[Alberta's Child]

Pinging to those from the previous threads. Back in 1990, this one wouldn't have even been among my Top 250. Something clicked in my mind over it when I heard it once while traveling in Alberta, and it's been a favorite of mine ever since. The guitar tracks on this one are exceptional. This may be the most overrated song from the 1980s.

To this day, I can't hear it without instantly being brought back to a trip south out of downtown Calgary on Macleod Trail late on a November Friday night. A light snow fell and the lights and sounds of the legendary Ranchman's Saloon were saying a fond farewell as I drove past it for the last time until my next trip out there.

Let me know if you'd like to be added or removed from the ping list!

Love this song. That’s all I’ve got!
