B.T.O. / Best of B.T.O. – CD (Used)

Description

Author: Bachman-Turner Overdrive

Details: Amazon.caThe career of outsized rockers Bachman-Turner Overdrive slims down nicely onto this 12-track catch-all compilation. Except for three extra tunes tacked on the end, the track listing is virtually the same as on B.T.O.’s definitive 1976 best-of set. The remastering job gives the material crisp definition without sacrificing the essential grit of the recordings. But the real trick is just how well a lot of this stuff holds up. Oft-played hits « You Ain’t Seen Nothing Yet » and « Takin’ Care of Business » may crystallize B.T.O. in all their simple, foot-stomping, fist-pumping glory, but the roaring « Roll On Down the Highway » and the Stonesy, twin-guitar stun of « Gimme Your Money Please » deserve a place right alongside their more famous counterparts. There’s also enough room for Randy Bachman to play lounge singer on « Lookin’ Out for No. 1 » and « Blue Collar. » Non-collectors and casual fans need look no further than this CD.–Kieran Grant
