This dude is one of the musical architects of the 70's Sick Respect to this legend...
I had the honor of meeting Randy, and he is one of the nicest, down to earth people I've ever met. Incredible musician as well, and living Canadian legend
Congrats Greg
That song reminds me of 7th grade, Levi's big bell pants, earth shoes and a BTO t-shirt. That was the uniform of, (what we thought) were the cool kids. Good song!!
This song and “Taking care of Business” we’re both featured in our yearbook my senior year in high school. The year was 1975. BTO forever!!!!
Silver Fox damn your getting old! 😂
BTO works as backdrop to any setting... casual, formal, ..other ! been to all here with BTO...
Here's to seniors of "75"!
Just saw Randy Bachman in concert on August 6, 2023. He's 79 years old and he spent close to two hours on stage telling stories and playing many BTO hits, Guess Who hits, and a bunch of other songs that he just "had fun playing". Randy Bachman has still got it.
His son Tal was in his band as well. That was a pretty cool 90s flashback... and, yes, they also played "She's So High" lol
Randy Bachman's music has been with me my whole life, and it was an absolute pleasure and a privilege to see him perform live in 2023
Legend
I saw his show in Calgary the following October. I came away with the same awesome feeling.
RB is a grateful and humble man.
He's from Winnipeg... we're all like that.
He is indeed
I'll never forget when I first heard this song, I was just entering my junior year in high school. People should understand how unique this song was at the time, a groundbreaking sound to say the least, and the stuttering was the bomb. I was a Guess Who fan before but when BTO started pumping out the tunes I became a life-long Randy Bachman fan.
@@jessewoo3838 I thought Roll On Down the Highway was a better song and a better follow up to TCoB and Let It Ride. To me, even though it's a catchy tune, it was more of a novelty song. But even then I still think that BTO was their best album.
This is the song that hooked me on BTO and rock in the late fall of 1974. I was 12 years old.
I was 14 ..
You're the same age as me,took me another year!
Boy when I hear this song it takes me right back to high school. I can even feel the cold weather and football practice.
Hey Al Bundy!.
@@ericortega1745 - I know right? I forgot about this post.🤔
I vaguely knew this story about the stuttering thing, but hearing it told by Bachman is priceless. Amazing that the head of the label rallied for this song because it was so 'different'. That certainly has not happened in the last 20+ years, and hence the mind-numbing, chronically imitative product that we have now.
Randy is so gentle and informative he is also wanting to let people know how to do it right
"You Ain't Seen Nothing Yet" is one of my faves by BTO. Thanks Boom for another Behind the Vinyl episode with Randy Bachman.
For me, the best song of BTO!
What a humble guy
This man and the rest of B.T.O should be in the ROCK and ROLL HALL of FAME!!!
Yeah, what a joke that has become.
I have listened to this song way over a thousand times, such a part of my life❤🇨🇦
As a kid, I remember our neighbor working in his garage with the radio on and shouting " buh buh buh baby buh buh buh baby..."
Randy's Vynil Tap podcasts are simply the best historical reviews of rock music filled with countless precious anecdotes.
It says something about the character of this man, his stream of consciousness, that when he's not even trying, as he said just sketching it in, and it becomes an inspiration and favorite of millions of people the world over.
I was eight years old when this was in the charts and I loved it so much. Used to sing it at the top of my lungs to the annoyance of family members.
TO ALL OF THE PEOPLE WHO GAVE A THUMBS DOWN,😖 YOU GOTTA GO TO SCHOOL!!!!!YOU AIN'T SEEN NOTHING YET!!!!!!!🎸🎤🎶💞😊
Proud to say I'm from the same city as Randy. I was born just after their peak as a band, but still love the music. He seems so humble!
BTO was implanted in the background of my life! Such a great tune, a hook of all hooks in this song!
This is the beauty of You-Tube era video/audio to all. An important musical artist unafraid to share insider information and insights on the songs that shaped or at least influenced some of our earlier lives back when. For we guitar junkies, this stuff/content is nirvana. Not the band from Seattle BTW.....just a superlative to express our jubilation for the willingness of nice people like Mr. Bachman to share his intellectual property (how to correctly play his songs) at this stage of his life and to let us all in on the historical, behind-the-scenes perspective of the recording process. Magical stuff. Love to hear his reflections on Running Back to Saskatoon…..great piece of live rock and roll music.
