Criminally underrated.
No shite!!! Just seeing this for the first time. Easily up there with the very best 70's rock.
@@haysfordays their 1973-77 era discography is among the best, especially in the realm of Canadian rock.
This Canadian band should be in the hall of fame.
They woulda if they coulda
USA HOF is a joke. BTO def belongs….
You got that right. Better yet; Musician & Writers HF. A Great Band!!
Absolutely 💯
Damn straight
IDK why, but rock musicians seldom look like stocky, blue collar types, like the Bachmans and Fred Turner. It’s kind of refreshing, to see rock stars that actually look like a lot their fans.
Well, their physiques matched their voices.
Rap groups in the hall of fame ???? Listen to these guys!!!
Fred Turner has that special rock voice!
...Love Fred Turner's Fist Pounding Arena Rock Vocals!...Look Like pack of Vikings!!!
Fred turner and raimond voss from the german Band Torfrock have the deepest and strongest voices, i ' ve ever heard
Nice! All 3 Bachman brothers with Fred Turner. Love Midnight Special
Amen
Fab!
C.F. Turner was sounding good!!
Yes 🙂
Robbie and Tim takin care of business
I’m smiling from ear to ear, from the memories this brings. Gimme my 70’s back. 😊
Ya my feeling too!
Good old fashioned Canadian blue collar rock and roll. BTO was one of the best of Canadian rock.
Grad party in the bush, off the main highway, small B.C. town in the Rockies (Cranbrook). Tour bus driving by saw the lights and they stopped in and had a beer with us. This was June 1972. It was the band "Brave Belt". Randy and his Guess Who band mates, except Burton, (they had a falling out). What a pleasant surprise for a bunch of drunk 17 year olds who were into Rock.
That must have been amazing 👍✌️
Fucking awesome story!
So cool a story, man. Brave Belt were pretty good. When you hear some of their stuff it sounds fairly similar to what they did in BTO.
Bachman --- Turner Overdrive ( the 1970's decade's line --- up or band mates or band members ) : the legendary Randy Bachman --- Chief lead guitarist,background vocals and lead vocals the gifted Fred Turner --- lead vocals,background vocals and bass guitar the amazing Tim Bachman --- rhythm guitar,background vocals and possibly lead guitar as well the incredible Rob or Robby Bachman --- drums and percussion
Cruising in the '69 GTO listening to this song on the 8 track!
68 GTO for me 😁😁😁
The sound of these guys was very distinctive, such a good band !!
A great tune, not everyone knows this one.
Yea and another great one is blue collar
I played this over and over love this song
@@jamesmack3314yes! This Cajun man's favorite BTO tune.
@@dehydratedwater9806 it’s on a higher level that some of the other tunes very cool arrangement and played with style and precision
@@jamesmack3314 and a different kind of laid back chill.
WOW! The Bachman brothers and Fred Turner!
I was fourteen years old when I first heard this song and have loved it ever since. Made this California kid a fan for life!🎸🎸🎸🥁
The guitar Player, right on stage, was it Tim bachman ? i only remember randy and robbie.
@@cosmopolit670 Yes, Tim Bachman! Great guitar player, not sure why he left, but Blair Thornton was just as great 👍😎
@@JoseRamirez-nw7pg thank you for your quick answer. I think , Tim made a career as a music Manager or Producer later, greetings from germany
@@cosmopolit670 Thank you for your update as well! Greetings from Northern California 🎸😎!
No one can growl like CF Turner! Honestly, neither he nor Bachman or ever going to win, male vocalist of the year, but it worked for them for a very, very long time!
For different tastes, different colors....To be honest, I prefer those Turner's growls much more than that Robert Plant's affeminate voice.
CF Turner is like Lemmy, the singing is the opposite of what you'd be taught in singing lessons but it fits the music perfectly and has passion and feeling to it
And he sang just like this all the way up to his retirement! And you would think that he would have a big gruff speaking voice because of how he sounds when he sings, but his speaking voice is actually fairly soft and normal. Isn't that strange, indeed.
Great you see all the Bachman brothers on stage together.
