Who want's a little "Blue Collar"?

[@diverdown631]

My favorite BTO song

[@sealee55]

Great jazzy song

[@mikejohnson2127]

Fred's favorite and mine, too

[@chitownlee]

Randy Bachman was a founding member of The Guess Who.

[@backbeat44]

Randy Bachman and Burton Cummings were the two main writers for The Guess Who, another brilliant band with a truckload of hits.

[@MrFrikkenfrakken]

Fred Turner, one of rock’s best voices.

[@carlomercorio1250]

Favourite BTO track is Not Fragile - the riff, the bassline, the guitar solo; Fred turner's gruff vocals - a hard rock classic

[@user-dq5xx9hi4q]

Good one. I love "Gimme Your Money, Please." even more.

[@DavidRold-pt3ng]

Definitely Not Fragile. Their best album to.

[@gpxo11]

On the same album two other killer album cuts-Sledgehammer and Givin It All away.

[@Arandomperson_online]

I’m 64 years old still loving it 🥰

[@missblondie2393]

Great driving song Fred Turner's voice love that grit and passion

[@brianvernon249]

This is one of those songs that when it pops on, I don’t turn it off.

[@terrenceplunkett]

Love this band. Love Fred Turner’s roaring voice. They made my High School years happier

[@realbser1956]

Can’t miss with Gail and BTO.

[@debbieplato5107]

Hi Lee, BTO is from my hometown of Winnipeg, Manitoba Before Randy Bachman was in BTO he was in the Guess Who. I used to see them at Community Club dances when I was 13. Yep, that was a magical time for music. Randy Bachman and Fred Turner shared lead vocals. If you want to hear a heavy one , Not Fragile with Fred Turner on vocals. Cheers and have a good one

[@joelliebler5690]

Good one and a couple other hits were You Ain’t Seen Nothing Yet and Roll On Down The Highway!!

[@timfeeley714-25]

A cool side story is the one about Randy Bachman's cherished 1957 Gretsch 6120 Chet Atkins model guitar that he bought in the early sixties and used in The Guess who and in BTO up until it was stolen in 1976. 45 years later it was found online by a KZbinr that was a fan of Randy's using facial recognition software. The guy said he figured that if it could recognize faces it could recognize guitars, and it did, it found the guitar in Japan in the hands of a guy who bought it from a music store. It did it by recognizing a blemish on the face of the guitar that was a knot. Randy got it back by trading the guy a guitar exactly like it that was two numbers different from his on the serial number. He still has it to this day.

[@goonbelly5841]

"You ain't seen nothing yet B-b-b-baby, you just ain't seen n-n-n-nothing yet Here's somethin' that you're never gonna forget B-b-b-baby, you just ain't seen n-n-n-nothing yet Nothing yet, you ain't been around" (that's what she told me)

[@MikeOstrowski-iq8wf]

All-Time Classic ! Memories of cruising around the city listening to this track on my 8-track player in my 1972 Chevelle 🎸

[@corawheeler9355]

Big radio hit .. BTO is so good. Thanks Gail and Lee.

[@harrydoupe9315]

If you want to get a sense of the range this band had, give Blue Collar a listen. Highly recommended.

[@greenbluemonkey]

1968 - 1978 The greatest decade for rock music. Here in Canada and there in the US. The UK music scene invasion of North America inspired a counter culture music generation, who didn't cater to the monopoly of pop radio music constraints. it peaked during that magical decade. Then the music and big radio co. colluded together and bought it all up and music began its race to the bottom. Short commercial pop sold product. Every thing was back to "normal".

[@stevefronczek7439]

Hard to beat that 10 year stretch.I would pick that or maybe 67-77 but either way I would be good listening to songs from that era for the rest of my life.

[@rubbersole79]

Fred Turners voice is like a gravel truck. In a good way. Totally underrated vocal talent. "Roll on down the Highway" and "Looking out for Number One" are essential BTO fare.

[@carolynschmidt5467]

I am not one who can let it ride. I adore this song. Think you for brightening my life.

[@debjorgo]

Randy Bachman was in the first version of the Guess Who (1960 - 1970) and wrote/cowrote many of their hits. That's him playing that classic riff on their biggest hit, American Woman. He was in the reunion concert Running Back Through Canada.

[@mikelundquist4596]

BTO was my 1st rock concert... 1975.

[@FaceBat]

Before BTO, Randy Bachman was the lead guitarist for another Canadian band, The Guess Who.

[@nyrocks5580]

Best listened to on volume 11. Kick@$$ song.

[@Arandomperson_online]

Fred and Randy’s voice SO DEEP

[@user-ul6xb3ud7j]

BTO....a staple in Canadian rock. So much great music and so many hits. The first album I ever bought was Four Wheel Drive in 1975. If you want some great guitar, check out Flat Broke Love from that album. Rock on Lee.

[@Hartlor_Tayley]

Love the sound of it

[@paulehney4581]

One of my favorite tunes!

[@johndavis5104]

If you want boogie rock, you have to listen to Canned Heat.

[@alansmith7626]

that's not fair! lol BTO has it's palce, but Canned Heat is an Icon, to me

[@porflepopnecker4376]

One of my favorite songs of all time. The whole first side of this album is great.

[@macdaddyns]

If you wanted to see them live from 2011, check out Bachman & Turner - Roll On Down The Highway (Live at the Roseland Ballroom) and also Takin care of Business and Not Fragile, Fred can still belt it out! Peace and love Brother from Nova Scotia Canada!

