@@jumpinjojo Yes I agree- underrated. Kinda like Rush. Extremely successful but mostly within their own fan base. Personally I was on board with both, but neither got the overall recognition they deserved. Look how long it took for Rush to get into R&R HOF- and Triumph STILL isn’t there. At least not the US Cleveland one.
bud,you may not be aware of the actual meaning of underrated?///? 10 albums and 8 of them are platinum or double platinum,every guitar player on earth knows who he is and admires him,he has toured shore to shore ,state to state,province to province with triumph and packed stadiums across the globe,that isnt underrated bud.he is the Canadian hard rock guitar god.
I had the absolute pleasure to tour with this band, among many others as their Personal Body Guard and Protection Specialist, what a great bunch of CANADIAN Guys, thoroughly enjoyed the tour, and the hospitality of The Canadian East Coast. Thank You TRIUMPH, Thank You East Cost, West Coast, and Central Canada, you were too kind. Rock On. All the very best, Gunner and His Team of Misfit Cowboys.
I loved Triumph when all my friends were hooked on Van Halen, I was screaming for Triumph!! When I finally got to see them live in Phoenix, Arizona it was 1986 and I was pregnant. They preformed at the Colosseum and the minute they started playing my son started jamming in my stomach!! Can't remeber who opened for them, but I was surprised there was not a bigger following. I enjoyed the show soooo much, till this day my favorite concert!
For Games Mike was a terrific bass player he also produced all of their albums as well as was the chief promoter, he is irreplaceable. Together they were the best band of their time. Imo
I was there !! That was one of my favorite concerts of the entire 1980's and i saw lots , great music and back then it was next generation light show , amazing lazer light show . I'm old !! lol.
Just... HOLY F***!! Gil Moore's vocal is like a mix of the best of Mike Reno (Loverboy) and David Coverdale (Whitesnake). Absolutely SUPERB band, vocally and musically. They don't produce bands like Triumph anymore. Perfection all around. ❤
Lisa D.; COMPLETELY AGREED!!!!! I'm gonna add 1 name in2 the fray (so 2 speak); JLT (Joe Lynn Turner) from Rainbow. The manner in how all 4 (Moore, Reno, Coverdale, & Turner) CARRY A TUNE is PHENOMENAL!!!!!! In other words, they can change their vocal pitch w/o losing stride. Granted; what I'm alluding 2 may sound technical but only a trained musical fan can detect such nuances. Consider urself amongst them (that's actually a damn fuckin' good thing).
@Lisa,I saw the Rock and Roll Machine tour way back in 1977 at a tiny auditorium called Le Plateau Hall Montreal,Que,300 seat capacity,they absolutely blew the roof right off.Gil is a superb vocalist and off the chart drummer,Rik's scorching licks and intricate detail in his playing has given me a lot of technique in my playing.He has an hour and a half lesson here,you'll love it.
Four years since someonetalked about this badass f..... Band? oh my God?? I am 63 from San Francisco. Was a college dj it's 2019!! Just found out this Band is ,was , will always be f..... great! Wow
I remember watching this on vhs when it came out me and my buddy who was in my band we had our girl friends over and watched most of it lol...i was blown away with Gil Moore and my buddy was a big Rick Emmett fan as well...
Caught him at a free show in T.O this summer and it was treat cuz I hadn't seen Triumph since 79. Can't recall this song but it would be perfect as a movie soundtrack.
@@scottdavidson7001 All my favorite Triumph songs r w/Gil Moore's vocals. This is my 3rd favorite (behind "I Live For The Weekend" & "Spellbound"). Don't get me wrong; Rik Emmett's a "GUITAR GOD" & knows how 2 sing but Gil Moore's ability 2 carry a tune speaks volumes (he reminds of Joe Lynn Turner from Rainbow).
Lyrics: We've passed the point of no return How can we make amends All alone I watch the candle burn Burning at both ends Nothin's ever gonna change Can tears wash away this pain Tears in the rain Here it comes again I'll never know the reason why I cry these tears in the rain (rain) The time has come to make a stand We've waited much too long Nobody's gonna lead us by the hand How could we be so wrong We lost the chance to the play this game Can tears wash away this pain Tears in the rain Here it comes again I'll never know the reason why I cry these tears in the rain So many times, I've wondered why We still play this game Tears in the rain Here it comes again I'll never know the reason why I cry these tears in the rain Tears in the rain Here it comes again Oh, I'll never know the reason why I cry these tears in the rain Rain, tears in the rain (Tears in the rain) I've been cryin' now Cryin' now Cryin' tears in the rain (Tears in the rain) I've been cryin' baby I wonder why I cry Ohhh, I'll never know the reason why (Tears in the rain) I wonder why I cry these tears (Tears in the rain) Cryin...
