Rock Goes To College With April Wine.

 I played a lot of old April Wine songs on good old YouTube today.

I stumbled with my music  surfing on April Wine on Rock Goes To College.  It was an excellent BBC music series when up and coming Rock bands would play universities,  polytechnic and colleges.  The AC-DC concert in particular is excellent.

Here's the great Canadian band April Wine in action from around 1980.  Oh I wish I had seen them play live:
