dollar and so many more.. Absolute favourite is Runners In The Night. Slightly forgotten gems!
They’ve just got SOOO many hits it’s disgusting. One of the most underrated bands in history, these guys are seriously talented, especially Myles. RIP ❤ Weeping Widow, Sign Of The Gypsy Queen, Oowatanite, Lady Run Lady Hide, Rock n Roll Is A Vicious Game, the list goes on, they don’t miss, every song is great.
The early stuff is FANTASTIC!
I’ve been a fan of April Wine since the early ‘70s…..still listen to them almost daily. They’re originally from my end of Canada..the Maritimes, and Myles lived here right up to when he passed recently. So glad you appreciate them. Thanks for the great review, and explanations.
Same here, I'm from the east coast too, saw them a few times, great songs!
@LastNamefirst-wv7jj I believe Myles was born in Woodstock ,New Brunswick. Then moved to Waverly I met Jim Henman a few years back, he was only on the first album, he played with Myles in The Termites, before April Wine, his cousins Dave and Ritchie Henman both played on the first two album too. Nice guy! Too bad Myles passed away. Great band!
@LastNamefirst-wv7jj Haha, I hear you on the memory part, I was 10 in '84, so I grew up on all that great music of the 70's and 80's. too.
@LastNamefirst-wv7jj Always heard he was born in Woodstock, New Brunswick. I went to school with a cousin of Jerry Mercer’s
@LastNamefirst-wv7jj well, glad you’re still around and enjoying music! 😄
Myles had one of the best voices of all time. He could sing any style. He could sound sexy, or sensitive or cool and aggressive. Nobody sounds like him. Plus a top notch songwriter.
Never thought I would see a reaction to April Wine. They were a huge part of my high school years. Grew up in Northern Vermont about an hour from the Canadian border and two hours from Montreal. Local radio was crap and I listened exclusively to CHOM-FM out of Montreal. They turned me on to April Wine, Rush, Led Zepplin, Boston, Foreigner, and Pink Floyd. So many memories for this 60 year old.
I'm 59, and I grew up on the other side of Lake Champlain. My music experiences were very similar to yours. I had the benefit of a second Canadian rock music station from Ottawa, CHEZ-FM 106.1. But I listened to CHOM-FM 97.7 a lot as well.
I think that Myles Goodwin himself (God rest his beautiful soul) would have adored the very kind and wonderful words you have used to describe this great song. Thank you
This takes me back to 1980. We were in art class and somebody put this in the cassette player. (Yeah, I've reach "Old as dirt", status). I couldn't believe what a beautiful voice Myles had. He passed at 75, this year. Thanks, Myles. Perhaps if you want something heart felt, try" Rock n Roll is a vicious game". Myles and Wine really give to you in the heart.😎🎸🎸🎸.
April Wine was a band that never got the recognition they deserved. btw right there with ya on the old as dirt I'm 56 and the music from "our" generation will never be surpassed!
57 here. We're not old as dirt, yet.😁
@@dianajemison105 oldies but goodies!
Roller and Rock n Roll is a Vicious Game are both from the album First Glance, which came out in '78. I bought it just after it came out. Foolishly, I got rid of it decades ago because of a few scratches.
We had April Wine on 8-track, that was all we had in the car, 8 track recorder and some blanks from Radio Shack
April Wine has a long rabbit hole and an overwhelming amout of great music to explore.
Such a great voice and a underrated band.
Lots of love for all these Canadian bands from Wisconsin. We got to see a lot of these guys earlier than the rest of the US. I like all of the recommendations for future listening, especially "Just Between You and Me", which is probably my favorite ballad by a hard rock band.
Great Band, Great choice!
I seen these guys live in Bismark North Dakota in 1981.
It was an excellent concert!
I love this song/band and, I LOVE your channel!
Keep up the wonderful reactions!
Watching from Missouri, US.
Another outstanding Canadian band.....lots of great songs from Myles and the boys
0:21, Yeah, I knew that would grab your attention, LOL. I just loved how the band's 3 guitarists manage to keep themselves seperated in what they play, especially on the solos, like they were having a guitar battle.11:08...All 4 front guys froze and posed on the stop--Rock Gods to the max!
One of the great "unheard" of bands from this time period. The first time I heard them in the early 80's I was captivated, and everyone thought I was nuts. And yet, this stands up even BETTER today than it did back in the day. When I pick up a guitar I'm more than likely to start playing Big City Girls just because. Thanks for your insight, great fun!
