The stuttering lyrics were the singer Randy Bachman mimicking his brother Gary and apparently he never meant for that to be the released recording. Also Bachman was a founding member of The Guess Who.

I heard that they were in the studio and he did the stutter as a joke, and when they went to actually record he dropped the stutter. The producer said”wait why are you doing it different now?” He said “oh we were just joking around with that” the producer told them to keep it in…. Good call

The song was originally just simple chords the band played ad lib for sound checks. The band did the standard vocals like “check one two three” to balance the audio. Randy’s brother had a stutter so Randy was initially just doing sibling teasing and made up some lines. They were all laughing and the audience loved it. Randy was very reluctant to record it, but it became a hit.

I was 16 in 1976, I drove a 1966 Chevelle (2 door of course) I had an under dash 8 track tape player with this tape in most of the time. My hair was long my weed was cheap and life was worth living. I am 63 now and my hair is long, my Harley is loud and life is good. Thank you two for bringing back my youth for a few moments with your youth hearing the music with young ears and fresh minds. I love you guys. You Rock my world!!! Thank you. CsC

Amber you're right about the 70's. It was AMAZING. I turned 15 tears old in 1970 so my teen and young adult years were in that decade. I danced and sang my way through them. Ahhh sweet memories. These songs are bringing it all back. Thanks guys.

Rob would like BTO's sledgehammer-the song sounds like the title-heavy riff that rocks!! Other BTO hits include-Let It ride, roll On Down the Highway and Shotgun Rider. If you like cowbells-check out the Chamber Brothers-The time Has Come Today and the group Mountain with Mississippi Queen.

3:00 One of the reasons why you love 70's music, is that they used minor chords much more than composers do now, a minor chord in music tugs at your heart (which is why classical writers use it so often)

Love, love, love💖💖💖 BTO is one of my fave groups of all time. Amber, if you had been around in the 70s, we would have taken you to the concert with us! So much fun! Randy Bachman (lead singer) was a former member of The Guess Who. Loved your reaction😊

They were my first concert in 1973 in Bellingham Washington when I was a Freshman in college. Cool story is the backup band was Blind Willie. About ten years ago I took my guitar to get repaired at a guys shop in Spokane. He had a Gold record on his wall from this album. My guitar tech had played on this record. And I remember him from the concert in 73 playing lead for the backup band at my first concert. We became fast friends. It was a fun concert.

While being 60 might not sound like a benefit, living through these musical periods and how each song connected to my life is something that is organic. It is as if these songs were trading cards coming out one at a time, sometimes in bunches with connections to one another and still able to fan them out mentally. I am glad you are finding new music you love and sharing it with others. BTO was big and really different at the time.
@maeric92 жыл бұрын
Well said! As a fellow 60+ this is a thrill to watch our songs come back via these reaction videos. RSR has that excited new discovery approach that is a kick. A&A has a more cerebral reaction but with depth and a musical background. It is all awesome to me.

This is the song that got played so much people got sick of it and in fact their other song Takin Care of Business was actually the music you would hear on hold at Office Depot for the longest time. But they were such an incredible band. I'm glad you were able to pick up on the vibe for sure.

This group was extremely versatile a song you should check out is Blue Collar the common working-class anthem... BTO was a rock band but Blue Collar is a bluesy jazzy lounge tune... the guitar work will blow your mind. Cheers from Canada. Love you folks and your channel.

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 "Let It Ride", "You Ain't Seen Nothing Yet", "Takin' Care Of Business", "Hey You", "Roll On Down The Highway", "Lookin' Out For #1" etc.

Every time I hear 70s music like this, I think of summers as a teenager hanging out at the CNE on the midway with my friends enjoying the rides, games, the people!! Our local radio station 1050 CHUM was the music you'd hear throughout the midway!! It was such a great time to be alive!! Nothing absolutely NOTHING beats the 70s and 80s for awesome good-time music!! ❤from 🇨🇦

Amber, it’s great that we can enjoy all of these great old videos. I was fortunate to be born in the fifties, which landed me in the 70’s at the age when my musical curiosity was piqued. It was also a time when people didn’t have to spend a fortune to see a live show. I attended an incredible number of concerts back in the day. I couldn’t afford to do that now. Rock on guys!🌺✌️
