Thank you Randy for some of the greatest songs of all time. I’ve been an absolute fan since the early days of the GUESS WHO…and even saw you and the GUESS WHO in the very early 70’s in San Antonio, TX., at the Municipal Auditorium…!
Good afternoon my friends I was born in 1955 to Randy Bachman one of Canada's best music 🎶🎵 to in this era of music to Today's music 🎶 is like garbage to Am still listening to this music in august of 2024 to
I had a band with my three brothers back in the 70's, Ben, and we did that one. It was always a crowd-pleaser, especially at high school dances and wedding receptions!
Okay. But I've never heard of it either. I had to look it up and then I almost fell asleep listening to it. Same with Keith Richards talking about "Malaguena." I do know about Les Paul however. Rock icon Steve Miller got some guitar lessons from him in Texas.
The first time I heard American woman live was in 76' when Burton Cummings opened for Alice Cooper . Since then I heard America woman at the TEXXAS JAM in Dallas ( Deep Purple was the headliner I believe and that STADIUM WENT INSANE !!!!! Those were the GOLDEN DAYS ! PK
Randy Bachman is beyond cool. Why the Guess Who isn’t in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame is a confounding mystery. I could turn on a classic radio station right now and hear the Guess Who or BTO within 10 minutes. Randy Bachman’s music is synonymous with classic rock and roll. Absolute legend and proud 🇨🇦!
I've learned to ignore the RRHOF, it's politics and a "cool kids club", and there are so many left out, it just can't be looked at as a legit hall of fame.
I was in a Miss Sixteen contest in Nashville, TN ( I’m 67 years young now) BTO & The J. Geils Band played there at the Fairgrounds I believe in 1973 or 1974.
RB personifies "Cool"! Thanks Randy for all the great music and a son that I only recently realized has his own place in music history. (Let me clarify, Tal made his mark over 20 years ago, I just recently realized he was your son! 😮)
Some one made comment about these gals needing to close it. Hey....ya ever been excited to meet someone? I would be excited to talk with Randy as well!
They weren’t that bad. They certainly don’t look like two rock chicks from back in the days of the rock clubs. I thought they did quite well. Randy seemed to be enjoying it.
Would you have preferred he not talk about himself when asked? He seems like a nice guy and is deserving of his fame. He was generous when talking about other artists and proud of his son. So you've said your peace. I'm guessing it made you feel better about yourself and filled a gap of something that's missing in your life.
The women didn't know jack about classic rock or guitars. Randy explaining how he actually started playing and writing American woman on stage by accident, and they didn't have a clue what he was talking about.
Terribly sad that Randy lost his brothers Tim and Robbie in a very short time within the past year. Still with such horrific losses Randy looks great . His voice has changed very little in 50+ years. Randy never drank or used drugs and wouldn't let band members do it either. Wow it seemed like it's 1969 in the present when he did the American Woman riffs on his guitar. Wow !! Those women missed out a lot in not being alive to see the 1970s and hear that music when new.
Mr. Bachman is a national hairo! A true Hawk 🦅. Good on you, Randy, for emerging from the bunker. Hopefully, you'll get some Michelin grade chicken balls on the way!
Too weird...My first guitar teacher was a Gretsch dealer and Ive wanted a Gretsch since 64. Well im 71 and just boughtt my first Orange 6120 ...then a 5120 with TV Jones pickups .. Randys story of the writing of No Sugar Tonight is one of my favs! on a street in Berkeley Ca Its somewhere here online....hes the best storyteller of musicians I know. That Les Paul looks new! wow
These 2 interviewers have absolutely no business interviewing legend Randy Bachman. Completely clueless about the subject matter and total embarrassment.
I was thinking that too. They didn't know who Les Paul was and have no clue about him or his work. Their musical tastes probably doesn't go back more than ten years. Me, most of the time I'm listening to the 60s to the 80s.
The host almost embarrassing . Did no homework on their guest . Great producer of lack of a producer . Randy is kind of playing it out with class and trying not to make the host not look like complete bimbos.
