Amazing band! They are so unique... At 70 years old, Rik is fighting prostate cancer..please let's send him all of our love and prayers!
Prayers sent for Rik! My favorite all-time singer/lead guitarist combo! I don't think many people realize how difficult it is to be great with both. God bless you, Rik Emmett!
🪷
Did not know this . Sad . one of the best light shows I ever seen .
I'm sure he's been given the all clear.
Prayers up for Rik.... I had the pleasure of meeting him twice.... What a gentleman!
This vocal coach has great taste in music. I really love that she likes Triumph so much, and I enjoy her analyses. I've loved this song since 1981. Does anyone else feel that Triumph is underrated?
criminally so
Criminaly. Max Webster, saga April wine (drummer uses a ref's whistle to end the hypnotic drum solo. who does that?)
One of the most criminally underrated bands of all time!!! 🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦
And there's the condescending comment on someone else's comment to prove that their opinion is somehow more valid than someone else's. I think it's an illness.
Been waiting on more by this band.ty
@rickdaniels1789 agreed. Triumph is not underrated at all. Anyone who hears them rates them as skilled. What they, are is not known as much as Rush or the US bands of the time. And that's OK. They were huge in Canada. For whatever reason some of our most talented bands to get big down south. And then on the other hand some of our least talented do.
@@rickdaniels1789 No, Ricky, it's YOUR observation. That doesn't make it an accurate one.
The group Rush took all the laurels
Rik was my music business and songwriting teacher in college just over a decade ago. Let alone his performance and compositional chops: he was one of the most invested and passionate teachers I’ve come across. Positive, knowledgeable and demanding yet fair - we’d often get emails late at night following up on questions we’d asked in class. I remember those classes very fondly.
Thaaatz awesome 👌 👏
Consider yourself blessed 🎶❤️👊🙏
That's amazing!
Not surprised.
TRIUMPH were the good guys 👍💪🔥🙏
Rik Emmett is a genius singer, guitarist, and writer. He should honestly be mentioned in the same sentences with Freddy Mercury, Steve Perry, et al.
And Bad Company Paul Rodgers! Just saying!
@TroyOttosen-jg7tt and Ronnie James Dio, Steve Walsh, Robin Zander, etc... saw Triumph four times '78 to '86...FANTASTIC songs, live band band, stage show, etc.. rik is a world class virtuoso voice and guitar! My favorite guitar/vocalist...along with David Gilmour.
Steve Perry did his own harmonies and it sounds like he should have had a better idea. Too smooth and over produced imo,
Rik is the best !! Besides one of the greatest voices, he’s also playing a double neck, 6 and 12 string guitar simultaneously !!!
I’m 61… too many parties and memories of listening to TRIUMPH. You sit back and listen this. This song is absolute art.
I'm 65 listening to this and for the life of me, tears are streaming down my cheeks. Thank you. 😩👍
right? same. tears of happiness, but also sadness on some level at the same time. they were so great.
The pure emotion he pours into each vocal and performance.. no one does this today! fyi.. I am 69
Almost 65. Great music is magic and it makes me tear up the older I get ...I just let it flow...I dont care
61 and does the same to me...always has!
I have the same reaction sometimes to these professional vocalists analyzing music we grew up with. It's like reliving our youth in depth. Draws a lot of emotion. A longing of days gone past or a memory of it
Rik Emmitt is a world class talent. Vocals AND guitar.
I accept being old now, because it means I got to be young then...
Born in '64 and these guys were a soundtrack to countless precious memories. 🤘
And not only does Rik deliver stunning vocal performances, but he does he while strutting around playing amazingly precise and complicated guitar parts.
Do you see how thick that les Paul he used during this show. Looks like about a 5” wide strap. He plays by his chest. Better high fret access.
@PhonePole68 Actually a Framus Akkerman.
Many people came to this festival not really knowing who Triumph was...and then they left, singing their songs... Triumph crushed it. 🤘
Every single time I see you react to Triumph, I cannot click play fast enough. Rik and the boys were so good, and the fact that he plays great guitar, and can sing like that, makes him one of the best of all-time.
