I have these songs from a cd a purchased on ebay. I really liked both songs. Gil's vocals on "Got To Get You Back..." are excellent!!  I think people who are Triumph fans but don't know these songs will be surprised!

Thoses songs are good. Can we expect them to be issue on a official record (maybe a box set of rarity and b-sides)? I just can't find them in bootleg....and Triumph do not receive money from bootleg, so I don't really enjoy buying them. Got to have them because I'm a completist and LOVE all Triumph music.

Hope you'll be back soon.

I used to have a few Triumph records. One of my favorites was It's Just a Game. I would have enjoyed seeing you live.
My dream since 6 years old was to be a Stuntman. I was born in Tornto and have been doing stunts since 1991. My priority now is building a custom airbag for a 350 foot fall from a helicopter to set a world record for Down Syndrome. Maybe we can do the fall at Skydome and you fellas can play.
Thanks for the memories guys.

I met  Rik Emmett in Ocala Florida (Network Show) on 3/9/02, and asked Rik if there was ever going to reunite Triumph and he said "No way in hell" ! I glad he did decide to do it and I hope a tour will follow after the Sweden shows. Triumph in the 80's was my alltime fav. band, After the breakup I was jonesing for more Triumph tunes, but was glad Rik had great solo career and hope he continues to do solo projects in the future. I also told him to tell Myles Goodwin (April Wine) that we southern rocker love Canadian Rock and tour southeast USA more often. So in short this Reunited thing blows me away. I havn't heard the cd yet but plan on getting it today. Keep on Rockin' Rik, Gil and Mike,

Hi Gil,
I have been a fan for over 30 years and this is the first time I have heard *Hobo* and *Got to get you into my life*, they are great! I will for sure try to track them down for my collection.
You sure have quite the awsome voice and your voice combined with Rik*s is what makes your songs such a hit!
By the way, luv ya* too Mike as it would not be Triumph without you...it does take all 3 of you!
Thanx for the memories and hope to have more in the future!
Will be waiting for a Canadian tour...
Your #1 fan always

I was a student at SCS when Triumph played for the first time. We used to get some pretty good bands for our school dances, A Foot In Cold Water, Lighthouse to name a couple. But Triumph blew us all away with the music and the show. I wonder, would Rik, Gil and Mike like to play at SCS once again for old times' sake?
