Yea.. they did wear them though at some concerts … it was just how they all did.. till Neil young and finally ended when nirvana hit the stage… you rarely seen the silly clown outfits anymore
I love the love of all the comments I feel you Brothers and Sisters I was 13 when I first heard this album and it changed my life. I got a guitar and got into a band and the rest is history. I am 62 now and still playing bass in 3 bands where I live man its tough to find players anymore I have always said put music into grade one give kids the chance to pick an instrument because it will change your life if it were not for music and my kitty cats I would not be here.
My favorite band, like watching two Viking warriors sing and play rock and roll. Add in Robbie's drumming and Blair's guitar which just made them greater than the sum of their parts. No band will ever take their place with me.
It took guts for Bachman-Turner Overdrive to put on a show for the prisoners at a men’s penitentiary in Canada. And the audience enjoyed the show very much.
I think I read somewhere an interview Robbie gave where he said he resented doing that concert- didn't feel the convicted criminals deserved it or something along those lines.
@@jeffcoat1959well… one can’t judge the entire bunch.. there are likely a lot that belong there.. but a significant amount of them are probably just regular guts who made a mistake.. sold some weed or some bs .. that’s how all prisons are basically
Yes Sir. BTO, Head East, ARS, Rory Gallagher, Neil Young, UFO, Bad Co., Beatles and so much more. Incredible summer it was. Started working at the Company I'm still at today.
@@johngoguen361 Oh to go back to those days and relive what we had. I wouldn't change anything about what I have today - kids, grandkids, an amazing wife. But to capture those days and the simple feelings we had back then.
Right on, brother. “You ain't seen nothin’ yet” had just hit the airwaves as I was preparing to leave my native New York City (at 17) for Bayou country (Louisiana ) and Southern Rock ( ZZ Top, CCR, Ram Jam, and Lynyrd Skynyrd to name a few). 😎🎸
@@JamesEIvoryIII Lynyrd Skynyrd is as far as I am concerned the best Southern Rock Band who ever played together. They are the reason I ever picked up a guitar.😀
They NEED to be in the R&R Hall of Fame! They have sold OVER 30 MILLION RECORDS now (Read the rest of their stats)> Their 1970s catalogue included five top-40 albums and six US top-40 singles (11 in Canada). BTO has five certified gold albums and one certified platinum album in the US; in Canada, they have six certified platinum albums and one certified gold album. There are several undeserving bands in the R&R HOF with far less album sales too!
WHAT? I assumed they already were in the HOF . What a disgrace to have piss rap in the "Rock and Roll" HOF for PC reasons yet not BTO...I think Left End should get some honorable mentions too
The "Rock and Roll" Hall of Fame is anything but Rock and Roll. People like Frampton, Ted Nugent, BTO, and so many others are snubbed over some rap artist. It's a total disgrace.
Good morning my friend I was born in 1955 to I grew up listening to this music in this era to Randy Bachman is one of canada best musicians to Today's music 🎶🎶 is like garbage to Am still listening to this music in august of 2024 to Randy thanks for this great music to
I did in Mpls MN front row, it was actually too loud, & it can't be too loud for me but the house sound was shitty, still was awesome. I think it was the Not Fragile tour.
I saw these guys on this tour in Columbus Ohio man it was one of the hottest days on record in columbus Randy had on a vest and I mean it was so hot I almost passed out from the heat but these guys played on amazing show will never forget it
I can appreciate and enjoy many different musical genres. If you want to give someone an example of a bonafide ROCK & ROLL song you can't do much better than "Four-wheel Drive" by Bachman-Turner Overdrive! Love it!
Gotta love that drummer/singers dynamic. This song is very unique, it kicks ass, and deserves respect from the major classic rock stations. The crowd is another platinum element here. Sometimes you just gotta squeeze in another BTO to keep the wheel in the skies keep turnin.. dont know where ill b tomorrow
That's Pretty Wicked 😂 I remember having to actually sit in a seat. Enjoy the music. Remember it. Clap Some. And not have to be reminded. After seeing the video on my phone, after being released from Custody 😂 ... or, getting my friends out 😏 MEMORIES 🥰
Tiempos...aquellos como habria sido la juventud era mas retraída.. con semejante banda y en vivo...........se imaginan en primera fila solo atinando a mover los pies con brazos cruzados cabeza y aplaudir con la boca abierta y gritar un tanto........ hoy en día la expresión de identidad.....mucho mas abierta
Saw these guys Columbus Ohio same tour one of the hottest nights it was in the 100s and this venue had no a/c . But the show was amazing considering how hot it was another band that should be in the r/r hall of Fame.
No wonder CF Turner had to cut his hair to keep from overheating! Back in 73-74, THEY WERE the leading band in America of what I call American (who cares if they're from Canada!) "power rock" with their first three albums. I listened to them as much as I could along with Aerosmith's Get Your Wings at that time. I'd say the next hottest things to come along were Rush and Boston, and deservedly so....Oh, and, Brother, I hope you realize WE NEED to establish a parallel 'R & R HOF' voted on exclusively by the former-Working- & former-Middle-class Boomers and the later gens. who CAN appreciate this music to stop the injustice.
quando escutei essa guitarra do alto dos meus 8 anos , minha vida mudou !! hoje tenho 56 anos ,When I heard this guitar when I was 8 years old, my life changed!! today i am 56 years old
My older cousins taught me how to play smoke on the water but I never kept up learnning guitar. My dad played guitar but he never taught us...he would just pull his guitar out and play every once in awhile.
lol they rehearsed that toss the drumstick back to the drummer thing 1,000 times he was not going to miss that one you catch that you got a crowd in front of tonight boy
![The Who - Baba O'Reily -- In [High Definition] HD! -1979 - The Kids Are Alright](/img/1.gif)
No silly costumes, no silly makeup. Just pure, driven rock and roll.
Genuine.
Kiss from 73 to 77 would blow these fatsos off the stage..look at the crowd Dumbo! They are asleep
BTO excelente banda totalmente original, sem copiar ninguém, estilo proprio, simples e gostoso.
Don't forget Fred turner best vocals by far
Wearing costumes and make up has nothing to do with being a good rock roll musican, don´t judge
Yea.. they did wear them though at some concerts … it was just how they all did.. till Neil young and finally ended when nirvana hit the stage… you rarely seen the silly clown outfits anymore
Ever seen a man play guitar with a drumstick? '70's rock rules!
That unmistakable "growl" of CF Turner! EPIC!!!

