"Well, the inmates petitioned for a concert, asking for BTO and DOA. After we played, we found out that the federal government gave them an entertainment grant. Considering that tax payer dollars fund such things, in retrospect, I think it was a mistake. Everyone deserves good music but not out of the pocket of the working man, in my opinion. They called it Jailhouse Rock. I believe it aired on Much Music (Canada's version of MTV). The only way I'd do it again would be if the inmates somehow raised the money themselves." Randy Bachman (August 2018)

BTO is the most underrated rock band of the 70’s and 80’s. Love them .
you got that right an old Winnipeg boy here
Damn my favorite song from BTO is with a doubt Let it Ride,it just kicks ass
Wow. I never realized how AWESOME this band was. REAL ROCKNROLL. Rob is a great drummer and Fred is FIRE!
This is BTO at their prime ...what a great Canadian band...Randy at his finest.. Fred's vocals are spot on ...Blair is playing like a demon...and Robbie was such an amazing drummer...makes me proud to be a Canadian that grew up listening to these guys...much respect🙏
Their "prime" was about 12 years earlier
Just an average band really
Robbie wasn't all that amazing. If he was, he would have been asked to join another band after BTO broke up. Or he would have been asked to do session work but he wasn't. Randy taught him how to play, just well enough to play those songs.
Fred Turner is just a powerhouse vocalist and bass player that deserves way more recognition than he gets.
I agree completely 🤙
He reminds me of Dusty Hill.. kinda short with fat little fingers and you nailed it.. both of them were 💪💯💪 Powerhouse 🎶👀
one of the best 70s rock voices
You need to remember , this band is a 70s band.. and they were known worldwide.. they were recognized as some of the greatest
I read the comments at the end of the video from Mr. Bachman regarding the funding for their performance being paid for by the Federal Government. My Name is Fred Chester and I was the government official that managed this event. The inmates of Saskatchewan Penitentiary did pay for the performances of BTO and DOA from their personal funds and Much Music as corporate sponsor for The Big Ticket Special. The Jailhouse Rock event (Saskatchewan Battle of The Bands) was a promotional event for up and coming bands in Saskatchewan and was funded through corporate sponsorship. Saskatchewan Penitentiary did provide the stage and lights. I apologize to Mr. Bachman for any misunderstanding or negative feed back he may have received...but he was paid by the inmates. In closing the positive impact that their group had left inmate population made working in the Maximum Security Prison much less tense for many months to follow.
Hi Fred. You know, the very fact that they took the time to play in the prison speaks volumes to me about who Bachman Turner Overdrive is as a group and individual people. Totally big name, kick ass rock and roll in a very modest setting. Prison ministry work is its own reward. Every minute spent in connecting with inmates will give you many multiples of grace in return. Job well done, my friend. In what year did this prison concert take place?
Never mind the question. Duh! The year is in the video title. Randy's slow this morning! :)
@@randymudge7435 1988
@@randymudge7435 This was the last annual event of three....the previous year was Long Jonh Baldry and Katherine MacDonald....who also did a charity benefit in the park for disabled children sponsored by the inmates of Sask Pen and the local 99FM radio station, Coke a Cola,and Gordie Brandts Music in Prince Albert Sask.
Wow man that's probably one of the best real Rock'n'roll jailhouse stories I've heard.
I'm not sure what went down about the band not being happy.
But I'm sure the inmates were.
You're a good man with good intentions.
I hope either the prison, the band or inmates thanked you personally... eventually.
I'll have to re read your comment.
It's restored my faith in humanity.
Prisons are not a great environment.
Compassion and concern would be viewed as weakness.
Not me brother it took balls of steel and a true Rock'n'roll heart to get that done ( especially with the constraints of power and authority figures dying to take it all down).
Which reminds me. Please watch Hail Hail Rock'n'roll DVD - either one of the bonus editions with amazing extra footage.
Check out what happened when Chuck took the film's production crew to his old prison for an impromptu day visit .
You'll know what I mean lol.
Cheers from Australia
No bullshit.
No posing.
No airs and graces.
Straight ahead
Original
Rock'n'roll.
Even at 7 in 1970 I new they were the real deal.
And Not Fragile
Thanks lads
No posing? Have you seen the drummer?
Twice in a powerhouse group Randy Bachman you are a Canadian Legand
Fred turner voice sounds good
Too bad music is not like this anymore!
As a former inmate in a stateside prison, I can honestly say that every minute an inmate spends occupying his mind with things that don't involve prison is a minute he DOESN'T spend in prison. Kudos to BTO for putting a show on for these guys!
