I swear , this is our unofficial anthem in Canada. You get a bunch of Canadians of a certain age in one place singing this song and it is a party.❤

[@coravonhampeln4156]

Exactly. Play this and you know the party is really starting.

[@shellyfox863]

I go right back to being a teen whenever I hear this. BTO was my fav then and is today still and short list. Their music has aged so very well.

[@carriekay5987]

You CANNOT hear this song without wanting to DANCE to it! It is a GREAT song!!

[@travis8981]

I was born in 1972 and my older brother’s made sure I knew who BTO was, thanks Bro!!! Try their song She’s A Devil, it’s one of my favorites!

[@howardhales6325]

Still great after 10,000 times listening. RIP Robbie.

[@sylvieyfilion7400]

so true I saw the sing this live and everyone was singing with them.

[@eddyblackburn8092]

U rock Harri! Love your stuff ! Eddy again from the states in South Carolina ! Keep it up ! Watched all your videos finally caught up!

[@debbieplato5107]

Love that you giving love to some of our Canadian bands. 🇨🇦

[@cindycowan249]

Lo..had this on, jamming out like I was 16 again...my granddaughter walked in...think I traumatized her! Nana dancing!!

[@Lakeshore14]

I have seen Randy Bachman in concert after he dissolved BTO. He is an unbelievable guitarist. Thanks for this reaction. 😊👍🇨🇦

[@jbs454]

I saw him preforming as guess who but he did all the Bto songs too

[@charlenewebb5893]

Your going to like this one .We all do Classic !

[@JB-yb4wn]

My favourite UK, Canadian content channel.

[@cleanslate2004]

It surprises me that this song isn't covered as much as Browned eyed Girl, Gloria, Honkytonk Women, Miss You. & Play that Funky Music White Boy. This was a quintessential foot tapping your way to the dance floor song. Ya can't help yourself. It drags you outta your funk if ya had one, or not. It was pretty easy to cover & that repetative hook cut thru your mood like a mantra with a marching beat. A pop-rock masterpiece.

[@RicoBurghFan]

One of my absolute favorites. This came out in 1974 and me and my cousins were rocking this on the radio in a tent in their parents back yard. Great memories and after all these years this song is still a total banger.

[@jeffhenderson9007]

I saw them in the 80s at a large nightclub in Destin Florida. Called night town the place was Hoppin so much the building was shaking. They blew the roof off

[@Ineversetupautubechannel]

For whatever weird reason Iv started to watch reaction vids................... I must say Sir............ Yours are 1 of my favorites You are intelligent, concise and do not interrupt the songs too much TY Sir for your efforts

Love both The Guess Who & BTO with Randy playing guitar Canada’s best 🇨🇦☮️💜🎸 Randy is a renowned guitarist, he teaches it on KZbin, as well he has a great 👍 radio / KZbin show Vinyl Cafe finding great r & r songs & talks about time on the road with different groups throughout the 60’s 70’s, some great stories 🎸🇨🇦😻 Just watched Kennedy Center Awards honouring BB KING & Lucille 🎸and it was fantastic 🎶🥰💜💎😻👍

[@nivekkled]

Thank for the memory! Cheers

[@patrickwest6876]

I'm glad you covered this! My wife and I flew from Houston to Toronto, Ontario Canada in July 2022 to see him and Burton Cummings (they were in The Guess Who together. This was the first song I danced to with a girl back in 1974 when I joined the Air Force!

[@bobdelp2023]

THIS WAS A HUGE HUGE RADIO HIT IN THE EARLYYYY 70'S HARRI 😊 TALK ABOUT AN S TIER SONG, WHAT'S MORE S TIER THAN THIS , TAKING CARE OF BUSINESS EVERYDAYYYY! 😊

[@carollittle1059]

They rocked it!

[@patswanson2870]

Randy Bachman released a Christmas song called Taking Care of Christmas which is a real fun song and the kids love it. I think it is on KZbin.

[@divindave6117]

The piano parts was a fluke. Originally there wasn't one, during recording in the studio, a pizza delivery guy said "hey man, let me play piano...and they did just to make him go away. The rest is as they say...history. True story.

[@DK-ed7be]

Takes me back to listening to AM CKLW Windsor, Ontario.

[@roniboyd613]

One of my all time fave groups!!

[@diannthomas5653]

Loved it . Thanks

[@itzel1735]

You can find Randy Bachman’s resurrected “Vinyl Tap” radio show online. Diverse playlist and Randy’s unique stories. Good listening.

[@janelliot5643]

Very cool commentary on a great old (1973!) song. Thank you!

[@RobRager]

My first real rock LP, back when it had just been released, & was 11 years old.

[@douglasg.9271]

Funny, it was my first rock album too (along with “fly like an eagle” by Steve miller. )

[@Justme77400]

Great song! It's in my workout playlist!!

[@surlechapeau]

Finally Harri!!! great choice Louis!! Love singing this song!! A banger with nice piano also!

