BTO!

Post by Jerry2013 »

Friggin dig Bachmann Turner Overdrive. Not Fragile was straight ahead Classic No Frills Rock. Who can fault that?

I mean, if you dig techincal rock like Yes and ELP , and I do, you still have to love the direct approach to Blues Rock of BTO. The Garnet Amps Randy bachmann used sounded great. Been wanting to get me a Garnet, but they are hard to find.

Someone should buy that name and reissue those old Amps!

Oh Yeah.."Let it Ride".. lovin' it!

I still need to get around to building a Herzog. The tone on American Woman just kills.

BTO was my first favorite band and the first rock concert I ever attended back in 1976.

I knew a lady who used to babysit Randy Bachman's kids when she was younger. She said he was a super nice guy. That's my brush with fame.
Don't you boys know any NICE songs?

"Blue Collar" has some tasty, jazzy chops. Four Wheel Drive was one of the first albums I bought with my own money.