Randy, brother I grew up with you and your brother on my turntable. I'm a disabled musician, where is because of men like you pedal to the metal inspired me to play guitar for myself and become a good one too. I know it's a musician team musician that it's the love of the music and then get the shirt with the world. I used to think about Fame, but I have small taste play in the clubs in southern Indiana. Some nights we made good money other nights we play for free. Sometimes we would just have parties to have a reason to play. I think back when I was in 10th grade at Woodward high School in Cincinnati Ohio we had a music class that specialized in and playing instruments. Everybody wants to play guitar in the 1970s, I didn't get my chance until I was 16. I was told by the music teacher that I could sit in the corner and play with the nylon string guitar, then he took the rest of the class change the other part of the room gave the students individual instruction. He didn't think I could, but to this day I know better. Also had a little led Zeppelin to sweet in the pot. Take care of Buddy.
I was a huge fan of BTO. Their songs are like great memories to me.
I sold so many of this song and albums when I managed a record store, back in the 70's so proud to have.... my favorites......
An enormously underrated guitar genius.
Listening to BTOs Greatest Hits now Sunday 2nd July 2023. Magic!!
He is one of the best story tellers around ! thanks!
A living legend Long may you run RB Thanks for this
Thanks Randy for the story and the song.
In 1975 for my second grade show and tell, I brought my BTO album and played this song for the class! True story lol :) and I still listen to BTO at age 51.
It is a crying shame that BTO is still not, in the Rock ‘n’ roll Hall of Fame
That's because they're not "American".We, as Canadians, have contributed so much to the music industry,but get less respect,in most parts,than we deserve.
The Hall of Shame it should be called, so biased.
Randy made the statement at one of his concerts about a year ago, that he feels there is someone on the board at the RRHOF that has some personal grievance against him. That is why he feels neither the guess who, BTO, or Randy as a solo artist, has ever been selected. He's probably correct. I, myself have often questioned why so MANY great artists that have certainly influenced rock and roll, have not been selected. Or have taken a very, very long time to be recognized. Yet there have been other acts, in my humble opinion, that I have to wonder not only how they were selected before truly great artist? But in some cases, why are some of them even in there at all?
Plus.....the artist have to "pay to play" to get in. It's a Big Political BS Money Grab for the HOF & l think RS Magazine....
It's nothing more than a marketing sham anyway. People who have nothing to do with Rock and Roll are in it, and many of the greats, like The Guess Who, Grand Funk, Doobie Brothers, Bad Company, Three Dog Night, Jethro Tull, etc, are not.
I'll never forget when I first heard this song, I was just entering my junior year in high school. People should understand how unique this song was at the time, a groundbreaking sound to say the least, and the stuttering was the bomb. I was a Guess Who fan before but when BTO started pumping out the tunes I became a life-long Randy Bachman fan.
You Ain't Seen Nothing Yet was my favorite song from the 70s!!
The Guess Who, Brave Belt and BTO. A perfect trilogy of Classic Canadian Rock.
BTO the soundtrack to every highschool gear head in the 70s. Sigh.. I miss good music .
I can listen to Randy Bachman tell rock stories forever. He's truly a rock icon and wonderful man. Thanks for sharing the story of "You Ain't Seen Noting Yet", Randy
Great song, great radio hit, great single.
This is definitely my favorite BTO song. Knowing it was just a scratch track made as a joke/jab at his brother makes it so much more incredible
I absolutely love this man. Talent and guitar abilities beyond belief. Eloquent speaker. Gentle, self depreciating heart and soul. A memory like am elephant. I'd listen to him talk all day and night if i could.
The plethora of musical gifts Mr, Bachman has given the world we can never say enough thanks for. I'm proud to be from the same country and the fact he continues to call Canada home is special to me.
Mr. Bachman's Guitar Chops put him up there in the Top 10 with Beck, Page, Gilmour, Buckingham, Townshend and Clapton. Not only that , but his songs are anthems! And, if that isn't enough, there is his Producing Work with other bands. The Man has an ear for melody. And he's Canadian! G-D Bless!
I love Randy but to put him in the top ten of all time is just ludicrous dude. Come on.