Could easily fill either lead role in any band, but is doing both at the same time in his.
💯
I love her reactions to Triumph. So much love and appreciation.
Triumph was the hit of the entire festival. This performance really put them on the map as a band for the whole world. Triumph's concert that day has become legendary, it was even released on dvd.
There were a lot of great guitarists at the US Festival but no one played better than Rik.
From what I understand they were a last minute substitution. Weren’t on the original playbill. Lucky for us all.
The 80's was a Untouchable era for Rock and Metal. It will NEVER be duplicated again. Glad I am old enough to have been there and saw and heard it live. Nice react Beth!
I agree, we had the best musicians and music
Amen. Insanely lucky to be a teen in the late 70s-early 80's. Rock N Roll everywhere.
Couldn't agree more, glad I got to experience it as well.
Thanks for giving Triumph and Rik Emmett some well deserved attention. I've been a fan since 1978. It was a glorious experience to see them live from the front row in 1979 on the Just A Game tour. Rik is as good live as he is on the record. Such a humble, likeable guy too!
I’m jealous! They are a great band.
Have all the records but there is something great about the Just a Game record
@@mikemerck5701 It really is a special recording.
Great reaction! Try the song “When the lights go down” from this same concert. It features the drummer on vocals who’s awesome in his own right! Trust us we Triumph fans know!
Yes. Gil rocks that!
It's so amazing to see someone who is so virtuosic on guitar, yet can still blow the mind of a vocal coach. All at the same time, and make it look so effortless. And give off such a vibe of cool and nice as well.
These are fun reactions to watch. The good news is, Triumph has more songs.
At the risk of piling too much praise on Rik, but he also plays great jazz guitar and classical guitar. He would often have a guitar etude as one of the songs on their albums.
But like you said, I've never heard any guy actually have some rasp in their voice at the pitches he's hitting. It's crazy.
This show took Triumph, already a big name in rock and turned them into absolute mega star Rock & Roll legends. One of the greatest live performances ever
I love the vocalyst's love for triumph. Her smile was so genuine. She loved them from the very first note of the very first song.
SHe cant analyze. She is shaken, obviously
I usually dislike reactions to live performances. Triumph is the one exception. Rik Emmett is one of the few singers that sounds better in a live performance than in a studio. Thanks for shining some light on one of my favorite bands, and these lyrics are so true. The magic power of music is never gonna stop. I'm 60 and I still feel it as much as I did when I was 18.
Yep saw them four times from '78 to '86...Rik was always mind blowing vocalist and guitarist.
There's something Rik did at 15:30 that adds to the dynamics. He turned his head away from the mic and started to sing then turned his head slowly back to the mic giving the effect of a fade in on that perfect beautiful note he sang. Really artful dynamic brilliant singing. While playing guitar at a high level. Very unique
My favorite part of that performance.
@@robbchadwick2793 Mine too it gives me chills every time I hear that part.
I was fortunate enough to see them 3-4 times at their height. Rik was a stand out vocalist and guitar player and still is at 70. Their music was always positive and uplifting and never accentuated excess in any form. I'm one of their biggest fans. Takes me back to younger days for sure. Thanks for the reaction.
We need bands like this, especially these days. Their upbeat messages would probably fall on mostly deaf ears, but it would soothe mine at least.
Yeah I think I saw an interview with Rik a while back and he said back then he realized he had a gift he was given to make music and he loved making music and he didn't want to really waste what he was given, so he never really got into all that excess other bands were getting into. He took care of himself and it showed as he got older. So I think a lot of their music and lyrics echoed the band's outlook on that.
Yeah, his duet acoustic performance of this at Darrel's House from a few years ago is amazing
First concert I ever saw was Triumph, Just a game tour at Landsdowne park. I have led a blessed life. I can still play fantasy serenade ok, I could never get the speed for the cascade part.
