The remnants of the Guess Who moved on to form the next Canuck powerhouse, BTO. And much like the previous group, they had a real penchant for being able to do either soft-rock ballads or hard driving in-your-face Rock-N-Roll. Bachman's vocals don't quite match up to Burton Cumming, but I think he makes up for it with a harder, grittier sound that makes the rockers even more appealing. Once again I cannot compliment 20th Century Masters on their marvelous work bringing these recording up to snuff for a digital 21st Century World. Deserves a place in any serious 70's Rock collection.

This is a great record for those of us who want a little Bachman-Turner Overdrive, but have no interest in getting deep into their catalog. BTO may have been one of the hardest rocking rockers in the early-to-mid 1970s, but they also were a singles band that put out some great radio-friendly rock and roll. I like having tangible copies of my music, so buying a collection at a fair price was preferable to downloading a few mp3 files of songs such as "Let It Ride," "You Ain't Seen Nothing Yet," "Hey You," and, yes, "Looking Out for Number One." (For some reason, I have never liked the overplayed "Taking Care of Business.") This CD sounds great and is perfect for having a hard copy of my favorite BTO 45's.
