Myles Goodwyn, principal songwriter, guitarist, and lead singer for the Canadian rock band April Wine, passed away today at 75. RIP.
Just Between You and Me was their biggest US hit in the Spring of 1981.

Interesting that both Just Between You And Me, and ELO'S Hold On Tight were hits in 1981. Why? Because they each contained lyrics partially sung in French.

Back in the 70s when top bands came to Canada they would play Toronto and Montreal, and then is few years later Vancouver became a stop. Canada is a big country with a smallish population. Cities are often very far apart making it financially difficult for a touring band…. Myles and April Wine were the big time band that actually came to your town throughout the Nation. I always respected that and appreciated the effort it took to bring the music to the people. Talented man, dependable band.
