Inside Trax February 22, 2008


During the 1990's, Valdemar Horsdal (Valdy) hosted a tv show called "Inside Trax" featuring up and coming Canadian talent. Todays update features a clip from that series with Valdy promoting a Victoria band "Playground Hero". Our thanks to Jack Jaz for digging up this most recent treasure.
