After leaving The Guess Who in 1970, Randy Bachman Decided to start a new band with The gues Who's original singer, Chad Allen. To Play bass he hired his old freind C.F.

Bush Presidential library... as well as the rest of "B.T.O.'s Greatest" - but probably not in the lobby. Now that you're practically "flat broke" - the story continues - but different. I've been waiting for that bus all day, you see... One good ride | Reviewer: Hab A Chance ------ About the song Four Wheel Drive performed by Bachman-Turner Overdrive An underrated tune from B.T.O., this one is made for driving.

A hard rock classic.

Lead vocalist Fred Turner explains that Hell's Angels requested House of the Rising Sun at one of their concerts, and who was BTO to turn down a request from Hell's Angels?

BTO photos: http://www.GreatWriteUp.com guitar licks | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song Looking Out For Number One performed by Bachman-Turner Overdrive This is different than most of the BTO songs, and to me, the very best. The guitar work between the verses is some of the most innovative in rock, and shows true virtuosity, not just repeating practices licks that are so typical of most rock guitarists. This is the cream of BTO. The Greatest | Reviewer: greg byer ------ About the song Roll On Down The Highway performed by Bachman-Turner Overdrive One of the top 5 greatest rock anthems of all time!!!
