Album Notes & Community Reviews

As the quirky, fiercely talented counterparts to their touring mates Rush, Max Webster established their distinct identity on 'High Class in Borrowed Shoes'. The Canadian quartet injects jagged, unconventional progressive rock arrangements into a muscular, highly melodic hard rock framework. Frontman Kim Mitchell's eccentric guitar work and eccentric vocal delivery solidified the band's revered cult status in North America.