[@user-dq5xx9hi4q]

Randy and Fred got together not long ago with other musicians and put out a great show that can be seen on video. For this one just search youtube for "Bachman & Turner - Let It Ride (Live At The Roseland Ballroom NYC)"

[@wiliamwidlacki7459]

As a young teenager I bought all of the BTO albums......these guys rocked!!!

[@alansmith7626]

listen to this tune then listen to Blue Collar by them and remind yourself is the same band!

[@stevedahlberg8680]

They're such a fun band. You Ain't Seen Nothing Yet with the stuttering vocal line is pretty much required listening along with taking care of business of course. Tramp was not a big hit that I'm aware of, but it was a fan favorite and from a musical standpoint, I think you'd find it quite fascinating. It's pretty fun too.

[@SANPARR1]

Great Canadian band.

[@LONGBOW0808]

They also do jazz. "Blue Collar" and "Looking out for Number One"

[@Arandomperson_online]

U AINT SEEN NOTHING YET IS ALSO AWESOME HE STUTTERS IN THAT SONG 🎶 SO COOL 😎

[@kianpa1]

Love them! Jump on down….

[@dandare42]

Fred Turner had the vocal skill while Randy wrote some amazing riffs and was the songwriter for the majority of their material. But Randy still sang some of the biggest hits ("You Ain't Seen Nothin Yet," "Takin Care of Busines," "Looking Out For No. 1" for instance). He had collaborated with Burton Cummings in the Guess Who (and Chad Allan and the Expressions before the band underwent a name change) but quit right after the success of "American Woman" in 1970 because the rock lifestyle of excess clashed with his newfound mormon beliefs.

[@827dusty]

"BTO" are made up of some former members of "The Guess Who," (Burton Cummings not included). Bachman Turner Overdrive came out in the early 70s, after The Guess Who, sort of dissolved as a Band. These Canadians were a Classic Rock" staple of the 70s Rock music scene.

[@debjorgo]

Well..., Share the Land, Hand Me Down World, Hang on to Your Life, Albert Flasher, Rain Dance, Star Baby, Clap for the Wolfman, Dancin' Fool...., were all top 40 hits after Randy left. The Guess Who were pretty much going hit for hit with BTO during this time, albeit not having the number 1 songs.

[@Arandomperson_online]

Listen to all their songs u won’t regret it

[@timliscum2861]

Fred Turners voice is incredible

[@sharondavid-melly1498]

Love the energy in this 😘

[@dustylane2898]

Hey Lee, here's a few BTO songs to check out: Roll On Down The Highway, You Ain't Seen Nothing Yet, and Takin' Care Of Business.

[@duckydewer]

Lee. I see it below. BTO grew out of "The Guess Who," I thought you'd see that. Missed one buddy...

[@MarkChappell1]

Would you cry if I told you that lie, would you say goodbye or would you let it ride? His lady is unfaithful and lying about it he's asking her what would you do if you were in my shoes? "Maybe you want the forgiving kind, and that's just not my style". Great song, been on my playlist since it came out.

[@debjorgo]

In general, BTO had a harder edge sound than what you hear here. Hits Takin' Care of Business, Hey You and You Ain't Seen Nothing Yet were pretty light weight pop. Roll Down the Highway, Rock is My Life, Blue Collar, Sledgehammer and Not Fragile hit a little harder.

[@brianwhitish5898]

I love this song!

[@joshoberg9797]

Try "Not Fragile" from their Not Fragile album.

[@Arandomperson_online]

BROTHERS

[@daseguin]

Not Fragile and Rock is My Life !!!

[@coinneachmaclellan3121]

A great but different sounding song for BTO is "Blue Collar"...very jazzy...

[@DavidRold-pt3ng]

Lee, check the title track from their third album, Not Fragile. That's also their best album imo. But they had a string of 4 or 5 really good albums. And i think you could classify them as hard rock because they do get pretty heavy at times Not Fragile. But they do dable into so jazzy style, some blues & some lighter rock, but definitely more BTO

[@robertasirgutz8800]

I think you'd like "38 Special".

[@yourebusted5786]

I'm instantly in the 6th grade again.

[@markgallemore8856]

Consciousness is when the brain reflects upon itself. It’s an emergent property of having a functioning brain. I’ve never seen anything that had the emergent property of consciousness that didn’t have a functioning brain. This emergent properties isn’t going to go anywhere.when the brain dies. it simply ceases to exist. In other words, the emergent property of consciousness is no longer generated by the functioning brain which is no longer functioning. And again it didn’t go anywhere. It isn’t any more complicated than that.

[@markgallemore8856]

This is a generalization of the music produced between 1965 and 1975 was extremely creative. There were only a few ways to alter the sound of a guitar, and they weren’t necessarily convenient or reliable. When real human beings play music, they transfer the intensity and dynamics and withholding or resolving note, increasing and decreasing the volume by the way that you’re playing it’s why this music stands the test of time. Technology is just a tool. How do you use that tool will be determined whether it’s art or it’s churned out crap. Crap sells. Even Simon and Garfunkels first release of the sounds of silence went nowhere. Until a producer at the record label took it and fixed it to make it relevant and re-released it.

[@Humb7757]

BTO is ‘Not Fragile’

[@toddfrank3344]

FYI they actually pronounce their name Back-mun.

[@jeffreyhamilton4647]

Drummer was never considered that good, pretty sure he got the job because of his brother.

[@nancy9891]

To think that music can be replaced is creepy. Mindless humans replaced by a few technologically advanced people. 🤮. Saw BTO, Buddy Miles, and Malo in Chicago years ago. It was a great concert!
