Vida!... is the third album by Kon Kan, released only in Canada in 1993 by Hypnotic Records (a subsidiary of A&M Records).
Two singles were released from the album: "Sinful Wishes" and "S.O.L.", the latter a collaboration with Crash Morgan (who died in 1995 after suffering a heart attack on stage whilst performing with the Canadian rock band Big Sugar).[1]
"Move to Move (Revisited)" is an updated version of "Move to Move" from Kon Kan's first album, Move to Move.
"January Man" features Coney Hatch guitarist Carl Dixon on mandolin.
Barry Harris and drummer Anton Cook later reunited in the band Sick Seconds in 2011. They released their self-titled debut album Sick Seconds, in March 2013.
In April 2020, Harris re-released Vida!... worldwide digitally with additional previously unreleased remixes.[2]
