WILD 'T' & THE SPIRIT ROCK DOWN "ELECTRIC AVENUE"
WITH EDDIE GRANT
It was one of those nights. The club was packed. The band was smokin'. The audience was rockin'. And then it got even better. The club was RPM in Toronto. 1200 people were rockin' with Wild 'T' & The Spirit who were playing songs from their new album, Givin' Blood. For the band's encore, Eddie Grant jumped up on stage with the band and together they ripped through a house shakin' jam of Grant's "Electric Avenue". The band is pictured here with Grant after their set.
Danny Bilan, Eddie Grant, Wild 'T' and Nazeem Lakay.