What do you know. Another criminal who doesn't understand the basic concept of incarceration. It's not supposed to be " fun." It's punishment for bad actions.
You're only in prison when you're awake. Been there.
10000%
@@RodCalidge another angry man who thinks he’s better than others, shameful ! Let he who is without sin cast the first stone….
There is always an A Hole in the bunch. Congratuations.

God damn, Fred Turner is a BEAST.
NO ONE can top this!
One of the best there is. One of my favorites of the seventies
Great Band! One of my all time favorites
I forgot how many great hits BTO had in the 70s. Thank You
Fred Turner ,Randy Bachman & the band was pure rock and roll ,saw them in the early 80's in St Louis at westport playhouse most excellent show ,I fix AC in Florida ,went to a St Pete beach condo and saw a electric guitar and bass in a room ,asked the guy if he is the player,said yes ,well what kind of music ? Rock ,stupid me ,plates from Winnipeg on the ticket name Fred Turner, very cool & nice person ,always willing to tell stories of the tours ,the times i returned for yearly routine service of the furnace ,very cool dude!!
Always loved their music 😊
I was an inmate at this show. We sold raisin wine, wiener fondling, and tossed salads to raise funds for this show. Thanks BTO!
😂😂
There's always one idiot that makes a stupid comment.
So that answers the question re where did you learn your trade?
NOT FRAGILE--1974---GREAT ALBUM! period
Top 20 of rocks greatest albums, including Nazareth "Hair of the Dog".
Solo rock puro desde chile mach7
That distinctive growl voice of Turner sooooo good. Underated singer for sure. They played so well in this concert
One of the greatest bands ever. Rest In Peace Robbie.
Esa es miusic rock puro que falto n rock in rio de 1985 por siempre bto chileee mach7😢
Always great...one of them great bands that always put on a good show..very dependable in a rock n roll way!!
BTO was my late brother,s favorite group as he was 10 years older than me .He would listen to them on vinyl in the house and on 8 track in his dodge challenger.So many memories, and these songs are very nostalgic to me.Thank you for posting this video.
Bachman and Turner played the half-time show several years back for the Grey Cup in Edmonton.
I think they started with this song and I was thunderstruck!
It was 1973 all over again - they hadn't degraded at all!
I love this band !!! Let it Roll !!
Outstanding performance. I grew up listening to BTO. I never knew they played at the Pen.
They were unique and one of the best. Outstanding live performance. Smiling from ear to ear.
Fantastic!!!!!!👍👍👍
Great to see the original lineup with Blair !
Now that's what I call a captive audience. First BTO show I ever saw without a cloud of pot smoke over the crowd
Lmao how true
Que recuerdos cuando tenia 18 años desde chile angel mach7
Damn that's good! Love BTO
Amazing ❤
I watched this live on Much Music back in the day .
I wonder how many bands actually take the time to do this. Just shows what a great band they were! Love these guys!!!
Holly Son Of Saskatchewan ! 🎸🏒
Great band ..so many rockin tunes ..rip to the drummer
The best canadian rock
Got to see BTO in a ice skating rink of all places. It was just before they hit the big time. I knew then they'd make it. Fantastic band.
Brings The Good Old Days Back......Thanks
I got to introduce them when they were the first band to play on the bowling alley. Randy said just say BTO when you introduce the band. Incredible night. Only band Not to have alcohol in their dressing room
When I was old enough to get into a bar for a show, first show was Rare Earth and BTO at the Newport Music Hall in Columbus, Ohio. Both bands were amazing, and it was an incredible night. This video just reminds me of how great these guys are, and how special that show was for me.
One if my favorite bands of all time…. To be honest there are a couple songs that I’m not into.. but I still recognize the extraordinary talent.. I like their rocking stuff more than the contemporary leaning ..
Why aren't these guys in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame
because the hall is a joke
Yes the Hall of Shame SUCKS! A Hall of Fame is for fucking retired baseball players
@egatycasi At least Randy should be in the hall. He is the only rock'n'roll musician who has written and performed a #1 hit with 2 different bands who isn't in the HOF.
BTO does not need the rock and roll hall of lame. Screw that noise!
they are at ours own Rockn Roll fame. We us that... we are good people. Right?
Sounds just like the studio version!
Bro you just can’t go wrong great band
This must've been a real treat seeing the classic BTO lineup in prison.
band sounds great
Pretty good audio on this! Saw them at the Nassau Coliseum in the 70's and the audience worked as hard as Robby did!
They sure went all out for the locked down bros! Looked like a hell of a good show!
I saw BTO in 1986 at the 99 Club in South Seattle by SeaTac airport it was one of the best live bands I have seen. We were dancing right next to the stage hi 5'n the Band is how close we were. BTO Rocks
Great band
Thanks guys,that was nice to do.