@@leomessi7058Have u listened 2 The Guess Who, Bachman-Turner Overdrive, Ian Thomas, Pat Travers, April Wine, & Honeymoon Suite? All those MFin' bands r > Rush.
As far as I am concerned Canada had two of the best power trios in rock history and they are Triumph and Rush! Covid19 and I was bored and down, but not anymore.
I was at Municiple Auditorium in San Antonio when they replaced Sammy Haggar when he got sick. Joe Anthony and Midnight Special brought them down. covid? we had to deal with disco until these guys showed up.
@@jeankutzer1556 I feel the same way about disco and electronica music, however I would listen to disco ten times over electronic music. At least early disco had real drums and organic instruments.
Rik.. Triumph... Just something special that came together. Another perfect storm of excellence that I'm glad I got to witness in the 80's (The best era of ROCK ever!) I'm still alive.. LOL . Wonderful memories!!
Holy cow! I just flashed back to the 80's big time. These guys to flat out rock. Saw them twice back then and the energy and stage show was awesome. Great Musicians with with great songs. At least I can hold onto my memories! The 80's were a great decade to grow up in. Wouldn't change a thing! Thanks for posting.
One of my favorite bands next to rush when they played live they literally blew the roof off the roar of 50 thousand people rocking out to a 100 thousand watt sound system and three guys playing thier hearts out it was just hair raising fun
Triumph est le meilleur groupe de tout les temps 🎸🇨🇦 les deux voix qui se complètent, la musique des années 70' et 80' c'était la meilleure 😜🇨🇦🎸👍❤️❤️❤️ love Triumph
All songs where Gil Moore is the lead vocalist, TRIUMPH has MAJOR CREDIBILITY!!!!! NO FUCKIN' DOUBT ABOUT IT!!!!!! "Tears In The Rain" EPITOMIZES what TRIUMPH & GIL MOORE REPRESENTS!!!!!! IT'S ALL DAMN FUCKIN' GR8!!!!!!!
absolutely great, an awesome rock performance, see how three excellent musicians without an specially atractive look can galvanize all an stadium with one great song
One thing I have learned, alot time's it wasn't that band's we're underrated, they just never get air play , take triumph you mostly only hear lay it on the line when they do play them never any of there new stuff as it came out just the same for so many band's at that time,
Saw them in '79. They already had the lasers, explosions, and incredible sound to make it the most memorable night of Triumph. (Ronnie Montrose and Gamma opened:)⭐
Picture this we r in my buddy's trailer way out in the country listening to kshe 95 heard a commercial for the concert triumph that night had and hour to get there oh yeah we got in our car and drove one buddy in the army reserve the other on leave from the army and me and we took off and went and had the best time of our life! And that's how u live life!
I cant belive that this bands total views for this song is under 10,000 !!! Its sad that so many great canadian bands dont get the airplay in the states that they deserve!! Its really a shame.
It is - but since this was a part of a produced release it might have some over-dubs to clean up the sound and mistakes......KISS live albums raw are pretty terrible - but after the over-dubs are added....sounds good. In Triumph's case - my guess is not much was done to clean this up. Guys were amazing live.
The drummer Gil Moore also executive produced the DVD and based on this review ( www.seaoftranquility.org/reviews.php?op=showcontent&id=1361 ) the reviewer also speculated that there was indeed vocal "retouching." Fans know both Rik and Gil were stellar live singers, so who knows? Who cares? If there is any doubt, listen to Triumph live at the US Festival and all doubt will be erased!!!
This band could hold their own against anyone. HIGHLY underrated!
Scott Davidson Underrated by who?? Worldwide tours, millions of fans, multiple gold and platinum albums.......what the fuck are you talking about?
Everyone that is, except Rush.
@@jumpinjojo Yes I agree- underrated. Kinda like Rush. Extremely successful but mostly within their own fan base.