Didn't realize they were that old I listened to them in the 80s growing up
Triumph is always uplifting musically and lyrically. There is no dark sad attitudes to any kind of their material. Most people gravitate to music when they are down to be uplifted and Triumph always delivers!!
I saw Triumph back in '86. It was the perfect arena rock experience. Full on light show, incredible sound and musicianship, and yes
Rik's singing was something to behold. So thankful I got to see them while they were still around. Super underrated band.
I’m glad they brought the bass up in the mix. Barely there last two vids
My dad has the same steel slide guitar rik’s side.
Yep..saw them starting in '78 and last time in '86. Rik was mind blowing, as was the entire band and stage production. First became a fan in '77. They were super popular in our high school in southwest Indiana. Saw them first at the old coliseum in downtown Evansville, IN. No opening band...they played for two hours...was awesome!
I listened to Triumph all through high school In the eighties. Their songs are full of positivity. They were great to listen to as a young man making his way.
Same here, but started in '77 to '81 in high school...they were very popular at our high school in southwest Indiana! Been a fan ever since...saw them four times '78 to '86.
Triumph. The beacon of hope. Always positive, and always at the top of the spectrum. They take you on a journey you never want to end…🎤🎤🎸
I'm so glad that you and Elizabeth reminded me how great Triumph was. I was a huge fan in high school but kind of forgot about them. They deserve more recognition.❤
I don't recall Elizabeth (Charismatic Voice) reacting to Triumph... she's missing out. Great for Bethany, she's deservedly getting all the views!
"HOLD ON" Studio version - long version. Can still bring me to tears - and that is without the "Rik" effect (nudge nudge) that you are experiencing in watching him.
Agreed!
Most underrated band I think 🤔 they kick it every performance I’ve always liked them
This is my favorite Triumph song, and one of my favorite outro's of any song ever. I love the dynamics in this tune. It goes from kicking butt, to slowing down, and giving you goose bumps. And Rik's voice, just Wow.
Part IV 😲 HOLY SMOKES his mic proximity technique on the outro " aaahhiiiIIIIiiiiiii got the music"!!! Master Class performance!! Great!! Another regret! Never seen them live either! 😢
It’s rare to find both an amazing guitarist and amazing vocalist at the same time. Well, here he is. Rik Emmett.
Long time Triumph fan. This song made me feel like there was magic in life. Thank you for coming back to this band.
This is my all-time favourite rock song. I can listen to it 50 times of every day, and I will never get sick of it. His voice, the music, the energy, the way it takes me to beyond life and back ... so hard to really explain it.
The cousin of a friend visited my hometown in Georgia back around 1985. He came from Texas and brought with him Triumph’s Allied Forces album, asking if I’d ever heard it. I hadn’t, but I was blown away and still am. It’s one of those perfect albums where every single song is phenomenal, and it started me on my Triumph journey. Can’t say enough good things about them.
Front row in The Omni for the Never Surrender tour. The album after Allied Forces.
I ain't so young and wild anymore, but this song will always lift my mood. Thanks for sharing your knowledge and enthusiasm with us!
Thank you Bethany. We have some of the greatest bands in the world in Canada. What else do we do for 6 months of winter. Triumph, April Wine, The Guess Who, Saga, Harlequin, Prism, Honeymoon Suite, Red Rider, Doug and the Slugs, FM,The Stampeders, BTO, Loverboy, Rush, Aldo Nova,Lighthouse, Kim Mitchell, Streetheart, Chilliwack, The Tragically Hip…… the list goes on and on. Gordon Lightfoot, Burton Cummings, Bryan Adams….Myself being 60, I grew up listening to some of the best music ever🤟🇨🇦🤟🇨🇦🤟🇨🇦🤟🇨🇦🤟🇨🇦🇨🇦. Yes I did edit this to add some more. Can’t believe I left out Prism
The Guess Who 🎉
Big Wreck..Big Sugar
Loverboy would be a good one for her to review next. Man they took the rock world by storm for a few years there.
Glass Tiger!