BTO is supporting their very first album here! BTO II didn't come out until a couple months later in December 1973.
Randy was already well known from The Guess Who, without that connection BTO is never on this TV slot. It makes you wonder how many great bands there are/were that never see the light of day
Major goose bumps the moment he began to sing - right back to 1974 !
Turner sure had a John Fogerty vibe. Perfect timing as BTO took off just as CCR had come to an end.
Like CCR on steroids
Fred Turner has that whiskey & cigarette raspy voice, nothing like John Fogerty.
@@MichaelSSmith-hs5pwPoint well taken, Mike. However; Fogerty sorta had a raspy voice himself. W/that said; while CCR's my all-time fave band, BTO's in the same stratosphere.
@@billybandyk0720
Yeah, I like them both equally for different reasons.👍
@@MichaelSSmith-hs5pw KOOL!!!!! Glad 2 hear, Mike. W/that said; give me some "Blue Collar" as I 'm "Looking Out For #1" as I "Roll On Down The Highway" while I'm "Takin' Care Of Business" bc *You Ain't Seen Nothing Yet". There4; I'm goin' "Down, Down".
Fred Turner is the best!!
That voice is unbelievable, and unique!
Apart from John Fogerty of CCR perhaps?
@@paulbissitt4754 My two very favorite voices, followed by Jack Russell from Great White.
Just listen to those awesome solos from Randy. Simply phenomenal! The sound that made a kid from the Midwest a rock fan for life.
he's showing that strat who's boss!
My God.
Easily duplicated and not unique
@@nathandodge665 - So are your trite comments.
@@shyman99 not unique
Love this song and Fred Turner has one of the best voices in Rock
As a fellow Canadian, I am proud of these Rockers.
As an American, I am proud of these Canadian rockers!
@@abelincoln3287 As Canadian I'm proud to have American as my brother.
@@abelincoln3287I totally agree! Well said! 😊
Industrial strength R&R, pure and simple!
One of my favorite bands from the early 70’s. Great driving tunes.
🤟🏽🤟🏽🤟🏽🤟🏽🤟🏽🤟🏽🤟🏽🤟🏽🤟🏽🤟🏽🤟🏽🤟🏽
Heck Ya !!!
RIP Tim & Rob.
Yeah, I was really sad to hear of Tim's passing. He was a good friend and a sweet dude.
Back to a time when you plugged your shit in, cranked it up, and just played!! ❤ As a kid in the mid-70's, my parents played Cheap Trick, Foghat, and BTO!!! I love watching those old school drummers, especially!
He was a Ringo disciple...whipping that hi hat like a whore on Friday night!
Saw them twice. '73 and '79.
Awesome.... One of them groups raised upon.
The Bachman brothers & Fred Turner ruled the mid 70s!🎶🎸👌
Damn fuckin' right, Mike; they sure did.
@@billybandyk0720
👍👌✌️🎸🎶🎵👏
@@MichaelSSmith-hs5pw Being from Detroit, MI, USA (a stone's throw away from Windsor, ONT, CAN); I've always had an affinity 4 Canadian musicians (BTO & Ian Thomas in particular).
@@billybandyk0720
Yeah, BTO, Canada’s claim to fame for sure.
🎶💕
@@MichaelSSmith-hs5pw U betcha along w/The Guess Who (Randy's original band).
The same line-up minus one from the previous band Brave Belt. The first Bachman-Turner Overdrive album was going to be called "Brave Belt III" but became of course the self-titled "Bachman-Turner Overdrive". These guys knew how to rock and entertain a crowd.
I remember this episode very well since this was a late night show my Mom allowed me to watch at 12 years old. Those times are gone forever sadly. This was one of the very best shows on TV ahead of Don Kirshner's Rock Concert and Saturday Night!
Good gravy, how is this man not in ANY top male rock vocalists? That's insane brother.
The only group that could be both the band and the bouncer
Wouldn't want to mess with Fred Turner in those days. 😄
@@gabriel38gI’d say any one of the band members here, could sure mess someone up if they felt inclined 🤛 🤜 😉
I'm sure they could Take Care of Business.
