Doug and the Slugs -- The Vault

Welcome to "The Vault."  You'll get the scoop on the phenomena and antics of Doug and the Slugs during their rise to the top in the Canadian Music Industry. This history is incomplete, but it's only the start. It will be ... hate to say it ... "under construction" for a while. But please enjoy the first few pages. The following material was all provided by the former band members, with the help of their friend Sue Leon. Please take the time to read through .. and enjoy your trip through The Vault.

The Vault -- Doug and the Slugs 1977 to 1995 Join John Burton (guitar), Richard Baker (guitar), Steve Bosley (bass), Simon Kendall (keys), Wally Watson (drums) and Doug Bennett (vocals) on a whirlwind tour of the humble beginning, the gigs, the recordings, the national and international recognition and Gold album awards. 

Remember, this is a story in pictures and prose -- so some of the files may take some time downloading, but they're worth the wait!  Hover your mouse pointer over the pictures for details and dates.

Special thanks to Kay Bosley. (Steve's mother.) She helped gather these treasures through the years with love & devotion. Much appreciation goes out to John, Steve, Richard, Wally & Simon for their contributions & for being so patient.
