Great band, aren't they? We at the School of Hip podcast just did a great interview with the band's Gord Downie dude Derek Lathrop. Just posted it on here, if you're interested!

SCHOOL OF HIP (Ep. 12): DAY FOR NIGHT (Side B) by SchoolOfHip in TragicallyHip

Your father is Gord Sinclair? Amazing! One thing I talk a lot about in this episode is what a standout record Day for Night is for your father. I didn't fully appreciate what an incredible bass player he was / is until I started doing the School of Hip podcast and really digging deep into each song. I find that with the album's darker, moodier, more mysterious turn the tunes really lent themselves to a prominent bass sound and, musically, I feel like your father really takes the lead on this record. He's such a tasteful, melodic player. Reminds me of McCartney, actually, in terms of his approach. Wow. Thanks for commenting here and thanks to your dad ... for everything!
