United Boulevard Launch
By: R&O on: Dec 24,2010 In: Arts, Business, Entertainment, Events, Food, Of InterestSome time ago I was scouring the internet for a list of furniture stores on United Boulevard in Coquitlam, the area commonly referred to as Mecca for buyers looking for great selection and loads of deals) but I couldn’t find a comprehensive list or, better yet, a web site to help me with my search. The tiny gears in my head started spinning.
The Lynn Canyon Band visited our home a few weeks ago to record a few demo tracks and the results are below for your aural stimulation. Keep in mind that these tunes were recorded on only 8 tracks and we didn’t have the luxury of a soundproof room or any of the other accoutrement associated with a modern recording studio. But I have to say that the results were better than we expected but you be the judge by clicking the play buttons below listen.