It's not genetics/DNA! It's about practice, practice, practice! The right teacher will certainly help. But if you're not dedicated to being great, you won't make it.
Only the super rich could ever afford these near-priceless guitars. It's too bad there wasn't at least some sort of lottery system to get these into the hands of real fans.
holy shet, i've just stumbled upon the two most irritating people on the planet doing that interview. its like they learned their craft from an old Saturday Night skit.
What a GEM you are Mr. Bachman
Thank you Randy for some of the greatest songs of all time. I’ve been an absolute fan since the early days of the GUESS WHO…and even saw you and the GUESS WHO in the very early 70’s in San Antonio, TX., at the Municipal Auditorium…!
What a legend i love Randy Bachman, from earliest days till today. Let it ride.
A true Canadian legend.
RB is such a talent and seems like such a nice guy. I love his stories.
Hands down Randy is one of the Best! Watching him and Turner sing and play is magical.
BTO 4EVA! 🦅
A nice man, true gentleman and a legend in his own time. I’ve had the privilege of attending a NHL Hockey Game with him in Vancouver BC.
Priceless!! 😁
Thank you Randy for the music and the memories of my life ! 💓🤗
Memories indeed !! BTO was one of the hottest new acts in 1974, my junior year in high school. I'll be humming their tunes for awhile now.
За америкен вуман ренди надо поставиь памятник .....
I'm a little young for a Randy Bachman fan, but he's the entire reason I ever wanted to learn to play guitar. That was 27 years ago. Thank you Randy.
Legend! Randy and his backup sing Burton did amazing things before he founded another great band.. BTO
Well Burton was not exactly a backup singer. He was the singer of Guess Who and American Woman. They were equals.
Hahaha! Nice
Good afternoon my friends
I was born in 1955 to
Randy Bachman one of Canada's best music 🎶🎵 to in this era of music to
Today's music 🎶 is like garbage to
Am still listening to this music in august of 2024 to
LET IT RIDE IS A GREAT SONG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I had a band with my three brothers back in the 70's, Ben, and we did that one. It was always a crowd-pleaser, especially at high school dances and wedding receptions!
Randy talking about the 2nd chord of Desafinado and the hosts giving a blank look gives me joy
And they did not know who Les Paul was or why his name is on guitars. They must not listen to anything before 2000 or 2010.
Randy also mentioned Joe Pass. A true virtuoso. Pretty sure the ladies don't know who Jos Pass was. Maybe I'm wrong... but I doubt it.
I wrote Rock N Roll Hall of Fame and told them to get Randy in there 😊
Okay. But I've never heard of it either. I had to look it up and then I almost fell asleep listening to it. Same with Keith Richards talking about "Malaguena." I do know about Les Paul however. Rock icon Steve Miller got some guitar lessons from him in Texas.
@@sirwinston2368Never heard of Joe Pass either. I think I'll be fine.
I love Takin Care of Business and the sound of that blasting Fender Stratocaster guitar and those chords!
so great to hear Randy found his guitar -- had my 335 stolen in 88 --still crying
The first time I heard American woman live was in 76' when Burton Cummings opened for Alice Cooper . Since then I heard America woman at the TEXXAS JAM in Dallas ( Deep Purple was the headliner I believe and that STADIUM WENT INSANE !!!!! Those were the GOLDEN DAYS ! PK
Randy is probably the best explainer of rock ever. Alice and Ringo too
His show vinal tap on cbc for years were just full of stories as he met every rock star in the world and had great stories.
So nice to hear him hosting the Elephant Graveyard radio hour too.
he wrote "These Eyes" 55 years ago and it was a #1 hit
@@garryallan824
no it was written by Randy Bachman
And it's officially credited to Bachman/Cummings.

Randy always looks great!
Wow..Mr Bachman was very relaxed indeed ..nice interwiew..and interviewers also...😀👍🇸🇻
Love the video where Randy shows how to play 'Lookin Out For #1', one of my favorite songs by him.