The Tragically Hip will forever be one of my top 5 bands
Always loved my Canadian power trios: Rush and Triumph. So much good music. Also, it's charming watching you fangirl over Rik all these years later. He was, and still is, an impressive performer; the kind that makes you grin from ear to ear while you watch him have the time of his life up on stage.
The breakdown at the end was not part of the original song. They added that for this performance. I think it just elevates the song to a whole new level of amazing
The breakdown at the end is from a song called "Don't take my life", from their debut album.
Elizabeth, being from Toronto and being a certain age, I had the chance to see them live from the beginning of their career. Gil Moore Triumph's drummer, is also a very good vocalist in his own right. Spellbound, Just One Night,Allied Forces are all good examples. He was the lead singer on nearly half of Triumph's songs.
I'm lucky enough to see them play at L' Amoreaux and Leacock in Scarberia not long apart. Cost less with your SAC card. They started a fire at L'am, and someone started a flood at Leacock. Great times!
Just one Night. Deep cut ballad. Really shows the quality of Gil ‘s voice. Great mention. Always thought that would great in a movie.
I'm 61 now, & hearing Rik singing this with his amazing underrated range, seeing all the young happy carefree people makes me tear up every time.
I'm young, I'm wild, & I'm free...:)
I was a teenage girl in the 80’s who listened to pop music…. most of the time. I found Triumph thanks to MTV. Their videos were not played nearly as often as the more prominent groups, so I would tune in at the top and middle of the hour to hear the “upcoming videos” list. Bought Allied Forces, the current album at the time. My local station wasn’t playing their songs except for Lay it on the Line. So I went down to my local record store and ordered the album “Just a Game” because they didn’t have that one in stock. I loved triumph, and I kept trying to get my friends to listen to them and they wouldn’t but I had the exact same reaction you did listening to this man’s voice. He just mesmerized me.
AND slinging a 15 lbs double neck Gibson!! Rik is a under PRAISED singer for sure! Thanks Bethany!! Peace 🕊️☮️♾️😎
Dude, it's a double necked Yamaha
@@user-hz7bj9ll6i It's actually a IBANEZ! I looked it up and corrected on the Part II 😁
Oops. Rik was known for playing Yamaha guitars. It kinda looks like SBG. Allen. Witch isn't a Gibson
typical Triumph fan. Sticks his head above the crowd to yell out the answer which turns out to be wrong. Kind of like the band itself, trying so hard yet failing at every attempt. Fvkin garbage lyrics, garbage songs, garbage fans.
@@user-hz7bj9ll6i Looks to be a beautiful Ibanez. Can't wait to get home and see it on the 60" screen!!
I'm 50 years old. I've heard their music over the years, but I never really have thought about how great they were as a band. They're one of those bands that sound even better live. Definitely one of my favorite bands of all time now, and I put Rick right up there with the likes of Steve Perry as far as best live vocalist. Loved the reaction and break down.
Your analysis gives me an entire new appreciation for the song and Rik’s vocal capabilities.
I first saw them live at the US Festival 1983. They stood out. Outstanding live performance. Big fan.
Rik was not only a phenomenal vocalist ,but his guitar playing is top notch. as good as it gets.
Such a fan girl. Bethany. Lol. Being a Canadian Prairie boy in his 60s, I get the magic. Thank you for your reactions, my dear. 😊🙏🎶🧚♀🎶
I was just a few feet from the stage.... Best performance of the US festival by far.... A beautiful memory for me.
I love watching your reactions to Triumph!! NEXT You need to do Never Surrender from the same concert.. amazing range on display again!
The entire set was full of magic power. It's one of the best rock performances of that era, in my opinion. I was fortunate to see Triumph 5 times, and they always put on a great show. Great light shows, they were one of the original bands that had the spectacular laser and fireworks at their shows.
Phenomenal reaction as always. I think it’s time to go a little deeper down the rabbit hole. Triumph has two lead singers. 😉
I recommend Follow your Heart and Spellbound. You will fall in love with them…again.
