Randy Bachman from the Guess Who teamed with Fred Turner, a Canadian rocker. BTO was a banger band in the 70's with big hits like this, Taking Care of Business and Let It Ride, the latter featuring Turner's powerful vocals. You should definitely check out more of their stuff.
The Bachman brothers, and Mr. Turner, going into overdrive. Bachman Turner Overdrive, more commonly called BTO. Huge anthems from the 70's. This one's my fav for certain.
The piano player was the pizza delivery guy delivering pies to the band 'WAR' that were recording at the same studio as BTO - a very funny story is behind that.
@@T-ShirtMagic - Nope - that's a story made up by Randy. Norman Durkee was/is a well known studio session player and he was in the studio building. The engineer suggested they get him in to do a piano part. Durkee is none too pleased that Bachman continually lies about this.
@@BobSoltis1 Pizza story I heard directly from Randy. Had you direct knowledge of the other story? That story I found on *The fact-checking site* that has banned it's author David Mikkelson from writing articles; after a BuzzFeed News investigation prompted an internal review.
Randy Bachman's bother had a stutter and Randy sang one of the studio takes of this song with a stutter just as a joke and to tease his brother. However, the producer liked it so much he convinced the band to actually use that take on the record.
They played this at my first high school dance. None of us could really dance, and it's really not a dance song, but man did we have fun. Great song great memories.
Speech Impediment Rock! This song was meant to be a Throw-Away song as a joke on his brother, who stuttered badly. He's Still Rocking on a Live Radio Show called *VINYL TAP! Keep The Rock Rollin''* where untold stories of Rock Moments of the Last Six Decades. Very Entertaining! I'm so fortunate to live a stones throw from Randy and *Valdy* too.
We just lost Ronnie Bachman drummer. Jan 12 but his passing was shadowed by Lisa Marie presley death the same day. R.I.P. all. Also the 13th. Jeff.Beck.
Wow it’s been years since I’ve heard this. I think this came out mid 70’s. I had just graduated high school. Great band I don’t really think much about anymore. Thanks!!
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.
Another tune that's part of the soundtrack of our lives, even today. So much of the rock from the 70's and 80's is still so recognizable to young people. Great music never goes out of style.
Randy Bachman's brother Gary stutters so the band recorded an extra take of this song with Randy stuttering the words to give to his brother as a joke. This version was so good it ended up on the album
One of the most famous 'power ballad' of the '70's. They played what is known as the Big Sound. Ahhh... drivin' down Beach Blvd (Hwy 39) to Huntington. Great memories.
Ba ba ba ba baby you just ain't seen nothing yet!! It's been a minute since I heard that song. I love going back in time with these songs. Thank you!!!
They were called BTO, they were huge in the 70s. They had a huge fan base. Their emblem on their logo was a machine gear, all their followers were called gear heads. They have so many hits but the first one you hit should be LET IT RIDE. That song the lead singer Fred Turner. His voice is much different than Randy Bachman. You will absolutely love it. KEEP ROCKIN
This is such a "JAM," it's a "VIBE" and it's so "LIT" that it made the Lead Singer "Stutter!!!" BTO has other jams like "Taking Care Of Business" and "Let It Ride," please react to these also!!!
Thanks for playing this. I was about 13,when this was every 3rd song on the radio. I have 2 pair of bellbottoms tailored last year, thats how bad I want these times back.
Great one guys. I was in highschool when this was released I think in 1974 or 75. This was a great cruising the back roads smoking some reefer with your buddies FM radio songs. Those were such fun carefree days. This brings back some great memories, do thanks guys. He Asia, Three guys, Bachman, Turner and Overdrive. What ! Who the hell is Overdrive? You're hilarious 😂 ! 👌☮️✌️💕
That's a classic. Use to be on every jukebox when it came out, and was still on them for a while afterwards. Really great band with several other songs y'all will love.
Bachman-Turner Overdrive was made up of Randy Bachman on lead and rhythm guitar and vocals, his younger brother Rob Bachman on drums, Fred Turner on bass and vocals, and Blair Thornton on lead and rhythm guitar and vocals. To say they were huge in the 1970s is, well, a colossal understatement! I learned from an interview with Randy Bachman years and years ago that he wanted BTO to be a rhythm based rock band. But I didn't know until very recently that they were sharing a dressing room with the Doobie Brothers in New Orleans during Mardi Gras when he worked out some of "Let It Ride" and the Doobies based "Long Train Running" on his guitar noodlings as he ironed it out. That is astonishing and good to know. Randy said in that interview eons ago, back in the 1970s IIRC, that he wanted a band that was rhythmically similar to CCR and the Doobies. Killer rhythm was _the_ thing back in the 1970s and is much too absent from today's music. And BTO has so many excellent lead guitar solos! It is funny how I can remember those things from an interview almost 50 years ago, and I can't remember what time I got up this morning! Ah, the pleasures of life in your 60s! Ha, ha! 😂🤷♂️😉🎸
Brothers Randy & Robbie Bachman & Fred Turner went into overdrive! Randy wrote this song & performed this as a joke to his brother who stuttered. Great band!!
Started out as a great 70’s group from Canada called The Guess Who with great singer Burton Cummings. A real banger by this group is guitar-riff crazy” Roll On Down The Highway”…… In this song it is rumored that the singer stuttered on purpose to show his brother that it wasn’t that bad. Glad you have heard and recognize the song.
Randy Bachman said the last name is pronounced Back-man. Randy Bachman had been the lead guitarist for The Guess Who in the late 60's and early 70's. Take and listen to "Takin' Care of Business", "Let it Ride", "Hey You" and "Roll on Down the Highway" are some of their best songs.
The singer Randy Bachman, his brother the bass player is a stutter and he wrote this song and stuttered in it for his brother.. what a great song.. they have plenty more also.
This group was briefly known as Bachman Turner Bachman before renaming themselves Bachman-Turner Overdrive. They were coming on at full throttle with hits like LET IT RIDE, GIMME YOUR MONEY PLEASE, TAKIN' CARE OF BUSINESS, and my personal favorite, ROLL ON DOWN THE HIGHWAY. I love the two guitar solos that burn with real heat. They rumble down the highway already scorched by the Doors ROADHOUSE BLUES.

