They got together in 1965 as a Rolling Stones attitude band with one of them in a Brian Jones haircut and the lead vocals approxiamating Mick Jagger. After releasing their first hit, “Nothin’”, they were one of many bands who got to open for the Stones at Maple Leaf Gardens before 15,000 fans. She Ain’t No Use To Me was a good followup but it wasn’t until they released Gaslight in 1967 that they hit the number one spot in Canada. In 1968 Yorkville Records released the band's debut album, 'Somewhere Outside', and Mick Jagger proclaimed The Ugly Ducklings as "my favourite Canadian band". The trouble was, they had already disbanded.

Recorded from the International Space Station by Paul Mills
Recorded on Earth at a studio in Toronto
Mastered by Emily Lazar at The LodgeThe question is: is it CanCon? Coz it was recorded, partially, from the International Space Station. Of course, the back up band were recorded in an earthly studio in Toronto. On this track Commander Hadfield only sang the song; on some of the tracks he also plays guitar. Hadfield said that zero gravity played havoc with everything from holding a guitar stable to singing properly.
"The producer who was helping me, Paul Mills, said: 'Your guitar playing is a little messy.' I said, yeah, you come up here and play guitar," Hadfield told The Globe and Mail. He also explained that zero-gravity caused a build-up of fluid in the head, leading to a swelling of the tongue and vocal cords.
Recording for many of the album's tracks was done in Hadfield's tiny sleeping pod. Using a microphone plugged into his iPad, the Canadian astronaut used a slim Larrivee Parlor acoustic guitar to allow him to play in such tight confines.
And after tinkering with a number of recording methods, he ended up using his laptop and Apple's GarageBand to record himself singing and strumming his Canadian-made guitar. Paul Mills then had to retrieve the data files downloaded by NASA. Hadfield served as Commander of the International Space Station over a period of 144 days in space; his third space mission.

The Asteroids were formed in 1957 by Mel Clark, Jon Everett (Dov Ivry) and Alan Reid. They were 16 years old. When the Sputnik went up not long after, they sat down and wrote their first song, Satellite. Blast off was the first Rodeo Records, basically a C&W label, release of rock n roll.