Keep up the great work!!!
🔥👏🏼❤️
I saw Rik perform this by himself at a Yamaha sponsored guitar clinic 2005ish. He chronicled the song writing and inspiration while noodling on the the guitar then led into the song. The first note of the first word 'Something' was like getting hit in the solar plexus with power and emotions. The feeling was physical and almost overwhelming...the Magic Power.
I was there with my friends and 19 year old brother, I was 18, we still talk about it, I can still remember it like it was yesterday, simple times, good times 😊
This is Canada's other power trio, and yes, they are phenomenal.
"Other" meaning......Anvil? 😉
@@albinosquirlz Where as I'll grant that Anvil is a name the citizens of the country may recognize, outside of that not as much. and No. The other is and could only be Rush, of course.
@@metoo7557 most people outside Canada are equally oblivious to any of those bands. This is 2024....most people anywhere are oblivious to a "power trio" period.
@@albinosquirlz What rock are you living under? Rush is known and cherished world wide. Apparently you've never seen the shows they put on worldwide. They sold out shows worldwide, and entire stadiums sing along to their instrumentals. How many bands you know get that? Every single musician and band out of Canada looks up to them. And every single major established band outside of them knows who they are.
You can shh now.
@@metoo7557 yea....we've all seen the Rush In Rio vid. Look....I was born in Toronto and was a teenager in the 70's, so quit pretending to school me on Rush.
Look....Western Civilization is collapsing and musical talent went off a cliff a 1/4 century ago. Seriously....ask the average earthling who their favorite power trio is...they won't even know what you're talking about, let alone name Rush. The vast majority have no clue about Pink Floyd or LED Zep, let alone Rush FFS.
Anyway, my original joke obviously went over your head.
Bethany, I’m glad I stumbled across your videos. I’m a bit too old for vocal coaching so I don’t watch for your technical commentary. But it just warms my heart to see a young person like yourself enraptured by the music that was so important to me in my youth. It really takes me back to when it was new for me too. Thanks.
Another reason why I’m a Proud Canadian ❤️ Triumph
I've walked out of several jobs playing THIS song! I'm young I'm wild and I'm FREE! Forever!
Remember when they played at my high?school in Scarberia? $2. With an SAC card, $1.75. A flashpot started a little fire, the curtains. School smelled like smoke for a week. Good times. A few weeks later at a neighbouring high?school watching Triumph, someone ripped a urinal off the wall and flooded a hallway. I've seen them dozens of times since. Always a good time.
Rik seems to be very accessible. I would not be surprised if he would be willing to be interviewed for your channel.
One of the things I remember was Rik was talking with Steve Perry and Steve said to him "you sing really high." and that's coming from Steve!
Saw the interview...Triumph opened for Journey at the Rose Bowl...Steve asked Rik how he hit those high notes so effortlessly...Rik said he adked Steve the same question. Interview is on CZcams...one of the interviews about his book.
I love watching someone discover this very underrated band. Their positive energy meant a lot to me when I was young.
I hope you've seen some of Rik Emmets more recent videos. How he's modified his vocal techniques to suit his aging and changing voice. He's brilliant, and still amazing. Also, truly seems to be a fantastic human being. I can see the crush you have, and I can understand, as I've had a man-crush on him for forty years. (Who wouldn't?)
It would be very interesting to see the commentary on that.
A lot of talent came out of Canada, Triumph, Rush, The Tragically Hip, The Guess Who, Barenaked Ladies, Bachman Turner Overdrive, April Wine, Blue Rodeo.
How anybody can say these bands are underrated boggles my mind... They might have been overshadowed by American bands during their time...but real Canucks know the truth, all of the listed bands I put here and more definitely got time in the spotlight.
Don't forget Doug and the Slugs. The most fun band to see live. I seen them in Edmonton in the late 80s, they were fantastic.
