Ultra-rare! Triumph live at Canada Jam - Mosport Park - 1978
Toronto rock band Triumph on August 26th, 1978 in front of 110,000 people at Mosport Park near Bowmanville, Ontario, for Canada Jam (a full-day festival which featured the most bizarre concert line-up of all time, including the Commodores, Doobie Brothers, Village People, Kansas, Johnny Winter and more). This is a very rare early video of Triumph (shot two months after their "Live at the Forum" show at Ontario Place Forum). Unfortunately this broadcast showed only one song, Rocky Mountain Way, plus the drum solo. The rest of the concert has never been seen and probably does not exist (though a great audio soundboard bootleg of the show has survived). This is Triumph as they were ascending into stardom. Rik Emmett, Gil Moore and Mike Levine. They closed the show, their last song finishing at 3:35 a.m.! Most of the crowd remained right to the end.

Kansas - Point Of Know Return live at Canada Jam 1978 (remaster)
Rare live video of the original 6 Kansas members during their prime years playing their hit single Point Of Know Return. It's not up to par with the Dust In The Wind footage, but it's the best that is available and I did some remastering to make it more enjoyable. I think many will agree it's about time the entire Canada Jam set gets a proper release on DVD. In the meantime: enjoy this one!
The band:
Kerry Livgren
Steve Walsh
Robby Steinhardt
Dave Hope
Rich Williams
Phil Ehart
This was recorded on 1978-08-26.
Ozark Mountain Daredevils - Jackie Blue 1978
Live in Ontario on August 26th, 1978 at Canada Jam. Enjoy!!
Kansas - Song For America live at Canada Jam 1978 (remaster)
While the image quality still isn't the best, the audio is... This was the opening track from their well-known Canada Jam performance on Aug. 26th, 1978. Special note: Steve's vocal performance on this is out of this world! It's about time the full recording of this show surfaces and gets a proper release on DVD.
Kansas at this point in time still is:
Kerry Livgren
