2. Blue Rodeo

“Till I am Myself Again”

Love these guys. Another entry from a great band. This song is off Casino, recorded in 1990.

” It’s Not Funny Anymore”

Crash Vegas was a Canadian folk-rock band from the late 1980’s. It has a connection to Blue Rodeo in that Greg Keelor, the other singer and songwriter for Blue Rodeo was one of the founding members. He left the band before they had recorded anything. This song is from their 1989 record, “Red Earth”. The quality of the clip is lacking and I apologize. Could not find anything better.
