Myles Goodwyn (album)

Myles Goodwyn is the debut studio album by Canadian musician Myles Goodwyn, who was the frontman and co-founder of the moderately successful and popular rock band April Wine.[1][2] Released in 1988, two alternate versions of the album exist with a reissue having been released with different album cover art from that of the original. Another notable difference found on the reissued version was that "Sonya", track #4 on the original release, was retitled "My Girl";[3][4] the song's co-writer Jeff Paris had released the song as "My Girl" two years prior on his debut solo album, Race to Paradise.[5][6] Tracks 8 and 9 are switched on the reissued version as well.