@@ricandes they were pretty o.k. ..do you remember Nash the Slash, the lead singer with the bandages wrapped around his face used to run the record store in meadowvale town centre in Mississauga Ontario Canada... Actually hung out with him a few times.
Loverboy, Glass Tiger, Leonard Cohen, freaking Céline and the most unjustly ignored band on the planet... The Tea Party.
@@Sigma1_969 yes I remember him very well. I still have a couple of songs on my play list when he was with FM. Phasers on Stun and I can't remember the others. They will come around on my iTunes again sooner or later. We had so many great Canadian bands over the years. I seen Zapacosta in a record store back in the 80s, so cool.
@@piratecat5113 I heard that the Tea Party are working on a new album.
You are giving Rik and the guys the ultimate compliment- you are so enthralled with the performance, you forgot to stop and analyze!
My favorite song with my favorite band! Whenever I am feeling out of sorts, I always listen to this song and it never fails to lift my spirits. I was fortunate enough to meet Rik a few times. He toured by himself and played in the bar where I worked. He was so nice and down to earth. He got a kick out of the fact that Triumph was my first concert! 😊
It's been fun watching you turn into a Triumph groupie. Great reaction! 😊❤
I agree. I seen them in 1987 Dallas for their Sport of Kings tour. My favorite band.
You just made my day. All you say is what I always felt, for 40 years now, listening to Triumph - and Rick Emmett.
Back in the days of long hair and freedom. We did not know how good we had it! I once heard a comedian say "Youth is wasted on the young." That's a little mean, but it has some truth mixed in there. I was never a huge Triumph fan. I know their work. There were so many good bands back then. I saw several great ones!!!! Born at the right time!!!! This was back before the Internet so groups had to get out on the road to get their work out to the masses. Some of these concerts were much more fun than listening to an album. The vocalist is playing a 12 string. COOL....... Thank you Bethany for sharing your knowledge with us mere mortals. You are wonderful........
That day, triumph kicked ass, imo they were the best band that day... everyone get the dvd, i got it and it delivered
The head voice that Rik Emmett chimes in on right at the beginning is so unexpected but also right on the money. As you have keenly observed Bethany, Canada for the Win! 🎵🎸
Enjoyable video and live performance. The shots of the crowd perfectly matched the vibe and lyrics of the song.
Aaaaaaaaaah! The Vocalyst is secretly a Rocker! I knew it! Once you go down the Triumph rabbit hole, ya ain't coming back. Now you what Canadians have known for nearly 50 years....Triumph is one of the greatest bands, period!
I get a chill every time I hear this song! It is so uplifting. I wish the guys would get back together for at least one last tour.
Such a great band. Was so glad I got to see them in my youth. I was even there in Providence RI when they filmed the video for Follow Your Heart. They were like Rush for me. Anytime they came around near me I would go see them. Rik had such an incredible voice, and Gil had such a good voice on the songs he did!
So nice to see others find joy in Triumph. So good and the song truly represents what you do. Songs can bring you to a moment in time and help you forget everything else. Great song and channel.
"But the music's got the magic
It's your one chance for escape"
When a musician loves music and has natural ability, this happens, amazing.
I love how much you love this band. triumph is so underrated. And make no mistake. Rik carried this band, musically. No harm in that, he’s that good. Thanks for doing this!
This is my favorite Triumph song, and that day is one of the best shows I ever got to see, as far as a festival.
I confess that after watching your first two Triumph videos, and knowing this performance, I was eagerly waiting for your analysis of this song - the best in the set.
And you didn't disappoint. I love seeing the elation in your expression, and your obvious enjoyment of the music, as well as the vocals!
FYI, there is a video on you tube of Rik Emmett performing "Magic Power" solo more recently, where he starts off the song, then makes the point that he wrote the song in one key, but now he's forced to sing it in another key - about a fifth lower.
Still a great performer, but 40 years will have that effect on one's vocal range, I guess.
I saw Triumph 3 times in the prime of their heyday in arenas and they were some of the best concerts I've seen out of over 100 shows. Such power passion and precision not to mention sincerity. And saw this entire U.S. Festival on pay per view live in 1983. What legends.