My favorite April Wine songs as a teenager, about 40 years ago, were "Just between you and me" and "Sign of the Gypsy Queen" and "I Wanna Rock". There were several others I liked a lot too, but those caused me to not only get the vinyl album, but also the cassette so I could listen in my car.
Agreed. But it is "I Like to Rock".
@@chrisclanton4430 Wanna Rock is on Nature of the Beast
April Wine are legends in Canada. R.I.P. Myles
Another great band from Canada .They are from Halifax Nova Scotia .Seen them many times when they played the bars here always put on a great show. RIP Myles Goodwyn
And oh those Ferry rides after an April Wine show at the Metro Centre
Only Myles . They were based in Montreal
Actually, Myles was from Woodstock, NB. The rest of the band (the original lineup at least) were from Halifax. RIP to Myles who passed away late last year. 😢
@@MrCanuck111 Yes Myles was from New Brunswick but the band was formed in Waverly Halifax Nova Scotia in 1969
@@MrCanuck111 he moved there when he was very young
Myles' voice was delicious and instantly recognizable. The dueling guitars made April Wine concerts such a treat. If you want to review another catchy banger, you can't go wrong with "Oooowatanite" (I can never remember how many o's are in that title).
Oowatanite is sung by bassist Jim Clench.
Thank you for checking out April Wine! A great rock band with plenty of great songs. As a Canadian, I have *of course* seen them live, at a club right here in Calgary, Alberta, I believe in the late 90s / possibly early 2000s. I distinctly remember that when I was a pre-teen / early teen in the early to mid '80s, they also played a bar in my small home town of Lethbridge, Alberta (population around 50,000 to 55,000 at the time) several times. They spent their career as a hard-working touring band without much glamour. Seriously under-rated, IMO.
Cheers!
April wine is the real deal. They still get tons of airplay on my classic rock statio herr in Canada. They have a deep catalogue. Great band live. Saw them several times.
Fun to know. They sure don't get played on the classic rock stations here in Denver, which is a crying shame. They sure as heck should be because they're fantastic. This tune is my fave, but I also like I Like to Rock a lot, and I've played both of those songs in bands I've been in.
Another awesome reaction & this one more than others for me growing up in Nova Scotia (where they're from) I've seen the band close to 20 times & even met some of them working in bars for 22 years. They had such a range of songs (& amount) that made so many people fans! Rip Miles ❤.
Love your enthusiasm. April Wine is
phenomenal. Shotdown, I Like To Rock and on and on. Fabulous library of music, you won’t be disappointed.
Since I am from Ontario, Canada and grew up listening to all the bands you listed above, I am really enjoying the journey. Thanks for another great reaction.
I love seeing your enthusiasm for bands/songs you are not familiar with but I haven't heard in a while. Canada has had some damn good musicians come out of it. Thanks for posting
Thank you sweetheart for playing this incredibly amazing and underrated band! Myles was so great! Please check out more as you'll definitely enjoy..cheers 🥂 🎶
Another April Wine fav of mine is "All Over Town."
I luv your reactions- I learn so much about the art of singing from your videos. Great job!
April Wine is fantastic. Grew up hearing it a lot in the 70s but in Canada we probably got a lot of extra radio play since they were Canadian.
I grew up in the 80s and 90s in Nova Scotia and got to really enjoy the music of Aprilwine. My parents took us to many AW concerts, they were fans from way back in the day. My Aunt married one of Myles brothers. We got in to a lot of shows for free. I never got back stage myself, but I did get to meet him a few times over the years. Thanks for this nice review of this under rated and underappreciated band. :)
Thank you soooo much for this great reaction. Like a lot of the commenters here, I too grew up listening to this awesome band and got to see them live as well. Your reaction brought back great memories.
Awesome seeing another Canadian great rock band.
For many of us east coasters growing up in the 70's, April Wine was our first taste of live pro-level rock and roll. Saw them several times over the tears at the old Sydney Forum and they kicked serious ass EVERY time.
A.W. was my first big rock show,back in '81,with Harlequin opening up,as I recall...
2nd row centre seats,and,my ass never touched that seat once, for the whole gig.
Close enough to feel the heat from the flash pots.
I couldn't even hear properly for 3 days.
A perfect intro to live music for a kid.
I heard recently that Myles never really thought of himself as a singer but as a song writer he just did it. Personally, I just melt when I hear his ballads. Such a sweet voice, who knows how to kick it when he decides to. Maybe listed to Like a Lover, Like a Song for contrast?
