Bachman–Turner Overdrive discography

After leaving the Guess Who in 1970, Randy Bachman decided to start a new band with the Guess Who's original singer, Chad Allen. To play bass he hired his old friend C.F. Turner and for drums, his brother Robin who was still in high school. The four eventually became known as Brave Belt and released two albums, Brave Belt and Brave Belt II (also released later as Bachman-Turner-Bachman: As Brave Belt). It was far away rock from what they were known as B.T.O., more a country rock.

After mild sucess the band wanted a heavier sound, so they they asked Chad Allen to leave and replaced him with the middle Bachman brother, Tim. All but one aspect of the band had the sound they wanted, the name. Brave Belt just didn't sound like the name of a hard rocking band, but that soon changed. In 1971 the band had stopped at a truck stop in Windsor, Ontario, where they happened to notice an issue of the trucking magazine "Overdrive". It was then that C.F. Turner wrote down "Bachman-Turner Overdrive" and the initials B.T.O. on a napkin.

In May 1973 Mercury Records released the debut self titled album. The album featured some great songs such as "Gimme Your Money Please", "Hold Back The Water" and "Thank You For The Feelin'" which all made it to the anthology, but the big hit was "Blue Collar". With a successful debut all there was to do for B.T.O. was release an even more successful follow up which they did in 1973. "Bachman-Turner Overdrive II" was a hit featuring two song which are still incredibly famous, "Let It Ride" and "Takin' Care Of Business". B.T.O. was now on the charts but before they could release a third album they lost a member, Tim. Tim Bachman had started a career selling real estate in Vancouver which he is still doing today. Despite losing Tim the band moved on, recruiting a Blair Thornton as their new rhythm guitarist and having Randy doing lead vocals as well as C.F. Turner.

In 1974 B.T.O. released their masterpiece, "Not Fragile" was 1 in America and 2 in the U.K. "Not Fragile" feature the songs "Rock Is My Life And This Is My Song", "Free Wheelin'", "Blue Moanin'" and the 1 "You Ain't Seen Nothin' Yet". After this sucess Mercury pushed them for a follow up which they released in 1975 using mostly song that they rejected for "Not Fragile". The only hit on their new album "Four Wheel Drive" was "Hey You" nevertheless Mercury still wanted more.

1975 saw the release of the over worked album "Head On" which featured the songs "It's Over" and "Take It Like A Man" neither of which were sucessful, all that came from the album was "Lookin' Out For 1".

In 1977 "Freeways" was released. Nothing on the album was sucessful and B.T.O. was on the verge of death when their Singer/Songwriter/Guitarist, Randy lost interest in the group.

Even without Randy the band went on putting C.F. Turner on guitar and recruiting former April Wine Bassist, Jim Clench. They released two commercially unsucessful albums, "Street Action" in 1978 and "Rock n' Roll Nights" in 1979. B.T.O. was put on hiatus.

in 1978 Randy Bachman put together along with Tom Sparks (vocals, guitars), Chris Leighton (drums) and Ron Foos (bass) a rock band called Ironhorse. Ironhorse released two albums on the Scotti Brothers label: 1979's Ironhorse and 1980's Everything is Grey. They had a minor U.S. hit single in April 1979 with "Sweet Lui-Louise", which peaked at 36 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart. In Canada, the song peaked slightly higher at 26.

In 1984 Randy rejoined the band to release another album simply called "B.T.O.". It wasn't sucessful and was the last studio album they ever made.