David Rollo ....no
David Rollo aahhhhhh no. Respect his songwriting and guitar playing but to put him up in the Top 10? No. You have your own opinion which is cool but he's not in the same company with those you've written
Some of your Top 10 aren’t in the Top 10....lol
It's cool that you put Buckingham in the Top 10. He's actually my favorite guitarist, but in RS's Top 100 guitarists of all time, he placed exactly at number 100! Just made it. As for Randy, his adaptation of the Tom Johnston shuffle style (or the "chunka chunka" rhythm guitar sound) Tom invented and was first heard on "Listen to the Music" has taken it to new levels of audio beauty, ringing out first on "Let It Ride" and really shimmering all over this song. Further heard in magnificence on "Hey You". So as great as Randy's leads are, it's his rhythm guitar that's been a highlight of my life's musical soundtrack.
LOVE! More Randy Bachman!
I can't believe I didn't know he wrote American Woman!
The story I heard was they were jamming waiting for Burton to get on stage. Randy came up with the riff and Burton spontaneously came up with the first bit of lyrics. They spotted a kid with a cassette recorder taping the thing. They managed to get a copy from him since it wasn't written and the rest is history, or that's the story I read.
@@brentscott5359 there's another story by Randy from this same show,watched it last night
@@timhoovermusicman Just watched it. Never heard him tell the story before so I'll have to go with him being the source. Sometimes the best things happen purely by accident. Serendipity if you will. Thanks for helping set the olde guy straight. Cheers.
@@brentscott5359 reading the comments on the video their are a couple that refer to a third story similar to the one you mentioned also,I guess we may never know for sure😎
The song gives my mind memories of days gone by,such fun,such happiness,and with that BTO made it all the more better.
Being a kid in the 70's, I was blown away by BTO, and will always have memories of places and people
I remember Saturday Morning public skating at Harmon Park Arena with this tune and TCOB by BTO blaring through the speakers and flying around the rink without a care in the whole world......Ahhh the 70s were wonderful carefree times !!
I used to wear this record out in the 70s when I was a kid.
What good memories this song brings.
Great band, former Guess Who member .. Another awesome Canadian group.
One of my favorite BTO songs! 👍🏻👍🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
So Cool.
Another fascinating story, keep em coming Boom 97.3.
Mistakes are what make hits !😎👍🏻👍🏻
What a great story... Thx Randy ✌
Agree
My Dad sang this to me once. I will never forget that memory!
I am astounded that Randy thought nothing of this song. My Brother had this album on cassette tape in 74. I used to steal it from him and listen to it all the time. I was just a kid. The very first time I heard You ain't seen nothing yet I LOVED IT. I played it all the time. It is such a classic satisfying riff. You can feel the hair on your neck go up when it starts. And the lead solos are so big and classic.
1:01 Randy confirms he’s not American. 15 years old when this album released...can still remember the first time I heard Ain’t Seen Nothing Yet. Completely blown away by the guitars.
The song also goosed my efforts to travel and have experiences. Can’t believe it was almost lost to history.
My first concert EVER was BTO at the Pacific Coliseum in Vancouver 1975! Triple bill. They headlined with Trooper and a local one hit wonder called CB Victoria who had a song "Come And See My Man" Still have the pics from my Kodak Instamatic Flip Flash camera. Like yesterday.
I was lucky enough to meet Randy and introduce them on stage at the Ranch Bowl on the bowling alley!. Randy told me do not say Bachman Turner Overdrive. Say BTO....the only band not to have alcohol in their dressing room. 1980s
Fantastic interview!
BTO saved the Days!
I bought the Not Fragile album. I was 13 and used my paper route money, lol, I wore it out. \m/ Yeah!
The song is way out I've given my granddaughter to make a dance routine for your great song thank you for it
I remember listening to an interview Randy did on the 'Wayne Dionne Show' way back in 1974. He said that someday he'd like to be known as the grandfather of Canadian Rock & Roll. Mission Accomplished 👍👍
Randy talking about his mistakes is priceless!
Randy, got that album (and a few more!) You're a rock hero, dude! Love your stuff!
This is great!
So cool to hear how amazed he is that this song happened, and how grateful he is - even 45 years later. Randy's not jaded, but a class act.
I like these videos. These Canadian men all seem so honest when talking about their music. So many great songs from very few bands. Canada had some talented musicians.
No rock like Northern Rock! 🇨🇦 The list would fill this page... 🍁
Great band. God I loved growing up in the 70's.
Haha. My father always hated this song because he was a stutterer...he thought it was making fun of people who stuttered. Great story and amazing how a throw-away song could become a game changing hit. Just shows to go you.
