Bachman Turner Overdrive Voice Your Choice Treasure Island Oldies

Bachman Turner Overdrive, or BTO as they quickly became known, formed in Vancouver, British Columbia but were from Winnipeg, Manitoba. Randy Bachman had been a founding member of The Guess Who with Chad Allan. Between the time Randy quit The Guess Who and formed BTO, he had another group called Brave Belt with Chad Allen once again on lead vocals.

When Randy Bachman and his brother Robbie Bachman teamed up with Fred Turner and Blair Thornton, a new page in Randy's illustrious history was about to begin. These hard rockers went on to chart 12 times between 1973 and 1979, including a Number One Gold Record.

Next week on Treasure Island Oldies, Voice Your Choice presents the jazzier side of Bachman Turner Overdrive. Cast your vote at the Voice Your Choice page for either Looking Out For #1 or Blue Collar. I'll play the winner on next week's show.
