The year was 1965 and the British Invasion which was well underway in Winnipeg. The Beatles and others had forced all the Winnipeg bands to change their sound and with that new sound came a new dream. Got to get a record deal!
The Guess Who were the first ones to get one, followed by my band, and then The Deverons with a kid named Burton Cummings. (Neil Young was still a year away)
On the links below are some rare radio airchecks of Chuck Dann, and Jimmy Darin of CKY in Winnipeg who are playing The Jury on their respective radio shows. (pictured together above)
The first link is Chuck Dann in the winter of ’65 playing our first release, “Until You Do” The next is Jimmy Darin playing our third release, “Back In My World.”