Great interview. Randy is both a brilliant player and composer. His body of work is simply remarkable.. ✌️💜
🤟🤟 🎸 👊🖤
The best rock and roll story teller in the world right there.
All the best Randy from your Good Friend Mark From Maple 🍁 Grove Mn USA 🎉
I was in a Miss Sixteen contest in Nashville, TN ( I’m 67 years young now) BTO & The J. Geils Band played there at the Fairgrounds I believe in 1973 or 1974.
Did you win???
@@PP-gy8gg -2nd place 😉
@@ingenunis5003 Troll her online. Stay well.
It's good to see Randy still Touring . Two Nice Young Ladies' :) QC
Thanks for the video and thanks Randy B...
I still play this song
You're a legend Randy. Still all the songs on my motorcycle MP3 rotation. Not Fragile!
Wow ! Truly a legend . What a treat . ❤
Good seeing him again I haven't seen him for quite a while. I first saw BTO in 1973 and probably saw them 8 or 10 times. 👍
I'm so happy that I'm in his generation!!
We have friends and family decades younger listening to classic rock
Randy should be in the Rock Hall of Fame with the Guess Who and with BTO. And by the way one of Randy's favorite artist is Jeff Lynne from ELO.
His work on the Elephant Graveyard Radio Hour rocks! 🤘
That was an exciting interview
Not bad for an old Toban. His book is a great read. His Sunday radio nights were great from vancouver
What a legend!! Hero!! Ladies i like your interview style..
RB personifies "Cool"! Thanks Randy for all the great music and a son that I only recently realized has his own place in music history. (Let me clarify, Tal made his mark over 20 years ago, I just recently realized he was your son! 😮)
Handy Randy very underrated
My first album was BTO In 74 .. a bit part of the soundtrack of my youth ..❤
What a legend !!! 👏👏🏼👏🏻👏🏿
Randy my fav
From his BTO days, I love Hold Back the Water and Gandy Dancer.
My favorite is "Blue Collar"
WOW WOW WOW! What a story!
Burton Cummings is still in Winnipeg.
The best of BTO on 8-track tape wore in put my son !
Always has good stories to go along with the songs. He says his name is pronounced >>>BACKMAN.
I never knew Randy was Guess Who! Very cool!
Where've you been?
Just kidding. Glad you found this out.
its a 59 les paul i dont know what that means
Those women probably don't listen to music more than 10 or 15 years old if that and have no idea who Les Paul was.
I LOVE BTO!!! 🎉🎉🎉❤
Randy's legendary lost and found guitar is NOT the Gibson LP Sunburst in this segment. It is a Chet Atkins 6120 Gretsch Orange - What's going on?
Fantastic I saw him at brassy's Cocoa Beach in the 80s❤
I seen him in the 70s at Long Beach area in California
he pronounces it Back-man. Heard interview with him years ago. He said you can pronounce it anyway you want as long as the checks clear.
He said in Canada its pronounced Back man. here in u s bachman.
Some one made comment about these gals needing to close it. Hey....ya ever been excited to meet someone? I would be excited to talk with Randy as well!
Fun interview 😃
Thanks for opening for Van Halen was fun
Man, I love Randy’s podcast on the elephant graveyard. Go check it out if you get a chance I mean it’s absolutely amazing.
You rule. I just looked him up to see if anyone would mention the show in the comments. Whoever's behind that channel is a genius.
American Woman written at the Glenbriar Curling Club in Waterloo Ontario Canada.
I sold Randy Bachmann a pair of Teletronix LA-2As in the 1990s and then I had to teach his engineer how to refurbish them.
you poor soul....what a troubling saga! hope u got thetapy?
Those two women need to know when to shut up.
They weren’t that bad. They certainly don’t look like two rock chicks from back in the days of the rock clubs. I thought they did quite well. Randy seemed to be enjoying it.
@@ponytrekker8996 Truly awful and amateurish.
True Randy fan ☝️, but I'd bet they have great cans, so Randy lettum do that
That’s for sure!
