Thus April Wine, Max Webster mentioned as Canucks of note.
No I get that. I just don't hear them as being quite as Rock (or should that be Raaaaawk?) as BOC and Aeorsmith. The albums I have are a little bit Tubes a little bit Queen a little bit Tull a little bit Boston a little bit Steely Dan.
Are we talking Max Webster here, they certainly don't Rawk in the Aerosmith manner, more angular and choppy

Yes Max Webster. They had some style changes over the albums I have but choppy is a good word. Very first Tubes album one minute then they'll veer off into some horrible Michael Franks style ballad.
This is more how I know them ...

not heard that one, quite enjoyable, I've A Million Vacations and Mutiny Up My Sleeve tucked away somewhere, they were support to Rush in '79 which I imagine was their UK peak, didn't they have a disastrous Reading Festival appearance about then or am I thinking of someone else
