A Little Retro Canadiana

Back in the 1980s, the Montreal-based indie record label OG Music was driving the Ontario/Quebec punk scene by releasing records from notable (if underappreciated) acts such as Deja Voodoo, Jerry Jerry and the Sons of Rhythm Orchestra, The Gruesomes

The Asexuals, U.I.C., The Ripcordz, and these guys, The Supreme Bagg Team:

I loved this video when I saw it in the really early ’90s, and I’m glad to see someone posted it to YouTube. It’s a fun, raucous cover of Canadian folk singer Gordon Lightfoot’s classic, If You Could Read My Mind…

…and it’s chock-full of pop culture bits that might be recognizable if you’re a Canadian of a certain age. Enjoy the tunes, as well as these stills from the video, featuring some Canadiana that’s no longer with us…
