Ian Thomas

The Runner

Genre: Canadian Soft Rock

3.25 out of 5




Highlights:

Runner



I can taste the end. You know I know? 

We are doing albums by the younger brother of Dave (Doug Mackenzie) Thomas. 

This guy wrote the theme song to “Strange Brew”. That’s not a good movie. 

He performed a couple of these tunes on SCTV.

That soft rock sound our summers in the late 70s and early 80s is what you’ll find here.

Manfred Mann would have a pretty big hit with Thomas’ “Runner”. Which is amazing since the track is really dull here.
