Bachman Turner Overdrive- Four Wheel Drive- Randy Bachman

Original Guess Who songwriter/guitarist Randy Bachman sold Top Five for the final time in the US in 1975  as Bachman-Turner Overdrive with Four Wheel Drive, huge sounding warm-blooded draft horse rock from the Great White North of Canada. Between 1973 and 1977, BTO sold more than seven million albums containing “Gimme Your Money Please”,”Blue Collar”,”Takin’ Care of Business”,”Roll On Down the Highway”, the fluke “You Ain’t Seen Nothing Yet” which has an amazing back story, and “Hey You”. Randy Bachman joins me for a delightful classic rock interview covering the May 1973 debut, then  BTO II,  the #1-seller  Not Fragile,  and Four Wheel Drive all in barely two  years. –Redbeard