@@dkwoodsy2082 Neither is Ian Thomas.
@@royalequeen5557 W/all due respect; RUSH SUCKS!!!!! IAN THOMAS, APRIL WINE, & ESPECIALLY TRIUMPH PROUDLY REPRESENT CANADA!!!!
two great lead singers; and one of the greatest rock bands of the 70s;and 80s.
yuppppp
COMPLETELY AGREED!!!!!
Back in the 80's, Rik was THE most underrated guitarist around. His talent was way beyond many in any rock genre. An absolute monster!
He is one of the best ever - can play pretty much any style, 12 string, steel guitar, acoustic...etc.
Al Maldonado still rue top 5...if not The Best
bud,you may not be aware of the actual meaning of underrated?///? 10 albums and 8 of them are platinum or double platinum,every guitar player on earth knows who he is and admires him,he has toured shore to shore ,state to state,province to province with triumph and packed stadiums across the globe,that isnt underrated bud.he is the Canadian hard rock guitar god.
So true Al. I shall them in Lawton Oklahoma in 80s blown away
Al Maldonado amen Rik Emmett was way beyond good he was GREAT

Gil Moore. Criminally underated drummer,and singer
AGREED, TOTALLY

One of the best live shows I've ever experienced. 3 great Canadian musicians. Thankyou Triumph!❤🇨🇦🤘
Absolutely one of the best rock bands of the 80s. The combination of talent was way above!!!
I love how smooth Gil’s vocals are while being a beast on the drums, very cool. 🤘🏼💀🤘🏼
Gil Moore never got the credit he deserved for lead vocals in Triumph!
I got the pleasure of touring with Triumph, and THIS was One of The Greatest Start of a Concert.
What an amazing friggin band!! I am so glad I saw them live when I did!!
AND the drummer can REALLY sing!!
TRUE THAT! Gil is the MAN!
Yeah Gil could sing, but he's NO RIK Emmett!! (lol)
noone is Rik Emmett, noone is Gil Moore either, I could replace Levine...
went to this concert, Sport of Kings, in '87 in Orlando FL... amazing... these guys are incredible!!
For Games Mike was a terrific bass player he also produced all of their albums as well as was the chief promoter, he is irreplaceable. Together they were the best band of their time. Imo
"Little Boy Blues"...the most beautiful instrumental ever written,adored Triumph,a giant loss for us all.❤❤❤❤
This is indeed one of the best live concerts I have ever seen !!!
One of the most underrated bands in history! Awesome musicians and chemistry!
I saw this tour in Dayton, Ohio. A little old band called Bad Company opened. Amazing night.
I was there !! That was one of my favorite concerts of the entire 1980's and i saw lots , great music and back then it was next generation light show , amazing lazer light show . I'm old !! lol.
Lol preach
Halifax was the untold Gem of the tour
Im brazilian, 36 yo, discovered Triumph in 2019, amazing band, incredible musicians, singers and songwriters, Rik is the man.

1,000,000%%%%%%
@@michaelprosperity3420 U betcha, Mike.
For sure. Possibly the greatest live band of all time.
You got to remember they got to get all the hip hop and rap artist in first then they will get triumph in. Rock and Roll Hall of Fame is a joke
Always and forever... Triumph!!!
I love this band
Saw this tour. Music was great and the best light show ever
I was here! Fucking awesome Show. Platinum Blonde Opened. Ha!
My First Concert Ever!
The Best Canadian band
I'll slightly disagree but definitely TOP 3 CANADIAN BANDS (& MUCH BETTER THAN RUSH)!!!!!
THIS is how you do a concert right!

Lyrics:
We've passed the point of no return
How can we make amends
All alone I watch the candle burn
Burning at both ends
Nothin's ever gonna change
Can tears wash away this pain
Tears in the rain
Here it comes again
I'll never know the reason why
I cry these tears in the rain (rain)
The time has come to make a stand
We've waited much too long
Nobody's gonna lead us by the hand
How could we be so wrong
We lost the chance to the play this game
Can tears wash away this pain
Tears in the rain
Here it comes again
I'll never know the reason why
I cry these tears in the rain
So many times, I've wondered why
We still play this game
Tears in the rain
Here it comes again
I'll never know the reason why
I cry these tears in the rain
Tears in the rain
Here it comes again
Oh, I'll never know the reason why
I cry these tears in the rain
Rain, tears in the rain
(Tears in the rain)
I've been cryin' now
Cryin' now
Cryin' tears in the rain
(Tears in the rain)
I've been cryin' baby
I wonder why I cry
Ohhh, I'll never know the reason why
(Tears in the rain)
I wonder why I cry these tears
(Tears in the rain)
Cryin...
The skill of those guys are unparalleled.
Canadian Legendary Band.

first US tour was 1978 for Just A Game
My dad introduced me to these guys probably 15 years ago. Live In Halifax was my first music DVD I ever bought. Well worth it
Absolutely they are amazing
Oh yeah high energy rock n roll.....what a kick ass band....thanks to Rik Emmet. My mentor
There show was outstanding