Great band. Saw them perform live in Janesville Wisconsin at the Rock County 4H Fair. 2001 I believe.
This concert really needs to be digitally restored.
Fantastic band and amazing vocals !
They. Kick.Ass!
Wow,great slo ,Randy!Rock our!
What a great event you all put on Fred❣️ ‼️ I'm sitting here at OSF Little Company of Mary Medical Center in Chicago with my mother-in-law, who is battling pneumonia, flu, Covid..on top of fighting cancer..I know she feels kind of imprisoned. This transcends time. So thank you, BTO and all the prisoners who made it happen. Does feel kind of impossible nowadays!
Geweldige band en zeer ondergewaardeerd in Europa, leuk om te zien deze video, klassieke USA rock met soms een vleugje Jazz.
Wow! Sounds as good as the original recordings! Nice!
Agreed. Excellent sound.
Hope Fred is doing well in retirement. Awesome growl!
This is terrific. The best line up.
What a great show! TY for sharing!
For playing at a Canadian venue, I would have liked to see Randy playing his signature Stratocaster with the 🇨🇦 sticker on it.
this is the most Canadian thing I’ve ever seen.
WOW!
Сильнейшие рокеры суперская группа рок 🎸 навсегда здорово 👍
Bachman Turner Overdrive....lo mejor del Hard Rock que salió de Canadá👍🇨🇦
I have a DVD of this performance. BTO was my first favorite band and still is along side Triumph
Robbie Bachman RIP 😪
I've seen KISS, Black Sabbath W/Ozzy, Rush, Sammy Hagar, The James Gang, Edgar Winter W/Rick Derringer, Alice Cooper, Boston, Pantera, Skid Row, Skynyrd W/Ronnie, to name a few but none of them could hold a candle to the performance I saw BTO give at the Montreal Forum in the 70's! For nearly 50 years I have said if I could go back and relive one concert it would be BTO! What an awesome band!!!
Wow you're an Icon dude that's awesome you saw so many great Bands good for you. I'm amazed you still have your brain still intact ? Lol 😆
Right on man,I've been told.😊
CF Turner rockin' out the jams.
BTO was one of the first rock bands I got into, along with Jethro Tull. What a combination. Not at all alike...
What a fantastic show!! thank you for sharing this!
WAAAAAAOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!! I LOVE THIS SONG SINCE I WAS A KID!!!!!!!!
Badass
This is the absolute best performance I have ever heard from them live on an internet video. I did see them way back in the day, but that was 50 years ago.
Love the Peavey 3020HT's being used for monitors :-)
Damn, the Fred Turner vocal songs like Let it Ride, Roll on Down the Highway and Four-Wheel Drive really shine live! How are BTO not in the R&R Hall of Fame?
I saw them in 88 when they were part of the “70s Summer Superfest” tour in Baltimore. I think this was the same set they did!
I remember seeing this when it was first broadcast. Would be awesome to see the DOA set as well... Jon Card lineup
Otros clasicos que faltaron en rock in rio del 1985 😊 mach7
Absolutely amazing live performance.Clap, clap, clap
Se me habia olvidado este grupo, pero son buenisimos...temazo tras temazo...aca en las radios dejaron de tocarlos..
5 volical harmonys an octaviting bass cerated by Bachmann and bass player lead singer tax right off first album had how many #1s best live concert I've have since Johnny Cash's folsom prison blues
Sou brasileiro e nessa época não sabia que eles tinham voltado originalmente.
Uma pena não terem vindo ao Rock in Rio.
🤘HeyNow ! ! ! ✊RightOn ! ! ! 🍻🍺I'll Drink2That ! ! ! ✌❤& Rock&Roll,,,ReallyDigsMySoul 😎
Love BTO! Reminds me of the band Thorun Oakenshield would have had!
C'est vraiment des Bons
🎉 thank you for sharing 🎉 hope you are well God loves you deeply shalom 🤗🐼♥️✝️💐 Philippians 4:8
When he played with that drumstick
WOW
Randy's axemanship is legendary, but his partner, Blair Thornton is BTO's secret weapon.
12:43 That was a surprise: Randy is riffing off of his work on "Friends of Mine" with The Guess Who.
I wish my tax dollars went to more shit like this
Its a good thing to note that prison violence is one of the most costly tax dollar drain.
La mayoria de canciones suenan igual que a las de estudio,demasiado increible.
Da Boyz is damn tight !!!!
Siempre está y quedará en el sentimiento rokero del mundo fue parte de mi juventud 😂