@@ralphfiligenzi6180 Yep!
Ya, Randy Bachman, one of the greatest guitarists of ever...Makes one proud to be a Canadian.

You forgot Blair Thornton on rhythm and lead guitar.
@@ToddSauve I was only talking about how the name of the band developed.
@@curiousman1672 I just hate to see Blair Thornton forgotten because I love his guitar playing. 😉🎸
More BTO: "Let It Ride" "Roll On Down the Highway" "Hey You" "Four Wheel Drive" and of course, "Takin' Care of Business"
Or what is for me possibly the greatest rock song ever recorded
Not Fragile
Above all that is Hold back the water.
Take It Like a Man featuring Little Richard on piano.
Asia & BJ, their "Taking Care Of Business" is even more of a banger, with some tasty piano!!!
The piano player was the pizza delivery guy delivering pies to the band 'WAR' that were recording at the same studio as BTO - a very funny story is behind that.
No it's not

Yep, I knew that and was gonna mention it, you (and maybe a few others) beat me to it. Story of my life, late to the game again! lmao
A record executive loved it randy was the producer
Randy Bachman guitars/vocals and Fred Turner bass/vocals. The Overdrive came from a trucker magazine that one of them had.
They played this at my first high school dance. None of us could really dance, and it's really not a dance song, but man did we have fun. Great song great memories.
It's not a dance song? Stop there and don't dance then.
A great Canadian rock band. Great to hear this again. 🍁

That's cold. I always loved these lot as a kid
Wow! Was a huge BTO fan when i was a kid. Still am. Randy was also in the Guess Who. Great pick guy's. Thank You!!! 😃🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦
well...if you dont tell us who he played in - how can i guess ??? Geez.........some people , ok ..ABBA ?
@@TheMichaelseymour Ha, good one! I think your jokeing but if not. He was lead guitarist in the Candian band The Guess Who.🤣🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦
Thank you for reacting to this great band from my youth. Roll on down the Highway is a banger.
We just lost Ronnie Bachman drummer. Jan 12 but his passing was shadowed by Lisa Marie presley death the same day. R.I.P. all. Also the 13th. Jeff.Beck.
Let It ride is my favourite BTO song. Lots of great memories with this band! 🇨🇦
Wow it’s been years since I’ve heard this. I think this came out mid 70’s. I had just graduated high school. Great band I don’t really think much about anymore. Thanks!!
Always loved this song by BTO. Every guy would love to hear that from a girl.😀 Hopefully in a positive way.

They were so good. Thanks for keeping great music alive.
Spent a lot of time dancin to this and others like it back in the mid 70's with my soon to be wife. Great times. RIP darling, miss you every day.

I saw BTO in '74! It was my first concert, and they played this song! Great reaction guys!
I seriously love that you guys have embraced Canadian artists!!! ❤️🇨🇦
This song was just written as a gag for a family member who had a stutter. Was never intended to be released.
It's fun to see you 2 grooving to this song like that! Keep enjoying.
Loving your reactions you feel it. Usually only watch rap grime etc but every genre bangs and its sick to see you appreciate all genres
70’s…..yes! Love these guys! ❤️🎼🎶❤️✅
They held some kind of festival and set the record for the most guitar players playing a song at the same time! It was this one - playing this riff!
Ba ba ba ba baby you just ain't seen nothing yet!! It's been a minute since I heard that song. I love going back in time with these songs. Thank you!!!

