The Wonderful Grand Band (1978) Living In A Fog N/A

Living in a Fog is the second and final studio release by The Wonderful Grand Band. It is undoubtedly their most popular album and is an icon of Newfoundland culture. It's downhome style is characteristic of Newfoundland life. While some of the songs on the album contain a recognizable comedy that is unique to the band, there are several more serious tracks on the album as well. One of the most commonly played songs being "Babylon Mall", which appeared in TV spots for the Avalon Mall, located in St. John's. As well, "Sonny's Dream", is an example of the less comedic side of the album and is still performed by Ron Hynes at shows today.
