Rocko VaugeoisOne Horse Blue was a Canadian country music group recently composed of Gord Maxwell (lead vocals, bass guitar), Larry Pink (keyboards), Michael Shellard (background vocals, and Rocko Vaugeois (drums, background vocals). Originally formed in 1975 in Edmonton, Alberta with members Winston Quelch, Bob Burghardt, Randy Lloyd, Michael Shellard, Ian Oscar and Ron Vaugeois, the band was active between 1979 and 1980, and again in the 1990s. They charted several singles on the RPM Top Country Tracks charts and recorded four albums before disbanding in 1981.[1]
By 1993, Shellard and Maxwell had reformed the band, with Jim Foster taking over on guitar.[2] This new lineup produced a fifth album, as well as two Number One hits in "Hopeless Love" and "Bringing Back Your Love", both from 1995.