Still took balls.
Yea but BTO look like a rough bunch themselves.. though they probably aren’t …

No.
It would take Guts to do it in the US, EH 😂 🖖
Good Old Randy Bachman whaling on his Guitar gotta love this great Canadian rock back BTO
In your face, hard driving rock by one of the best bands in rock history
The top was down, the breeze felt amazing, BTO playing LOUD on the 8-Track. It was 1976 and life couldn't get much better!
Yes Sir. BTO, Head East, ARS, Rory Gallagher, Neil Young, UFO, Bad Co., Beatles and so much more. Incredible summer it was. Started working at the Company I'm still at today.
We couldn't get much better,and we took this time for granted,and thought it would last forever
@@carlweaver3243 You are so right. We lived in one of the greatest musical generations of all time. It feels like we all blinked and it was gone.
@@johngoguen361 Oh to go back to those days and relive what we had. I wouldn't change anything about what I have today - kids, grandkids, an amazing wife. But to capture those days and the simple feelings we had back then.
Yes! I had a '67 VW convertible in 1977! What a great age to grow up in!
C.F. Turner..... what a rock n roll voice! Great band!!
RIP Robbie . . Rock Out Heaven Brother . . . Thanks for the music..
And Timmy too
What the hell Randy playing the guitar with a drum stick , talent my friends 🎸🎸
They knew how make music not fancy props & fireworks they were the fireworks
Right on, brother. “You ain't seen nothin’ yet” had just hit the airwaves as I was preparing to leave my native New York City (at 17) for Bayou country (Louisiana ) and Southern Rock ( ZZ Top, CCR, Ram Jam, and Lynyrd Skynyrd to name a few). 😎🎸

This is my fave BTO song of all time. They didn't wreck it for me by playing it continually on radio. It's still fresh.