Oh, come on. It's supposed to be a fun segment. They're annoying, of course. I actually thought it was cute, and I believe Randy did too.
Randy is 👍
Everyone, stand up and -------> *_"Clap For The Wolfman"_*
The pain one endures to appear on a bush league show like _New York Living._
Always love hearing Randy speak, the female hosts almost ruined a good interview. They are the weakest link.
These hosts remind me of the Schwetty balls sketch on SNL
Holy shit!! A 1959 Les Paul!! The holy grail of electric guitars!!! Five and six digit price!!
thats a million dollar guitar. easily.
I dont think thats the exact one ...looks too new. Hes smart enough not to take it out. What a wonderful guy!!
No one is more impressed with Randy Bachman than Randy Bachman.
Finally someone who has described what has eluded me for decades. Thank you.
Nonsense. Bachman is a songwriting and guitar legend. Well-deserved.
@@BeatlesCentricUniverse No one, least of all me, is denying that. However, I still stand fully by my comment.
Exactly....I'm surprised I don't see this comment more often. I'm always put off by his interviews....
Would you have preferred he not talk about himself when asked?
He seems like a nice guy and is deserving of his fame. He was generous when talking about other artists and proud of his son.
So you've said your peace. I'm guessing it made you feel better about yourself and filled a gap of something that's missing in your life.
The women didn't know jack about classic rock or guitars. Randy explaining how he actually started playing and writing American woman on stage by accident, and they didn't have a clue what he was talking about.
For those who thought Randy was settling down and retiring from performing, well, you ain't seen nothin' yet
Terribly sad that Randy lost his brothers Tim and Robbie in a very short time within the past year. Still with such horrific losses Randy looks great . His voice has changed very little in 50+ years. Randy never drank or used drugs and wouldn't let band members do it either.
Wow it seemed like it's 1969 in the present when he did the American Woman riffs on his guitar. Wow !!
Those women missed out a lot in not being alive to see the 1970s and hear that music when new.
I think Burton is um. experienced...and dabbled in some tnings...
Mr. Bachman is a national hairo! A true Hawk 🦅. Good on you, Randy, for emerging from the bunker. Hopefully, you'll get some Michelin grade chicken balls on the way!
Amen!
Randy should also take credit for Elvis adopting TCB as his logo.
Too weird...My first guitar teacher was a Gretsch dealer and Ive wanted a Gretsch since 64. Well im 71 and just boughtt my first Orange 6120 ...then a 5120 with TV Jones pickups ..
Randys story of the writing of No Sugar Tonight is one of my favs! on a street in Berkeley Ca
Its somewhere here online....hes the best storyteller of musicians I know. That Les Paul looks new! wow
One of Elvis Presleys favorite songs? Takin care of business!
The viking doing a sharon stone impression to get free concert tickets?
You caught him out of the bunker!
It's a 59 Les Paul. She says "I don't know what that means but I love it" Do a little homework before interview!
You should have listened to a Randy Bachman song before you interviewed him. Then you could have a "real" conversation.
Burl Ives played a Les Paul? How cool is that?
I bet those two girls have no idea what they are talking about.
American Woman, You aint seen nothign yet - great songs!
❤
BTO should be in the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame. That organization is embarrassing itself.
How he lost three brothers and I know that's family that's family from covid just went into the airwaves and that was it
That 59 Burst with a Bigsby would be worth, what?... maybe 250-300 thousand? Joe Bonamassa would buy it.
These 2 interviewers have absolutely no business interviewing legend Randy Bachman. Completely clueless about the subject matter and total embarrassment.
I was thinking that too. They didn't know who Les Paul was and have no clue about him or his work. Their musical tastes probably doesn't go back more than ten years. Me, most of the time I'm listening to the 60s to the 80s.
That is the worst Randy Bachman interview of all time
Blondie, what is with the false eyelashes?
I can’t wait to see that.
Hes also a Billionaire and owns Virgin Airways
