Oh What a Feeling - Crowbar

Another almost unknown Canadian band, this one hails from as close as Hamilton. Their 1971 release of Oh What a Feeling, they used to be a backing band for Ronnie Hawkins, and apparently got their name from when he fired him telling them " They could fuck up a crowbar in three seconds." This song I feel really emulates the sound of the 70's with its pleasant mood and musical pauses, as well as the backing vocals. Their only really known hit, this band wasn't big anywhere except in Canada, but at least that means we get to enjoy their sounds.
