1001 Other Albums<p>Beverly Glenn-Copeland – Beverly Copeland (1970, Canada)</p><p>Because we need a bit more Canadian content - and because now (as always) is the perfect time to celebrate and support our brilliant trans artists - our next spotlight is on number 478 on The List, submitted by myself. This is the stunning dark folk/modal jazz debut album from Glenn Copeland (recording under the name Beverly Glenn-Copeland), who enjoyed a late but much deserved spotlight a few years ago when his 1986 new age/early techno electronic album Keyboard Fantasies fell into the hands of a record collector and shop owner in Japan.</p><p>Want to read more?

1001 Other Albums<p><strong>Beverly Glenn-Copeland – Beverly Copeland (1970,&nbsp;Canada)</strong></p><p>I know we just had two spotlights from Canadian artists, but I think we need a bit more Canadian content before moving on. More importantly though, now (as always) is the perfect time to celebrate and support our brilliant trans artists. And so, our next spotlight is on number 478 on <a href="https://1001otheralbums.com/the-list/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">The List</a>, submitted by myself (buffyleigh).</p><p>I didn’t learn about Glenn Copeland – who records under the name Beverly Glenn-Copeland[1] – until we were compiling The List roughly a year ago. Other Mastodonians, as per usual, were more informed than I, many of them knowing Glenn from either the 2019 documentary <em>Keyboard Fantasies: The Beverly Glenn-Copeland Story</em>, or from his 25 years of acting on the Canadian children’s show, <em>Mr. Dressup</em> (I of course watched that show as a kid, but, what can I say, I only had eyes for Finnegan).</p><p>I can’t remember why I first stumbled upon Glenn’s debut album, but I was absolutely blown away by his voice. It’s just so emotive and captivating, with a fantastic classical range (Glenn was trained in the German vocal tradition of Lieder singing, and studied classical vocals at McGill University). The album was an instant purchase for me (as was his newest, the 2023 <em><a href="https://beverlyglenn-copeland.bandcamp.com/album/the-ones-ahead" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">The Ones Ahead</a></em>), and I immediately added it to The List. But, as I am unfortunately wont to do, I then failed to check out the rest of Glenn’s discography, and have only been listening to his first and last albums since.</p><p>Until now. As I’m writing this, for the first (and second) time I’m listening to Glenn’s most well-known album, <em><a href="https://beverlyglenn-copeland.bandcamp.com/album/keyboard-fantasies" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Keyboard Fantasies</a></em> (1986), which is incredibly different from his first and last albums. While the debut lives in the realms of dark folk and modal jazz, <em>Keyboard Fantasies</em> is exactly what it says on the box – beautiful, dreamy keyboard-focused new age/early techno electronic music. Created with a Yamaha DX7 synthesizer, a Roland TR-707 drum machine, and an Atari computer, Glenn self-released the album on cassette in a small run (100 or 200 tapes). It then took nearly 30 years for the album to gain attention. </p><p>In 2015 or 2016, Ryota Masuko, owner of a specialty Japanese record store (<a href="https://www.sheyeye.com/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">SHE Ye,Ye Records</a>) in Niigata, somehow stumbled upon <em>Keyboard Fantasies</em> and emailed Glenn to ask if he had any copies left. Glenn sent Ryota all he had and, via promoting on their website and in their shop, Ryota quickly sold all of them. And those copies reached the right hands, as Glenn was soon contacted by various record labels, snowballing into a flurry of activity including the album reissue (which Swedish pop musician Robyn wrote the liner notes for), an international tour, the aforementioned documentary, a remix album called <em><a href="https://beverlyglenn-copeland.bandcamp.com/album/keyboard-fantasies-reimagined" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Keyboard Fantasies Reimagined</a></em> (that includes contributions from artists such as Bon Iver, Arca, and Jeremy Dutcher!), and features in many prominent magazines, etc. </p><p>If I had clued in sooner, I perhaps would’ve added <em>Keyboard Fantasies </em>rather than the debut album to The List, given that it has such a great story behind it. But, perhaps not; the debut is and remains an absolute stunner even alongside the somewhat cult-status <em>Keyboard Fantasies</em>, and it encapsulates this beautiful soul so well. But the beauty of The List is that it serves both to highlight fantastic individual albums <em>and</em> to urge those who are curious to dig further into the artist’s discography. And so, here we are, and, after a bit of a delay, my digging has now commenced. </p><p>And I hope your digging will now too, if you aren’t yet familiar with this artist! In addition to checking out the various sounds Glenn has put out into the world (see also his tracks on last year’s stunning <em><a href="https://redhot.bandcamp.com/album/tra-a" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">TRAИƧA</a></em> compilation!), learning more about him is really an absolutely lovely rabbit hole to go down, so I highly recommend spending some time doing so.

