Episode 36: Triumph / Just a Game

Our selection this afternoon is another quality Canadian group from the Toronto area.  Most known for its guitar-driven rock songs, such as "Lay It on the Line", "World of Fantasy", "Magic Power", and "Fight the Good Fight". With its progressive rock influences the group produced some rather unique music that did well globally. Some of this was also derived from the classical music style that guitarist Rik Emmet brought to the band. Because of this there is always one classical guitar solo piece on every album. Although criticized by the rock critics by 1978 they were playing to crowds in excess of 100,000. So sit back and and listen to Triumph.
