Triumph is a Canadian hard rock band that was popular in the late 1970s and the 1980s, building on its reputation and success as a live band. Between the band’s 16 albums and DVDs, Triumph has received 18 gold and 9 platinum awards in Canada and the United States. Triumph was nominated for multiple Juno Awards, including Group of the Year Award in 1979, 1985, 1986 and 1987.
Triumph is most known for its guitar-driven rock songs, such as “Lay It on the Line”, “Magic Power”, “Fight the Good Fight” and “World of Fantasy.” The band was formed by Toronto music veterans Gil Moore (drums, vocals), Mike Levine (bass, keyboards), and Rik Emmett (guitar, vocals) in 1975. This lineup, spanning nine studio albums, lasted until 1988 when Emmett left the band to pursue a solo career. He was replaced by Phil “X” Xenedis, and Triumph recorded only one album with him, which remains their last to date, before going on indefinite hiatus in 1993. The classic original lineup of Moore, Levine, and Emmett reunited for two live concerts in 2008.
For me, Trumiph remains one my favorite bands and never thought they really got their due. Here is one my favorite songs by them.
