Eight Point Five (2)

From Bathurst, New Brunswick. Members (left to right in photo) : Bernie Arseneau - Bass guitar, vocal and songwriter; Paul Cormier - Drums; Bob Russel - Lead Guitar, vocal and songwriter; Robert (Buck) Hebert - Lead vocal; Jerry Duguay - Keyboards & harmony. This band was chosen by Denis Ménard, DJ at CKBC in Bathurst New Brunswick, who had won an award allowing him to bring a band to the studios of André Perry in Montreal. A supporting tour was awarded as part of the prize, but the band needed signed approval of all parents, some of whom refused feeling that a tour might hinder the boys' education.
