Customer Reviews for Stand Back
Goodwyn one of rock's great songwriters
Rating:
When not out buying records, I would often go to a shop like Don's Discs in Thornton, Colorado, and just look at LPs and covers by my favorite bands. I was always amazed at how many albums April Wine released before "Roller" and "I Like to Rock" broke in America in the late 70s. At random I selected the Stand Back LP from this group of early records and was not disappointed; the album contains several terrific songs, two of which are "Oowatanite" and "Tonite Is a Wonderful Time to Fall in Love." Listening to "Wonderful Time" now (along with its 1994 update on the Frigate CD), I'm more convinced than ever that Myles Goodwyn is (and always was) one of rock's great songwriters.

April Wine's First Self-Produced CD Is Also Their First Masterpiece
Rating:
STAND BACK, the first April Wine album that the band produced themselves, is also their first masterpiece. The album features several fine rockers, including "Oowatanite", "Don't Push Me Around", "Victim For Your Love", "Cum Hear The Band", the lovely "Tonite Is A Wonderful Time To Fall In Love", and the angry "Not For You, Not For Rock And Roll." The latter could, in the wake of leader Myles Goodwyn's opposition to Indonesia's trumped-up 2005 drug-smuggling conviction of a young Australian tourist, be seen as a guy saying he'll never fall victim to the temptation to wear clothing made in Indonesia for any reason, even if it means disappointing the woman he loves or looking totally out of style. The same could be said of "Don't Push Me Around." This is a wonderful CD that shouldn't be passed up under any circumstances.