My favorite band of all time. They toured Canada often and I last saw them perform 4 yrs ago in my hometown of st johns
My first concert was April Wine, they were the opening band but I was really there for them . 13 yr old me was blown away
Out of the Canadian bands I was attracted to during 70's and 80's the big three are Rush,April Wine. and Triumph.
One of my favourite bands growing up in Canada. Saw them live in 1980 when I was 16. What a treat! What a sound.
It's funny how the big three 🇨🇦 rock bands that have been analyzed have front men with the ability to use high-pitched vocals. Coincidence or competing styles? They made it hard for tweens, teens, and even adults to follow along without cracking their own voices.
I'm glad you got around to April Wine. They made a lot of songs you wanted to play in your car on dates.
a lot of male canadian vocalists had that tone at that time for some reason. Bill Henderson of chilliwack and Kim Berly the drummer (who sometimes sang lead) from the stampeders to name but two more, there were many. they could all play and sing back then. that high singing tone was a real thing though.
I heard Geddy say once that in the early bar days with poor p.a.'s and limited monitors the vocals had to be up in that register to cut through at volume
Great band, especially live. Got to see them 3 times. So good. Mercer was a beast!!
Underrated Canadian Band!! Seek out some of their ballads, Myles has a phenomenal vocal rage
I am so happy to see April Wine on the reaction list! Love them!
Being a hometown boy,April Wine were ALWAYS sure to hit us up,every tour.
I must have seen them at LEAST 4 times,and,it was NEVER a disappointing gig,even when the album that they were touring FOR wasn't a particularly good record...they had a solid enough back catalogue to dig into.
NEVER a bad show,even after
Myles went and did his solo thing for a while.
R.I.P. Myles,and,thanks for leaving behind so much to remember.
I hear ya .. I grew up with Rush in my back yard ... an amazing sensation having one of these epic bands on your doorstep
God, I had forgotten how good "April Wine" was.Another great Canadian band that was not seen for their talent
God, I need to listen to my April Wine records. Always loved his voice and phrasing.
Canada is so underrated for the band's they produce the quality is really up there with the British and so overlooked. It's true ❤
I seen this exact line-up back in the seventies. Needless to say it was awesome! With this group they had three lead guitarist, which means they would switch guitar solos, licks and tricks, to where as i felt like i was at a tennis match, trying to keep up with all the back and fourth solos. Made me pay attention and get more involved with the song and entire concert! 🙂
Aw, love the song! ❤❤ One of my favourite April Wine songs. The part with the three guitarists soloing together always sounds to me like a waterfall of music. Great choice. The music of my youth. Yes, I am also as old as dirt! LOL
It was so good to finally hear some love for April Wine and Myles! You made my day, thank you!
I truly enjoyed watching you, watch my favourite Canadian band. Back in the day, their concerts were fantastic and they played so loud, you could just feel Jerry Mercers drumming (never saw the band with original drummer Richie Henman) rumbling through your chest. Loved watching you enjoy this. ❤
Thank you for shining a spotlight on April Wine. They are so underrated.
Rip Myles Goodwin didn’t realize he passed away until this post and I looked him up
Saw them several times throughout the Late 70’s, early 80’s. One of the best live bands ever!! Hopefully your a fan 💪💪
Saw them live 3 times in the 70's and they were fantastic.
So happy that you decided to react to April Wine. They were one of my favorite bands growing up. Myles Goodwyn lived in our neighborhood (Montreal's West Island), the next street over in the early 70's. I remember seeing them play at my high school and at the local hockey arena. Great times. I think I still have their second album, "On Record" in vinyl somewhere in the basement. Some other good Canadian bands that I remember from that era are Mahogany Rush, Kim Mitchell, The Guess Who (Burton Cummings) and The Wackers. The latter was actually from California and moved to Montreal in 1972.
Another band that you might want to react to is Bad Company or Free. They both featured Paul Rogers, my favorite blues/rock vocalist. I saw that The Charismatic Voice reacted to them last week.
My first concert was April Wine back in the eighties. Awesome band great times! RIP Myles
I can't say how many times I've seen "My first concert was April Wine" For me it was the Halifax Metro Centre around 1980 (not sure), opening act Red Ryder (Tom Cochrane) with their hit White Hot. I don't recall them doing Lunatic Fringe which came out in 1981.
So glad you checked out April Wine, they're from my part of Canada, on the east coast, saw them live a few times! Myles Goodwin had a great voice, he could sing rockers but he could sing the ballads too. Check out all their 70's stuff, Stand Back is a good starter album, a mix of rockers and a couple great ballads as well. Cheers!
