Getting around to some BTO! People told us has some of the same people from The Guess Who, most notably the guitarist! Let us know if you enjoyed this video and what we gotta hit next from BTO or other Canadian acts, cheers! 🙌🏻🔥

@peterquinones3522 3 года назад

Their best songs of what kids call "bangers" are two songs on Not Fragile by Blair Thornton, Givin It All Away and Free Wheel in.

@itzel1735 3 года назад

Specifically Randy Bachman. (He left Guess Who in the middle of their big US tour. Later turned to his hometown friend, Neil Young for advice on starting over, which led to BTO) Randy has a weekly radio broadcast in Canada called “Vinyl Tap”. He plays all kinds and vintages of popular music, and tells great stories. Worth checking out.

@actorJSB 3 года назад

Not most notably the guitarist - ONLY the guitarist (the drummer did tour with them for a but in the 80s but never played on any of the 70s/good stuff).

Also gotta do BTOs Blue Collar off their first album. One of the greatest night time driving songs ever written .

Their “Not Fragile” album is probably the bangiest. Personally, I like their jazzier stuff. “Blue Collar” is my #1. “Looking Out for #1” is my #2.

"I'll pretend to respect your B+ while we are on the air." Classic and deserved remark.

@CrashLandon1 3 года назад

The story behind this song is (more or less) that, while the band were on the highway, their vehicle got hemmed in by a couple of 18-wheelers. They caught up with the drivers at a truck stop, and confronted them about it. The drivers' reaction was like, "Hey, it's cool. Everything's fine; no one got hurt. Just let it ride." And a song idea was born. So, Andy, your mention of getting into a fight at a truck stop was closer than you might think. And con-grad-ulations, bud!

@barbarabuttler7647 3 года назад

As I read the lyrics along with the song, it sounded like a man whose girl took him for granted. He's ready to hit the road. He wanted to know how she would feel if he did the same thing to her. The tension seems to escalate as he asks her, try try, try, would you let it ride (if I did that to you)?

@metalmark65 3 года назад

Been waiting for some BTO. This is a pretty tasty banger but Takin' Care of Business off this same album is their best known song. Either way, these guys knew how to rock.

@muthajohn 3 года назад

I agree 100%, 'Taken Care of Business' shows off a lot more of their skills and is a better song. I bet they only give a 'B' for 'Let It Ride'

@skroy8671 3 года назад

I think Let it Ride will get better than a B, and I think it's a better cut than Takin Care of Business. But in all fairness, I believe that Takin Care of Business has been so overplayed that I just got sick of it. Did you ever love a song that just got so much air play you got tired of it and started to dislike it?

@metalmark65 3 года назад

I think Let It Ride is a fine start but when you know the band's catalog you start thinking "biggest hit" versus favorite songs. I like Not Fragile and Roll On Down The Highway better than Takin' Care, but I'd want someone who never heard them before to hear the biggest songs first. There's a reason why they are hits.

@Jalahr77 3 года назад

IMO, Takin Care of Business may be their most popular song, but by no means their best. It's one of those songs that you can get tired of easily. Have to get into some deeper cuts to get to the good stuff like "Flat Broke Love", "Four Wheel Drive", "Not Fragile", and "Roll On Down The Highway". If you want to do a popular radio song, then at least do "You Ain't Seen Nothing Yet".

Saw them several times and not a weak link anywhere in the group. The drummer was a mad man. During the shows Randy does a guitar solo that is absolute magic and keeps the audience spellbound.

One of the best songs ever made. You don't know what rock really is until you been listening to bto for years and to this day

@mysterychuck 3 года назад

Sadly "Blue Collar" is rarely mentioned when talking of this group but it's a top 5 BTO song for me. I think they would find it interesting if they reacted to it but alas I fear my wish won't come true.

Blue Collar, and Roll On Down The Highway are my 2 favorite BTO songs.

@mikepastor.k6233 2 года назад

The best rock jazz fusion song ever. And deep lyrics. Turner's vocals are also something to behold. Sounds like a R&B singer

@Mr.56Goldtop 2 года назад

Many, including me, think that their first album was their best. Not a bad song on it.

@johnnyformom3418 2 года назад

Blue collar was awesome off the first album. Randy's guitar was super cool.

I'm 53 and enjoying the hell out of watching these bros bob their heads to some great tunes. My suggestion is review Mississippi Queen by Mountain.

@mdennis9496 3 года назад

We Canadians (yes I’m Canadian) took the world by storm with this On Point Rocker! Rand Bachman (the Lead) had a gutsy vocal that carried this infectious track. The guitars were their signature, but so was a surprising bass end for a rock group. The FiRST of many hits for Bachman Turner Overdrive. Definitely travel down that Rabbit Hole………..

@matthewgracey1894 3 года назад

Their anthem: “Taking care of business”. If you want to get lost in the sauce, “Blue Collar”

How about Looking Out For Number One? That's a good "lost in the sauce" track, too. I loved that BTO could play some jazzy blues as well as rock out!

@jtf2dan 3 года назад

Probably my favorite track by BTO,,,classic guitar ring to the chords and a haunting ending...this song always took me places......one of those RARE gems that....when you hear it on the radio or playing in the background somewhere....if you can, you turn the volume up and stop what you are doing and get lost in the sauce.....or if you cant control the volume, you stop what you are doing, stop talking....just so you can enjoy the memories one more time......

@sonnyhenriksen9398 3 года назад

"Not fragile" has the best bass line, of any classic rock track! You've got to hit that.

@jgsrhythm100 3 года назад

What I respect about BTO is, they look like Bikers(and are), have many heavy tacks like this, yet also have the very bossa nova, jazzy track "Lookin out for #1".

@luke_bongoman89 3 года назад

Phenomenal song. It's either an A+ or an S for me. Super underrated band. Definitely check out more of their music

@doplinger1 3 года назад

So, you fist-bumped, called it a banger, smiled and bopped throughout the whole thing, loved everything about it - then give it an A and a B+???? Wow.....

@nebbindog6126 3 года назад

It's not that great of a song. If they'd have listened to "Blue Collar", it would be a better grade.

@dickiebobradio1304 3 года назад

Yes, Alex's grade was a bummer. I think he thought the lyrics were sexist.

@ALifeThatRocks 3 года назад

Another of Canada’s great contributions to Rock. Bachman tells the origin story of this song. They were early in their career and driving from show to show when they encountered some road rage from a group of truck drivers. The band followed them into a truck stop to confront them when they were intercepted by another trucker who witnessed everything. He told the band to not get too serious about it and ‘let it ride’.

@tracycampbell3060 Год назад

Love this local Canadian band. Randy Bachman owned a home in my beloved Queens Park in New Westminister, BC. Gotta check out You ain't seen Nothing yet !

@Yikes5824 3 года назад

BTO’s “You Ain’t Seen Nothin’ Yet” was a quick-take novelty song, with Randy Bachman poking fun at his cousin’s stutter. It ended up being a major hit.

@michaellombard894 2 года назад

Oh my God. This drives me right back to like 1974, Jr. High School. Notice how they would go back to the intro a couple times. What a grand effect.

@markomdahl6496 3 года назад

It just dawned on me why I enjoy this channel. Over the last 10-20 yrs I’ve grown so tired of “classic rock” that I grew up on in the 70s. This channel forces me listen to these classics with renewed focus - on lyrics and music, etc. And watching A&A’s enthusiasm doesn’t hurt. Thanks for re-introducing these songs to us old folk. I’m thinking Lil Feat would be a nice follow up to BTO.