[@itzel1735]

Like any good bar band, they give the audience a lot of fun. Good musicians. The lyrics aren’t deep. And the songs range from Blue Collar to Not Fragile. Anything to win over the audience and keep playing. #RRHOF time.

[@stephenhuber1219]

Randy started The Guess Who with Burton Cummings

[@khoohockleong7585]

The baby boomers are hard workers but they also like to takethings easy sometimes. My father as a school principal supervised a lot of teachers born from this era. Some of them if they are hard workers as Heads of Department, expect all the teachers under tyem to be just as hardworking which my father told them that cannot be the case.

[@theadorfeldman8452]

Kudos to Louie & Harri on this one! So much fun the way this song just flows its own way!

[@r.awilliams9815]

You're gonna love Blue Collar.

LISTEN TO ALL THEIR SONGS THEY ARE ALL UNIQUE AND AWESOME 👏

[@cathyaudette1060]

This is one of those steering-wheel-pounding songs that I love to hear when I am driving (especially when going to work). LOL!! It's a rocking song that is fun and an automatic sing-along! 🤗😃

[@annewoodard6803]

I was a kid when this song was on the radio. It still remember all the words. 😁❤️

Great song and we all aspire to be taking care of business and not doing the 9 to 5 hustle.

Harri you're the best. More BTO. 🇨🇦🇨🇦 Rockin good stuff. Lookin' Out for Number 1 Hey You Roll On Down The Highway You Ain't Seen Nothing Yet Blue Collar Thanks Harri and Louis. Cheers from Canada 🇨🇦

[@toddbollinger3902]

I saw them live a long time ago open up for Van Halen.

[@fscottgray9784]

BTO live at the Roseland Ballroom showcases them in later years doing all their big hits. It is a great video to watch.

[@dannycasson1551]

My first concert. I have always loved BTO. Try, “Let It Ride” if you haven’t yet.

[@coravonhampeln4156]

Randy Bachman has a great musical history. He was part of The Guess Who with Burton Cummings and they've both done great stuff both together and separately. Check out The Guess Who and also Burton Cummings.

[@Laura_Martin42]

This one always makes me think of Money for Nothing by Dire Straits.

[@jameslaforce8436]

[@ekim0513]

I still haven't gotten over the massive overplaying on the radio this song had.

[@kustomdeluxe8489]

Rock Is My Life is a great forgotten song by BTO.

[@cdfdesantis699]

Good for you, sir! You got both father & son in in less than 24 hours. When you see the live video of this song, the guys are just having a blast! If you haven't already, sir, you may want to check out "You Ain't Seen Nothin' Yet" & "Hey You". You're right, sir - BTO was just all KINDS of fun! Thank you for takin' care of THIS business!

[@peterzimmer9140]

I know Randy Bachman had Little Richard in the studio playing piano for one of their tracks.

[@hugolarsson3600]

Two, actually.

[@patticrichton1135]

I read somewhere that Randy got the idea for the cadence of the song from the Beatles "Paperback Writer."

[@JK_Clarke]

Way to go, Harri! Your great reaction to this great song makes it loom even greater! 100 marks for both of you!

[@Boatzilla2]

Harri, there's a good live clip of this on the Internet. The sound is not the best, but it really shows their interaction with a very enthusiastic crowd, as well as the band's funky fashion sense.

[@charlesbarton3032]

If you do what you love it's not really what I would consider working and you are one of the lucky ones

[@briansummers6074]

This band doesn't have bad songs.

[@tcanfield]

Hey Harri ~ in case you feel like playing “Harry”-themed songs, I happen to know of a couple that are also top shelf songs : “Harry’s House” by Joni Mitchell & “Another Harry’s Bar” by Jethro Tull. Both are excellent storytelling songs !

[@tgforty5]

Oh, the drumming on this one!

[@onepieceofgumleft]

It was music like this that led many Americans who live close to the Canadian border , to listen to Canadian music stations instead.

[@patticrichton1135]

I used to work at a Canadian radio station, CKWW in Windsor, Ontario (NOT CKLW, that was one of the other stations in WIndsor)

[@sourisvoleur4854]

CFUN, CKLG from Vancouver. Listened to them when I was up near the border in the U.S. San Juans.

[@incensejunkie7516]

Randy Bachman was inspired by Paperback Writer and dubbed his own creation "White Collar Worker". The Guess Who, the band he was with at the time, passed on it, and it eventually morphed into Taking Care of Business after he heard a Vancouver DJ, on the radio, say he was "taking care of business" (after he departed the Guess Who). He changed the title, adjusted the lyrics and that night, played it live for the first time at a bar before BTO made it big. They made music that was hard to sit still to. I keep on requesting Blue Collar, and will do so again. It's a far cry from what most people know BTO as...Bachman shows his jazz chops. It's brilliant, their masterpiece imo. Not their signature song, but far, far more interesting and evocative than their hits, which I also love.

[@JimRobinson-colors]

Don't hear Paperback writer in this at all. What I do hear and know is true is Bob Seger's "Ramblin Gamblin Man" you can literally sing the song over it. I think I have heard Randy mention Paperback Writer but that makes no sense to me.

