"Fly," "Poor Boy" and "Northern Sky" i.e. the mid-section of side t...

  Artist: April Wine Title:  First Glance Label: Capitol Format: LP Catalog Number: SW-11852 Year of Release: 1978 Country and Year  of Edition: US 1978 Jacksonville Sell Price: $6.31 Sell Date: 2/6/26 Condition: VG+/VG+ Discogs Last Sold: 9/22/25 VG/VG $4.00 Low: $1.89 Median: $5.00 Average: $5.50 High: $12.79 Current  low price:  $0.50 G/G+, VG+/G+ $2.99 Current Number on  Sale at Discogs: 21 Have/Want: 459/32 Where Sold: Owosso, MI Time It Took  To Sell:  4 years Where and When  Bought: Facebook $3 lot Gwiz-gau Letter Grade: B+ Sad To See  It Go: No April Wine's 7th album was Canadian Gold (50,000) and the bands US breakthrough with a bonafide AOR hit, "Roller."  I somehow didn't remember hearing "Roller" on Worcester radio, maybe it was a bigger hit in the Midwest.  The hits after this album in the first half of the 80's were inescapable. Anyway, First Glance is pretty damn good start to finish.  There are some ballads...
