Wyld Canada!

Mal Thursday heads up to the Great White North to bring you a very special episode featuring some of the wyldest Canadian rock 'n' roll records ever made. Inspired by the "Wyld Canada" compilations put together by BossHoss66 a.k.a Australian garage maniac Mark Taylor, formerly of The Lipstick Killers, among other bands, and creator of the G45 countdown of the greatest teenbeat records of all time. Mal grew up on the New York side of the Canadian border, just across the St. Lawrence River from fragrant Cornwall, Ontario, and spent a lot of time in Montreal during his wayward youth. Please excuse his mispronunciation of various French words in this episode. Presented in Ultrasonic Stereophonic and Living Monophonic Sound. Originally broadcast 17 July 2025.