[@incensejunkie7516]

@@JimRobinson-colors It was the lyrics to PW that inspired him.

[@Scatherfirst]

For a complete change of style check out another of their big hits, the very jazzy Lookin' Out for Number One.

[@jeepster7806]

you enjoyed The Guess Who tunes, Randy Bachman one of Canadas legendary Guitarists was lead in both bands. eventually Garry Peterson the Guess Who drummer would do a stint with BTO

[@sidecar7714]

“There’s a club for people who hate their jobs. It’s called everybody and they meet at the bar after work.” Drew Carey

[@mrnobody9104]

nice pic Harri, this song is timeless!

[@Mike-lr3cu]

When this came out, you could really hear car engines and there was something similar between the car engine sounds and BTO's guitar riffs. I learned not to listen to BTO when I was driving, because I would end up syncing the car engine sound with the song and end up driving much faster than I had any business driving.

[@michaelmolloy6697]

Harri…..please now play Blue Collar by BTO Funky and jazzy you will love it!!!

[@nebbindog6126]

My favorite BTO!

[@paulmorris8762]

Randy Bachman formed BTO after leaving Guess Who (soon followed by Burton Cummings leaving too to have a great solo career as did Bachman) altho' the BTO sog You Aint Seen Nothin' Yet is more of an anthem the this song LOL

[@bloppysloppy4057]

If you watch a BTO live performance, make sure it's from 1973-1976. Anything after that is sketchy.

[@CB-gr1uk]

Elvis wore a pendant with the initials TCB and a lightening bolt going through it. He said it stood for the name he gave his band when he started touring when he got out of the army. The name of the band, you guessed it, Taking Care of Business. This a great song!

[@John_Chu]

Bachman didn't take the title from Elvis' use of the phrase. He was driving into Vancouver one night when he was struck by radio DJ Daryl B's signature catch phrase "We're Takin' Care of Business." He inserted that phrase into a song he had written during his Guess Who days called "White Collar Worker," that Burton Cummings had rejected because the chorus sounded exactly like The Beatles' "We Can Work It Out." Bachman changed the chords and inserted the new title phrase and the rest is history.

[@CB-gr1uk]

@@John_Chu I never said he did. Read what I wrote. Elvis started calling his band that in 1969. You need to chill.

[@ivansavoie3190]

You sure it wasn't TBC I know he gave them out.

[@ivansavoie3190]

TCB

[@CB-gr1uk]

@@ivansavoie3190 It was TCB, I put something in there about BTO, decided to take it out but left their initials there.😥

[@oldermusiclover]

there are a couple of videos of him doing this live it is a blast

[@Mikex973]

You should react to BTO's Blue Collar it shows a different side to them a very jazzy side to them that you might enjoy.

[@douglasg.9271]

The piano player was actually just a pizza delivery guy, who was delivering to Steve Miller in the studio next door. He went to the wrong door, (BTO’s) and commented “it needs piano” after hearing a version of TCB. He asked for a shot at it, as he was a pianist. Randy Bachman said “why not”? The next day the head of the label came in, heard the version of TCB with piano, and loved it. BTO didn’t even know the guys name. The had to call around to pizza shops to find him. The rest is history.

[@surlechapeau]

Norman Durkee: Pianist, composer, advertising jingle writer and musical director for cabaret theater Teatro ZinZanni in Seattle. Worked at the Kaye-Smith Studios, where one night he was spontaneously recruited to play on Bachman-Turner Overdrive’s megahit, “Takin’ Care of Business.” (Mr. Durkee was not delivering pizza, as urban legend has it.) Randy Bachman keeps the fable alive though.

[@Lakeshore14]

What a fabulous story !

[@markr.devereux3385]

True story talk about serendipitous appearance of a delivery guy with piano skills and it works beautifully on the finished record. Very cool song from BTO probably there best.

Randy Bachman was part of "The Guess Who" & then went on to have a solo career with BTO. Both were great Canadian rock bands. BTO had a lot of great songs in the 70's such as "You Ain't Seen Nothing Yet", "Hey You", "Roll On Down The Highway", "Lookin' Out For #1" etc.

[@brianlamb7937]

You are right Harri this is a fun banger anyone can Realite to

[@ronacheson6936]

Harris great reactions on this song after they recorded it a pizza delivery guy came to the studio, another band in the next sound room ordered pizza, the guy went to the wrong sound room heard this on play back and told BTO it needed a panio, they left and told him to go ahead. Next day they listen to what he done...and left it in the song. They had to search for the delivery guy to thank him and put his name in the credits, crazy but true

[@richeaton7436]

👍 Try "Rock Is My Life, and This is My Song" or "Blue Collar".

[@markjackson3347]

Hi harri loving the show still recommend christy moore something a wee bit different for u. Keep up the good work mate

[@Spinspiel]

Another fun song to try Harri is Doucette - Mama Let Him Play. A great R&R classic from 1977. Same vibe as BTO's "TCB".