From our Hometown and Managed by B.A. they were destined for success Thank you T M S
They had a sound all their own. And I just smile watching Robbie Bang them drums rest in peace, brother.
BTO and Grand Funk RR were my gateway to hard rock as a kid back in '74. Never looked back! Still have my old BTO vinyls and their 1st album (with this song and Blue Collar) still kicks major @$$!✌🤘👍
I came here to say much the same thing. The Beatles were my first and favorite rock band. But when they broke up, I immediately turned to BTO and Grand Funk Railroad. Both bands were so hard driving, that they appealed greatly to this teenage boy back then. And here I am, 63 years old and I'm still rocking to BTO and GFR! Cheers!
Blue collar is a frickin great song….maybe their best
You're not kidding! Back in '73 it was fast cars and high school girls with BTO and Grand Funk in the old eight track, drinking beer and drive in movies! Those sure were the "good old days!" Miss them dearly!
Blue Collar is all time classic.
@@waynejohanson1083 such a cool song….
What a great band. Not many rockers come close to Turner's powerhouse vocals.
This is just great. Can’t think of any other words. Bachman-turner overdrive I think is one of the more underrated rock groups ever.
Kudos, to the Midnight Special, for putting on such amazing groups with endless talent 🎉🎉. I grew up watching the Midnight Special, and it was the best show ever on Saturday night 🎉🎉. This really takes me back to my youth when rock and roll was rock and roll 🎉🎉
R.I.P. to Robbie and Tim Bachman. ❤
Tim Bachman - only video Ive seen of him with the band before he left and Blair Thornton joined the band ! One of my favourite songs off BTO II
God the level of musicianship back then as a musician man I wish I lived back then
The 70's wouldn't be complete without BTO.
Hall of Fame hands Down
I worked with Randy from '84 to '93....played drums in the studio and on tour.......so cool to see this version of BTO (with Timmy & Robbie Bachman, both of who died recently), and Fred, singing like a Harley......brings back so many memories
now this is REAL rock, that way rock is supposed to sound
I remember seeing these guys for the first time ,It was on The Midnight Special....I was completly blown away.I still love their music.
Young people.....behold, the wonder of true rock and roll!
If you don't know BTO go and get ya some, you wont be sorry. You aint seen nothin yet!!
73-74 the peak of R&R.
One of my favorite B. T. O songs along with Hold Back The Water.. Greg
Thin Lizzy toured with them in 1975. Lizzy guitarist Brian Robertson said each member of BTO woluld eat a bucket of Kentucky Fried Chicken other each gig. He also said BTO were Mormons and oldest brother Randy would lock younger brother Robbie (drummer) in his hotal room so he wouldn't party with Thin Lizzy. Seems Robbie got drunk on the first night of the tour. Also, Randy was one of, if not the first to put humbucker pick-ups on a Strat body.
Yeah, hard to believe those guys could resist all the debauchery back then, but I guess Randy was a real saint so to speak
Haha!! Crazy story about their huge appetites & locking up poor lil’ Robbie in his hotel room, smart move, big brother. Thin Lizzy was the definition of a “party band!!” Thanks for sharing! 😂
🎶🎵🎶.."gimme your chicken please" 🎵🎶🎵....
@@michaelkoszowski3716 🤣 😂 WTH, that’s so funny!! 🍗
He is no longer a mormon. His son Tal had lost his faith in that religion and Randy also saw the light so no longer follows it.
No lip synching there! As it should be…great live performance!👍
Fred Turner has one of the greatest rock voices ever. BTO are simply awesome.
Sure wish I had a chance to see the lads.
Que grandes BTO mi hermana la ponía en tornamesa cuando aun yo era pequeño. Q recuerdo.mi banda preferida.salud9s desde Lima.Perú 😎
Randy bad ass,Guitar 🎸 player..BTO,,FOREVER 😊
And these guys aren't in the rock and roll hall of fame? Shame on those folks! Rock on brothers!🎸
The rrhof is a crock of shit...
Maybe they're just waiting for Randy to die, too.
