The lead singer, Burton Cummings is an amazing vocalist. His solo work is really great. Check out Stand Tall, I'm Scared, Timeless Love, Break It To Them Gently, Your Backyard, and I Will Play a Rhapsody. Guess Who songs are Undone, These Eyes, No Sugar Tonight - New Mother Nature. Cummings cover of When a Man Loves a Woman is outstanding.

The concert had been interrupted by a thunderstorm. The crowd was still there after the storm passed so the concert continued. Randy Bachman (in Winnipeg pronounced Backman) used to go hang out at the music store with Neil Young, staring at the guitars they couldn't afford. Not bad for a bunch of old guys who cut their teeth playing at community club sock hops.

I live in Winnipeg and this concert was held in our baseball stadium on June 30th. July 1st is Canada Day - that is why you see so many Canadian flags in the audience. When Burton Cummings said at the beginning of the concert, only Winnipeggers would stay - it is because there was a torrential rainstorm prior to the Guess Who taking the stage. You should really watch the interview with Burton Cummings saying how they wrote American Woman on the stage ad lib. They are amazing!

Nope - It was Burton Cummings who was late getting back to the stage and Randy started playing the riff on his guitar to signal Burton to come back. The crowd was really digging the riff so Burton just started scatting some lyrics. You are right about the bootleg recording though.

5:42 - The comment about ''the crowd staying'' refers to an hour-long delay caused mid-show by a severe electrical storm. I've been to hundreds of concerts but too young in the early 70s I had to wait for this tour to pass by Montreal to see the Guess Who. Schooled in Rock I knew the repertoire, the history and ''American woman'' is an anthem. But they blew everybody's mind with that extended version and to this day I'll swear it went longer than 14 minutes (the intro itself passing from 90 seconds to 6 minutes.) I beleive the Winnipeg concert was part of the Canada Day celebrations, thus a more reserved crowd. The one I attended looked like the Rio crowd reacting to Rush's YYZ.

Love to see old rockers still rockin' out and still be great at it. Bachman is such a great guitarist and an interesting guy. You should check out his Vinyl Tap podcasts. Burton Cummings is such an underrated lead singer; he had a very good solo career as well. Randy and Burton had some friction over the years but always seem to have totally respected each other. Other Guess Who hits to react to include Undun, No Time, These Eyes, Runnin' Back To Saskatoon, Hand Me Down World, Hang On To Your Life, Share The Land, Albert Flasher, Rain Dance, Bus Rider, Star Baby etc.

I did have a chuckle when Bachman broke the string with the drumstick. I just thought: "that's why we were born with fingers ... for tapping arpeggios". If I was going to be greedy, the only thing in that solo I would have liked is if he used the whammy bar more during the latter sections to make it more sludgy and dirty. Also, what about that bass line holding the solo up? It was perfect. Another great track from Chris the Master.

If you haven't already, you really should check out Burton Cummings solo work. The lyricism is almost as incredible as the vocals. And Randy Bachman was no slouch either. His post Guess Who stuff deserves some deep dives as well. There's *B.T.O* of course, and his little known, but equally amazing, run with *Ironhorse* (Not to be mistaken for the bluegrass band *Iron Horse* from Alabama...though they aren't bad either). Randy was also in the bands *Brave Belt* and *Union.*

Randy can still rock the bells, you might also like Jerry Doucette (RIP) famour for "Mama let him play (some rock and roll)".

Years earlier they recorded Live at the Paramount with a 16 minute version that has a similar intro. The whole album is one of my favorite live albums. kzbin.info/www/bejne/iIaYoaqPbMp8as0