I so wished I could've seen them in concert..
I did in Mpls MN front row, it was actually too loud, & it can't be too loud for me but the house sound was shitty, still was awesome.
I think it was the Not Fragile tour.

Great reminiscences! Great legendary rock band! Iconic band!
This was my first real rock band. When I graduated from am radio to fm and real hard rock. And these boys killed it!
I can appreciate and enjoy many different musical genres. If you want to give someone an example of a bonafide ROCK & ROLL song you can't do much better than "Four-wheel Drive" by Bachman-Turner Overdrive! Love it!

Talk about kicking ass!

Seen these guys so many times. Just freakin awesome. My favourite: The show in Point Roberts around 93?.
quando escutei essa guitarra do alto dos meus 8 anos , minha vida mudou !! hoje tenho 56 anos ,When I heard this guitar when I was 8 years old, my life changed!! today i am 56 years old
We always joked as teenagers that CF must have eaten gravel to get that voice!
Incredible !!
How 🆒- After 🎸work. Throws 🥁 Stick to DRUMMER! 70's Rock & Roll...😎..great📎..👌..
Great band " all the time"
Yes, kids, things were a lot different back then , Lord, we had fun 😅
Muy lindo recuerdo dé todos los tiempos
Wow... eran unos capos..!!!
Hmm.. wonder if EVH ever took note of Randy’s guitar techniques.. sounds familiar 🇨🇦
Nope not really. He loved Holdsworth and Blackmore , also some shenker. Early Clapton
Randy and B.T.O. opened for V.H. during the '5150' tour in '86. I'm sure Eddie was a fan.
Eddie van Halen “ ain’t seen nothin yet “!!!! Ha ha
We are never gonna see this again
Dusty Hill didn't have nuthin' on ol' Bigfoot!
Рок 🎸 навсегда сильнейшие рокеры
Carajooo lo maximooo , te eleva a la estratosfera mental......
Wonderful!!
Nobody could grow like fred
Who said EVH was the first to do finger tapping ?? 😮😮
Fue un grupaso mis respetos para el requintista parecía que estaba viendo a Jimy xendrix Atte. sr. Garcia
Rob wearing Contacts?
I like this!
My older cousins taught me how to play smoke on the water but I never kept up learnning guitar. My dad played guitar but he never taught us...he would just pull his guitar out and play every once in awhile.
Hebbard’s theme song!!! Yeah mate!!!!!!!!
EXCELLENT!
Awesome!
Dow dow - Bach and thurner
"Bow down (to) Bachman & Turner." (Is that what you meant, Brother?)
I think the beginning sounds like "Slow Down Boogie" from the live Japan album. Am I right? What a guitar player . . .!
It's the same opening, the Japan version goes into Don't Get Yourself In Trouble
So talented
4:02 Great tone on Blair's guitar. Glad they didn't speed up the tempo playing it live.
Can someone out there on the Back Forty help ol' Bigfoot find his Rickenbacker?
I heard a little bit of Eruption at the beginning
Mind blowing.
This is back in the years when Randy was a shredder!😀
Rock sólido!!!
Loved him in the guess who, but not fragile, just gave us neck pain.
lol they rehearsed that toss the drumstick back to the drummer thing 1,000 times he was not going to miss that one you catch that you got a crowd in front of tonight boy
In a good way!
Hammer
awesome..