They said first Taylor Kelce Swift gets in and then after that BTO
I emailed with Robbie once…..asked him if he still lived in Canada…He said..”only in the summer”..I replied..”smart man!” …
RIP Tim & Rob Bachman!✌✌
Love this song 2024 ROCK ON 👍🥰👍
One of the Best Canadian bands💞🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🎖️
The best imho, as a Brit.
Rock hall of fame they disgust me
Truck stop bruisers. Im in England and was 10 when You Aint Seen Nothin' Yet came out so im not familiar with their other songs but this is great. These Midnight Specials are awesome
I saw them live in 1986 when they opened for Van Halen.
Who knew Randy started the pointy guitar craze. Truly ahead of his time!
All 3 Bachman's with Fred Turner. &0's were Great. And that Fender Sonic Randy is playing.
LOVE IT. Thank You
You are so welcome!
Randy is killing his Strat!
I was 18 in 1973 when BTO started. Got into them real quick and still to this day. First heard them when I was serving on a nuclear submarine in the U.S. Navy. This performance, which I remember watching, makes me smile. I've watched a few times now and it just makes me smile. This was rock and roll to me. BTO. Rest in peace brother Bachman's.
Best rock band in history
Now that’s my kind of in your face rock and roll. I only got to see them twice live over years. Strange that there is no crowd. This must have been one of this Milli Vanilli takes.
Everytime I try to sing this song I'm met with a cough that could put a smoker to shame lol
That was amazing. BTO playing 70s rock live and straight ahead--as it was intended!
Fred Turner is awesome
Looks like the boys had a few Molson's before that gig!! I love it.
Was my very first concert in 1976, been going to concerts ever since, two more years and celebrating 50yrs of concerts. Rock on
Listened while in the US Coast Guard...at 20 years of age....damn good, still remains so...while we are all taking care of business.
Rock 'n Roll, baby!!!
This brings me back to my teens. Just amazing all around band. Fred Turner has an amazing distinct Rock voice.
This is great !!! Thanks midnight special !!!
Gfr The rains still falling on my window pane
Lots of good bands from Winnipeg.
Very rare video of the late Tim Bachman who would soon be replaced by Blair Thornton.
Blair Thorntons contributions to the band cannot be denied. They began incorporating “dual lead” guitar solos with Blair sharing lead guitar parts with primary lead guitarist Randy Bachman.
He’s pretty easy on the eyes, too 😍
yes I didnt realize it was Tim playing on this song as opposed to Blair. Very rare video indeed
@@KittyGrizGriz That's an interesting comment. In his autobiography Randy said that Blair was sold to him as a lead player. "But he wasn't", said Randy.
BTO is a GREAT Band!! 🍁🇨🇦🍁
Fred Turner is straight up Aggressive and Guttural for maximum effect on the lead vocals…big burly men…not to be trifled with!…ooof! 👊 ✊
Randy is rocking that fuzz pedal.
Wow! On my birthday! 👍🇺🇲🇨🇦
🎈🎈Happy Birthday!! 🎉🎂
@@KittyGrizGriz
You're sweet! Thank you! 😊
Freds intonation of the lyric “liquored” @0.47 🥃 is pretty cool!
At least he said please.
What do you expect, they're Canadian!
If you're going to rob somebody, there's no reason why they can't be polite about it.
@@landonlewsaw1762 Nope, the mugger was a American 🙂
Original Line up,, All 3 Brothers on Stage ... Was an awesome time to be a kid
Saw them in a little club in Vegas in 1989.
Fantastic.
Randy had a old amp head build out of plywood.
And almost blew it up.
Fred monster vocals.
That band is timeless,I seen them when I was 13 y o at st Clair college for a chocolate bar wrapper!
Great Music,count myself lucky to have grown up with this band 🎉
Uh.... This is an amazing recording of one of the great 70s rock bands
These guys are phenomenal!
That was some high-energy performance! That should kickoff your Monday!
Happy Monday... thank you for sharing! 💖
Good Ole dayyyys
@@joehartman9045 The best!! 👌
Still listening!!
I was 16 years old the first time I went to a BTO concert.
nobody played that open hi hat better than robbie
I saw them on the Not Fragile tour in 1974. It was my first ever concert and I had a ball.