Wooohooooooooo!!!!!
Myles has such a clean voice. Been waiting for this one. Rock on, Garth!!!
Hi Bethany. You made my day better today! I was having a bit of a downer day, but watching your reaction to April Wine made me smile from ear to ear! This is one of my favourite songs by them and also, my first live concert was seeing them in Toronto in the 80's. Thanks so much for this!!!
Just Between You and Me
You want to hear Myles sing? OMG my fav song since the 80s he's so good❤🇨🇦
The biggest song on the opening day of MTV along with The Who's "You Better You Bet" and Phil Collins' "In the Air Tonight".
April Wine, Triumph, Rush, maple syrup…you get the idea. These were my formative years with cassettes and 45s as staples. Thanks for this.
I sent him a video of my youngest daughter singing I like to Rock and he posted it on his page. They have so many great songs. Keep em coming
Love your reactions! Saw this band in 82 in Germany at a festival and they were tremendous!
I saw Myles with his trio not long before he passed... he still had it! You need to analyze April Wine's "I Wouldn't Want To Lose Your Love"... it shows off the best of his vocal prowess, range and sensitivity. As much as Myles could belt a rocker like "Roller", few in music history could navigate a rock ballad and draw a listener into the story like Mr Goodwyn could... RIP, my Maritime brother!
That trio axing over each other is some of the best guitar work I've ever heard. Love it.
saw them live 1984,just as good live as studio albums.thanks for showing them.
@THE_VOCALYS nature of the beast tour,we were young and full of energy,wasnt aware myles passed on.have a good day
I'd recommend checking out "I Like to Rock". The tag at the end melds that track with "Day Tripper" and "(I Can't Get No)Satisfaction".
was a big fan back in the day, saw them live as an opening act for Nazareth. They sounded great. Thanks for the reaction!
RIP Myles Goodwyn
Man, how lucky am I to watch my favorite TH-cam reactor, who is so Gorgeous 😍 and musically knowledgeable to react my favorite Rock band. Please stay in this Rabbit hole. They're just so good. 💯🔥🎸🎶🎵
HAPPY MONDAY 🫵♥️😄😉
Canadian Guitar Gods🤘🤘🤘🇨🇦✌️🙂
Greenway is American
You would have fit so well in the 70's. Such a magical decade of music!
Canada AGAIN!!! April Wine formed the soundtrack of my younger years...so grateful for the music.
As famously quoted previously by yourself..."Canada for the Win...Again!!"
I was fortunate enough to see them a few times and one time front row. What a great concert with such a variety of songs. Rest in peace Myles - the songs and vocals live on 😊
Your expression at 11:02 made me fall out of my chair. So, I get to listen to one of my favorite bands and watch a beautiful talented woman react to it with joy is a gift only the Internet can provide. "Say hello" is one of my all time favorite April Wine songs. I think it's 6/8 time. Hypnotic.
from ballads to rock bangers APRIL WINE kills it- make sure to check out some live songs they have performed and toured for 50 yrs (still do even tho they have lost MILES) and JERRY MERCER is a BEAST on the drums
Love April Wine and have been a fan since 1972. they rock great, saw them the first time when I was 17 in '72. saddened with Myles death, felt like I lost a great friend R.I.P. Myles.
April Wine is one of my favorite bands. My favorite song of all time is Wings of Love. It starts so slow and mournful and ends up encouraging and upbeat. Beautiful Song.
Canadian masterpiece !
Born in Halifax in '65. Never gets old. They had so many bangers.
Roxy Roller by Sweeney Todd (1976), Nick Gilder had a voice, and a very young (16 year old) Bryan Adams on guitar
Probably one of the most underrated bands of the last 40 years.
I've watched soooo many of your videos and it's wonderful to see April Wine featured. I don't think they received the recognition they deserve. Sadly Myles (singer/guitar) recently passed. He was genuinely a really nice guy. I had the great privilege to chat guitars with him a few times.His voice was still pretty impressive even on his last recordings and was still playing live shows. He is greatly missed here in Halifax NS and Canada lost another of its musical legends.
I am glad you are enjoying April Wine, formed in Waverly, Nova Scotia, Canada ,saw them live, a lot in the early 80s! RIP Miles Goodwin!!
One of my favorite Rock bands from that era who I saw live back in the day. For whatever reason they didn't have quite the commercial success and following of Triumph and definitely not Rush and it baffles me to this day. I've seen Rush many times live and Triumph and April Wine was right up there as performers in their own way.
