    Not too familiar with them except they've been around for awhile and have that one song, "Who Taught You To Live Like That"

    Huh, I always thought that if Sloan had a that one song it would be Money City Maniacs. It's the only Sloan song that I recognized when I started listening to them in 05.

    hmmm always thought Who taught was their biggest hit. Apparently it didn't even make the billboard charts. The one radio station near me played that song a lot that year.

    I've heard it and think Chris and Jay's sides are the best. Andrew's side is ambitious (17-minute song), but not particularly memorable. Patrick's side is his typical songwriting, but not bad.

    Sloan's EP Hit & Run being issued on vinyl for first time. including a 6 bonus track "Get Out Of Bed". first 300 on yellow transluscent vinyl. I didn't buy it, as with shipping it comes to a staggeing $32 US. But some vinyl freaks might want it.

    hey @nippleholic, do you have any of their digital releases? I bought B sides Win and Hardcore Covers and the Hit and Run EP, all of which (I think) come with digital booklets. In a pc crash, I lost 3 tracks off B Sides, and all the digital books. Can ya help a brother out? I really don't want to have to re-purchase all of it just to get the books. I reached out to the band with no response.

    I have some Sloan stuff, not sure if I've got what you're looking for. I'll take a look when I get a chance over the next few days, been a busy week.

    Not a big fan of the last few albums, but the double cross album was good. 
    I find most of their albums have a few good songs and a lot of mediocre filler. 
    Navey Blues was good 
    and 
    one chord to another

    I remember watching Much Music back in the '90s and Sloan was on all the time. Same with OLP for that matter. Best music channel ever. I also liked how they pronounced the van in Nirvana like van down by the river. Not sure if that's a Canadian dialect or not.

    This was an album for me in the 90’s. Love it. Box set is pricy though and in US funds. Not sure I’ll bite on this one. The CD will have to do.