Such a great "Boy, I'm 'bout to rock your world" song! 😄And the chorus hits so hard...
Taking care of business is my favourite BTO song. You may know this as well - it’s been in a couple of tv adverts.
I had this album on tape when i was a kid. I wore it out. 70's classic
We listen a lot to BTO even in Norway back in the 70`s and yes i still have a couple LPs in my collection from them as well 😎👍
Some nice action on the drums. I was a teenager in a band in late 80's, played this and Takin Care of Business. Great material in the 70's for a band.
One of my favorite bands of the 70s👍👍👍👍🤟
I was a sophomore in HS in 1974. Awesome times!
Yep only knew the song when the music started 😂 awesome memories for me…my dad used to play this💞 love it!!!
Randy Bachman was a guitar player with The Guess Who before they split. Please check out The Guess Who someday ☮️💜
When I grow up I want to be in an iconic Canadian rock band

Always dug the stuttering vocals on this one. Taking care of business and Let it ride are classics as well.
That's a classic. Use to be on every jukebox when it came out, and was still on them for a while afterwards. Really great band with several other songs y'all will love.
These guys were the first rock concert I ever went to in 1975. Going to see Bachman and Cummings this June.
I hope you 2 read these comments, because i LOVE this band!!!
Rock-n-Roll in the 70's, love it..Lots more good songs by them,Thanks.

Great song!!!!!!!!! 70s...nothing but great songs!!!!
The first concert I ever attended was BTO.
The special effects consisted of one disco
ball with a light on it. We’ve come a long way!
So many hits here in Canada! BTO was introduced to me by my Uncle Dan in 1975, been a fan since. Thanks for the Canadian content guys!
The soundtrack of my formative years! Thanks, guys! ❤💯💥
This takes me back to the best decade in musical terms great sounds great bands and singers nothing like it these days in the 2022s
BTO ...Loved their music,driving around on weekends during the 70’s .”Let It Run”is a good one
I saw them perform at old CNE Stadium in Toronto in 1975.....what a great show!
"Let It Ride" is a banger. Perfect driving song! ❤️😎
Rock anthem and an absolute classic, never gets old still 🔥 bbbbbbbbaby
For me, one of the best rock tracks ever, that riff just hooks you from the start & you can't get away.
Brothers Randy & Robbie Bachman & Fred Turner went into overdrive! Randy wrote this song & performed this as a joke to his brother who stuttered. Great band!!

This was a great bon-fire, summer night jam, back in my day... Thanx for the memories, Peace
Randy Bachman was founding member of Guess Who.and his son is Tai Bachman. Another song you would enjoy from them is Taking Care of Business
Randy Bachman, guitar and singer. Fred Turner, bassist and singer. One of the best rock bands from the early to mid 70's.
Randy Backman's chord progression in this composition enamored me with this song
Some damn fine songs you been listening to. I’m here for it for sure.
Another great Canadian rock band!
love all your canadian content keep it coming 🎸👍
BTO played at a county fair in Portland, OR 1980, and rocked as hard as their recordings!
Great band during their time
One of the best 1970th song!!! 😃
overdrive is a magizine in canada bachman plays guitar turner plays base

Great Canadian band! Then Burton Cummings joined the band and they became "The Guess Who" . One great song of theirs was "American Woan"
The singer Randy Bachman, his brother the bass player is a stutter and he wrote this song and stuttered in it for his brother.. what a great song.. they have plenty more also.
"taking care of business" is a must from them 😉 love you two 💞
Loved those damn bell bottoms and mini shirts
Real fun back in the day
And we danced our asses off. 👏✌️🙏🏼🕊️🔥

This song reminds of playing Pop Warner football in the mid 70s. Hot summer. Painful hits. And dehydrated. Yes I feel this song.
Yo, you guys REACT! Get into the groove of these old vibes! Keep um coming Y'all! 🤗🔥👏😋
LOVE!!! Thanks for reacting to this song! Love this group?!
"Taking Care of Business" by BTO is a good song for you guys ...BJ and Asia to react to.
Grew up to them in Canada Ahhhh great memories
Throw back to a better time👍👍💙💙
THE OZARK MOUNTAIN DAREDEVILS, "Jackie Blue"
Also - *If You Want To Get To Heaven, You Got to Raise A Little Hell*
The stuttering was done as a joke because the brother of Randy Bachman (lead singer) stuttered. It wasn't supposed to be kept in, but was anyway.
They had many hits but their 2 best hidden gems are "Little Gandy Dancer" and "Hold Back The Water". Roll and rock to the max.
Love that Canadian Rock n' Roll !!!!!
Great Canadian band...thanks
They're both from the Canadian band the Guess Who: Their last names are Bachman and Turner
drummer makes some great fills
You guys are so much fun to watch. Asia you are just drop dead gorgeous, and BJ handsome and witty… and you both seem to really like 70’s music ❤️❤️👍
Such a comical song every time I hear it on the radio haha.
I used to listen to this daily as a teenager
Great Song ! Great Band! Saw them in concert 4 times… this One of my favorites … Try their song ‘Not Fragile’! ‘. It’s awesome too!
My, my, my. !!!! Y'alll hitting on an some good stuff!!!; Excuse me while i pull out my headband!!!!
Great band , great song
He stutters in the song because the dude that wrote the song stuttered, but he passed away
. so they sang the song like that in his memory
Overdrive: 'A state of heightened activity or concentration.' That's Randy Bachman on vocals.
Legends and still a great rock track
