L'Esprit
Настоящее имя: L'Esprit
"L'esprit" was a yearly battle of the bands competition held by Montreal, Canada's leading rock radio station, 97.7 CHOM-FM. The radio station's slogan are "The Spirit Of Rock" and "The Spirit Of Montreal", hence where the word "L'esprit" (French for "Spirit") came from. The contest was started in 1978. In 1989, "Made In Canada" host "TooTall" (Robert Wagenaar) used the name "Homegrown Music Search". After two years under that name, TooTall renamed it "Rock Showdown" for the 1991 edition, and then "Music Quest" in 1992. In 1993 it was renamed "L'esprit" and it remained as so for the next 11 years until 2003 when the 25th Anniversary edition CD was released (this would be the last in the Series).