My older brother had this 8 track tape when it first came out. I played it so much and when the son Sha Nah Nah Nah! Came around on the tracks, the generation on the tape was so cloudy that my brother got pissed off. I said well stop leaving your porno and 8 tracks around for your younger brother to find! He said you say that again I’ll be takin care o business on your head! True story. BTO 8 Track kid
This is my favorite BTO song. I love it. In addition, the guitars are absolutely IN tune & they sound great. The vocal is unique & the beat sounds like a locomotive train going down the track. The record executive was 100% spot on. lol
this is a great illustration of how the imperfections make a song come alive......if you have perfect technique you sound like everyone else with perfect technique...its the little mistakes that individualize the style and the feel of the songs...
Thank you for posting this. BTO was part of my 8th and 9th grade years. When I hear theses songs I’m 14 all over again! My best friends and I are at school dances. Thank you Randy Bachman!
What a nice man. Grew up listening to BTO in the 70s and and 80s as a Canadian kid. Great story :)
Cool dude right there. Great story!
I remember this song playing on the radio all day for some reason on a road trip to Daytona Beach spring break in my buddies 74 Buick Apollo....best days of my life.
Wow!! That story is so cool!! Thanks for the story Randy!
A song that lasts is a song that never leaves you once youve heard it
Amazing story. It shows you can achieve anythjng even if your making mistakes! Many blessings to you all !
Awesome man and epic song and album, Not Fragile...one of a kind!
Great story Randy...love it!!! (-:
Randy's Vinyl Tap, on CBC Radio, is unmissable.
One of the most genuinely inspiring breakdowns of the story behind the vinyl. BTO is one of my top bands to listen to on long road trips. Amazing material. Try listening to underrated Wild Spirit at 100 or higher.
Great song! Great album!! 🎸 🎸🎸
Your the show Randy!! Good Stuff
This song and freeways are the best ever BTO songs, keep on trucking Randy
I heard there’s more to the story: he tried to go into the studio and re-record the song and he sounded much different…like Frank Sinatra, as he explained. It was the original, and only, version that we still hear to this day. Amazing.
Thank you Randy Bachman for your memorable music.
My pop introduced me to BTO, and I've introduced them to my kiddos. It's brilliant
There's a couple of songs from the Guess Who/BTO catalogue that have this story. American Woman is one, I think can remember likewise about, No Sugar Tonight, and there's probably more like it's a theme in their many tales of much, much, much deserved success. I want to say slash add: I was awake listening to the (FM) radio one night - 1969. It was a Sunday night Monday morning thing when the music just ends and suddenly your in the middle of some interview. That time slot is the throw away period where they fill with stuff to keep their license intact, e.g., PSA's, local politics involvement slash fundraising, that sort of stuff. That night the, on-delay interview was the DJ with this guy, Randy Bachman. What I heard in the next hour and a half gave me so many insights into playing the guitar, recording, music theory and song construction, plus personal responsibility like time management and getting along with others like bandmates, but more like maintaining self-respect and with him talking to the DJ like he was his best mate or brother. They took callers and I gotta tell you RB, he was so genuine and sincere, and thoughtful and considerate sounding like this super normal guy who liked to play music and be in a band or teaching a class at the community college. Randy Bachman is a true (rock) legend.
I was starting the 5th grade when this single hit the airwaves. My awesome Dad took me shopping for a stereo system shortly after and I came home with an entry-level Pioneer amp, Dual turntable, and some decent speakers. First 45 single I bought was... you guessed it. First albums I ever paid actual money for were BTO2 then Not Fragile.
Randy also wrote a favorite of mine with The Guess Who called 'Undun'. You can even hear a likeness in B.T.O.'s 'Looking Out For Number 1'. Two great tunes that got little radio play.
Let it Ride, Aint Seen Nothing, Blue Collar, 4 wheel drive...my fav BTO jams.
Hated when Guess Who broke up...soon got over it with such gold tunes.
Grew up on BTO. Randy is great guitar player and song writer.
Great tune.
Amazing man , amazing album and a stupendous song!!!!!
Put this man in the rock and roll hall of fame 🤘🤘🤘
What a great interview absolutely love this song! Thank you.
I remember first time I heard that track and it made me smirk the way some DLR era VH did
Love hearing the processes of how these are made. It IS a great song. We've certainly all stuttered, it kind of captures more than the artist originally intended, but came out good.
Thank you for being born Randy. Mucho, mucho respect brother.
Great interp Randy! We all stutter a little bit after hearing this song for the 1st time.....oh way back in 8th grade for me. A true rock classique! And you were right, we ain't seen nothing yet! Thanks!