I’ve been a fan of Triumph since 1984. The only thing I love better than listening to their music is listening to other people truly appreciate their pure talent. I was lucky to see them in concert in Cleveland in 1986 with the holographic face. I then saw Rik multiple times as a solo act at the Empire and Agora. One of my best memories is when he broke a string and his guitar tech had trouble fixing. He grabbed an acoustic guitar and took requests for about 20 minutes. Truly an amazing talent and an even more amazing person.
Loved these guys! So talented! Rik’s voice, there are no words.
I've been waiting for this everyday like a kid on Christmas
As a teenager hearing this song always lifted me up! Still one of my favorites today.
This live performance of Magic Power is my favorite! The Ending is the most BEAUTIFUL! Love it! Rik is just an Incredible Performer, Singer, Guitarist ROCK GOD!
Not only they were great musicians but also they had outside talents that really complimented each other, like great marketer or technical studio genius.
So much fun watching you struggle and try to describe Ric's vocals. I think the lack of words speaks volumes on just how special Ric's voice is. For nearly 40 years, I've argued that he is the best singer/guitarist in rock and seeing how much you appreciate his talent is so very refreshing to see. Thank you so very much for your reaction and your knowledge. I didn't think I could appreciate Ric's voice anymore that I have, but I think I do now.
I don't think there is any singer/guitarist who covers all the bases like he can do. Are their better singers? Yes, Better Guitarists? Yes. I just cannot think of any other who can do both at such a high level at the same time, especially live.
Every time I hear this song, I get goosebumps everywhere. Thank you so much. Love this channel and you.❤
I was about 50 feet from the stage when they were playing…respect…
I could hear the excitement in your voice the second the video started and ... me too, me too. Their live stuff just blows me away.
This is exactly what I needed on a Monday morning after a rough weekend... thanks. :)
This song is the one that got me listening to them. I have since heard other songs of theirs I prefer, but this one has a special place in my heart.
One of my favorite songs from Triumph, such uplifting music. Rik Emmett and the crew of Triumph are talented people.
I love your channel and thank you so much for giving new exposure to this great band. The drummer also sings on a significant number of their songs. I highly recommend Time Canon (a cappella) that I believe all 3 of them sing on. It is a short intro to another song, Killing Time, that both Rik and Gil share vocal duties on.
YES!! I am here for this!!! Love how you're just listening and loving the music :)
I just Love watching this your Enthusiasm reminds me of how much I Loved getting to see Triumph Live this tour was their “Never Surrender” Album Tour which you just have to watch them perform the song”Never Surrender” same concert but I remember 2 weeks after this Festival they came to Texas and they were nearly Perfect and the Beautiful part he added to live performance of “Magic Power” at the end of the song was Beautiful! I remember telling anyone I knew after seeing them live so many times I would tell anyone I could tell how Great these Guys were. I have gotten to meet them over the years and the Nicest Guys Rik is just so down to earth and funny He was a Super Star The Drummer is also a Singer on many songs when the 2 sing together there is a particular song you should listen to off The Album “Thunder Seven” the song “Killing Time” Great example not a live video I can find. There is a concert video 1987 which was the last tour unfortunately with Rik “Live in Halifax” You have to to watch”Lay it on The Line” changes that up some funny thing when they first got together and first recorded the album cover had made mistake and changed spelling of Rick’s name to Rik to much trouble changing back I know You will like even more of these songs. I sound like a Promoter first time I heard them I couldn’t change tapes kept listening on the way to a Music Festival and I was just 16 years old and as soon as I got home I called our local Rock station and DJ had not heard I went out bought 2 copies of their album Just A Game and gave one to DJ at radio station that station still plays a song from that album. You are doing Absolutely Awesome! This was Fun again!
Being into Triumph back when they were new definitely made you feel their 'Magic Power.'
The best power trio in the history of rock and roll. Not even close. Cased close. Prove me wrong. Not possible.
