Was it you who recommended the TVO documentary "CFNY: The Spirit of Radio" a few months ago? I thoroughly enjoyed that...

Just discovered that TVO did a documentary on CFNY.

I loved CFNY. It was fabulous. That said, a few years later it started to kinda drift from its alternative roots. So I switched to CKLN 88.1. And it was great for quite a few years until it imploded. But, there still is CIUT 89.5.

Anyway, here's the site for the documentary. I'll likely watch it tomorrow.

CFNY: The Spirit of Radio | TVO Docs

"In 1976, CFNY launched in a small suburban house just north of Toronto and went on to become one of the most influential punk, new wave and alternative radio stations in the world.”

This #documentary will be a must-see for fans of the heyday of #CFNY #radio. I remember for me in the 80s and 90s, 102.1 was the only station to which I would listen. #music #Toronto

So, apropos of nothing, there was a song I heard in the 80s, probably on #CFNY in #Toronto, called "No Peace Until the Spaceships Come." (I may have even owned the cassette?). But I can find no evidence of it on the internet, other than google autocompleting my search so I know I'm not the only one looking for it. I think the band had a horn section? Anyone have a band name or a memory of this? (Tagging @roland , who apparently also listened to CFNY in the 80s)
