Covering
its most lucrative years, April Wine's Greatest Hits compiles all of
this Montreal-based band's material from the '70s, made up of power
ballads and hard rock songs. Founder and lead singer Myles Goodwyn
pilots the group in both the slow stuff and the guitar-driven tunes, and
his obliging voice takes full control of each type. Both "Roller" and
"You Could Have Been a Lady" broke Billboard's Top 40 charts, but this
collection has many other redeeming factors, especially in the sock hop
innocence of "You Won't Dance With Me" or the coarseness of "Weeping
Widow." As pure as guitar rock gets, April Wine's repertoire may have
been taken straight out of the rock & roll handbook with run-of-
the-mill electric and bass guitar rhythms and a steady drumbeat keeping
time all the while, but its energy and exuberance were right up there
with bands like Journey and Foreigner, only its popularity wasn't.
Gracing many a high school dance were ballads like "I'm on Fire for You
Baby" and "Like a Lover, Like a Song," which are still played on
Canadian radio every now and then. April Wine has numerous compilations
within its catalog, but this set gratifyingly isolates its earliest and
best efforts and is also an easy