1001 Other Albums<p><strong>k.d. lang – Hymns of the 49th Parallel (2004,&nbsp;Canada)</strong></p><p>Our next spotlight is on number 522 on <a href="https://1001otheralbums.com/the-list/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">The List</a>, submitted by swordgeek.</p><p>k.d. lang is a Canadian icon from my very own hometown (Edmonton, Alberta) whose varied discography includes country, pop, soft rock, jazz, blues, rockabilly, and folk. If you know anything about Alberta, it will likely come as no surprise that lang, even after having gained international recognition, Grammy awards, a sign in the town where she grew up (Consort), etc., was banned on local radio after her 1990 “Meat Stinks” PETA campaign, if not also after coming out as a lesbian in 1992. The province has since at least started to atone for their sins, as in 2013 the Edmonton-based Alberta Ballet put on “<a href="https://ottawa.citynews.ca/2013/05/09/a-prairie-love-story-alberta-ballet-pays-tribute-to-singer-k-d-lang/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Balletlujah</a>!”, a production honouring lang via an artistic-take on her upbringing in the province, complete with a gay love story. A documentary of the same name by the CBC was also released in 2015, celebrating both the artist and the ballet. Perhaps there’s hope for this province yet.</p><p>The album we’re looking at here, lang’s 6th solo LP, is primarily composed of covers. lang had a couple previous covers albums (her 1988 debut <em><a href="https://album.link/ca/i/413929065" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Shadowland</a></em> and the 1997 <em><a href="https://album.link/ca/i/281704888" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Drag</a></em>), but this one is a loving tribute to Canada, the title referring to the latitude line that essentially makes up the Canada/US border and the songs all written by Canadians (Bruce Cockburn, Leonard Cohen, Joni Mitchell, Ron Sexsmith, Jane Siberry, Neil Young, plus one by lang herself).

bgrier 🇨🇦 🍁<p>April Wine – The Whole World's Goin' Crazy</p><p>Label: Aquarius Records (3) – AQR 510<br>Format: Vinyl, LP, Album<br>Country: Canada<br>Released: Mar 15, 1976<br>Genre: Rock<br>Style: Hard Rock, Blues Rock</p><p>Seemed like an appropriate spin for the first LP of the morning. Another of my record fair finds from last fall.</p><p>They were a bit before my time, and I wasn't into the harder side of rock back then, but man, there's some good stuff I missed out on here. Wisdom with age, etc, yada, yada.</p><p>The album was the first in Canadian history to have platinum advanced sales orders - platinum before it hit the shelves... cool.</p><p><a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/NowSpinning" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>NowSpinning</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/Music" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Music</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/Vinyl" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Vinyl</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/Records" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Records</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/Rock" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Rock</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/AprilWine" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>AprilWine</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/CanadianMusic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>CanadianMusic</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/Canada" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Canada</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/NowPlaying" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>NowPlaying</span></a></p>

Carolyn<p>Where are the bagpipes you ask? Rawlins Cross, a Maritime group, has you covered. :)</p><p>This was a big song for them but I couldn't find an official video for it. However, I think I like this live performance more. It is 100% certified Canadian, and you cannot beat the joy and energy of a band playing in the snow, in their parkas and toques. Some of the jumping may be to keep warm. :)</p><p><a href="https://youtu.be/hO2Gh8XmXIQ" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="">youtu.be/hO2Gh8XmXIQ</span><span class="invisible"></span></a></p><p><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/CanadianMusic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>CanadianMusic</span></a></p>
