Bachman-Turner Overdrive - Roll On Down The Highway (Live in Winnipeg, Manitoba 1984) FM Broadcast

Bachman-Turner Overdrive – formed in Winnipeg, Manitoba in 1973 by Randy Bachman after leaving The Guess Who – became Canada’s biggest hard-rock export of the 70s. With Fred Turner’s gravel-road growl, Randy’s razor-sharp guitar riffs, and a rhythm section built like a Peterbilt, BTO delivered no-nonsense, working-man rock: big hooks, bigger guitars, and songs about trucks, highways, and takin’ care of business. Between 1974 and 1976 they scored five straight platinum albums, seven Top-40 hits (including the global #1 “You Ain’t Seen Nothing Yet”), and sold out arenas coast-to-coast on raw power and zero pretension.
After the original breakup in 1979, the classic lineup reunited briefly in 1984 for one last roar, then again in 1988-1991 and sporadically after 2009. Randy, Fred, Blair Thornton, and the Bachman brothers always brought the same gear-grinding energy that made “Roll On Down The Highway,” “Let It Ride,” and “Takin’ Care of Business” eternal road-trip anthems. Straight-up, blue-collar Canadian thunder – no filler, all killer.
