Well done cassette. Very much enjoyed this Walrus and it offered me some relief to know that some other poor bastard was going through the anguish of hosting at the same time as I was.

Being in last place by more points than I earned has to be a badge, right? Should’ve submitted DMX for the pump up category, definitely needed to think harder on that one.
Also I feel like micro is exaggerating how old he is with that submission but haven’t done the math. I feel like Chuck Berry was making music when my dad was in high school.
Oh and grat jalfrezi

Micro is a couple of years younger than me, so you’re right.
Man, to come in to your first Walrus and play at a Pyatnitski level is something I don’t think I’ve seen before. Jalfrezi wins on the scorecard, but you’ve won our hearts.

Hear hear, @seities!
Although it saddens me that even in stark times like these we can’t get many of our forum peers to pull their attention away from frivolities like the So-Called Impeachment Hoax and onto something as momentous as this Walrus.

It only had to be a song you LIKED in high school.

Now I’ve got my first gold disc by selling out everything I ever stood for I’ll go back to my roots and pick lots of long and bizarre tracks that will drive everyone to desperation again.

I think it’s possible your bottom 3 in this category would have been my top 3. Go figure.
I thought you were Canadian, how do you now know April Wine? The bad news for your potential deep dive is that they have 16 studio albums starting in 1971. The good news is you can probably skip to 1981’s Nature of the Beast and not miss too much. While researching the answer to your question (answer: drum solo!), I found this live version of another great track from that album. They look like dorks so maybe that’s why they never quite broke through.
Thanks for hosting!

I notice I’m the only one with a slope of improvement of >=0 from entry to entry, so like a fine wine I guess

This was my first Walrus graded to completion.
I feel tired and used.
