    Randy Bachman is still a class act. On Mothers Day, he offered this Twitter message: "Happy Mother's Day today to all of you who care for others. There are all sorts of ways to mother that are not related to biology or bloodlines. So for all of you who help and nurture, be good to yourself and know that you matter and your influence makes a difference. My own mother paved the way for my success in so many ways."

I know the Lord Jesus Christ has forgiving the whole worlds sins past present and future. Because he died on the cross for all of mankind. But only if you put ALL YOUR TRUST IN HIM AND IN HIM ALONEI have so much peace knowing I'm going to be in Heaven with him and so can you don't have to go to Hell for ever. we all deserve Hell. But he nailed all our sins to the cross If you put all your trust in him and in him ALONE. This is the best news you will ever hear.

    BTO are Canadian icons. I didn't catch the name of the first song you reacted to but they got a good catalogue for you to dig into. Randy Bachman on guitars his brother Robbie on drums Fred Turner on bass and the other guitar player is Blair Thornton. Randy learn some guitar from Lenny breau and went on to form the Guess Who with Burton Cummings.. another band you should definitely check out if you haven't already.👍 . From BTO, Taking Care of Business. Four-wheel Drive and for some of Randy's Jazz influences from Lenny, checkout Blue Collar. As for the Guess Who, These Eyes, and No Sugar are two that come to mind. As always, keep up the good work.🍻🇨🇦

    BTO is often ranked in the top five of Canada's greatest music groups, becoming one of my home country's first genuine rock bands. Often collaborating with The Guess Who, they are immortal souls in the Great White North. You'd be hard-pressed to listen to a Canadian rock station without hearing these guys. Y'all need to hear "Taking Care of Business" and "Let It Ride". BTO is one rare band where pretty much the entire band has stayed together, with no messy break-ups or grandiose disputes. BTO was all about rocking, and this song shows it. You guys keep on rocking, Rob Squad!

Later that day we got a guitar lesson from the amazing Jennifer Batten on 'tapping techniques' at the Music West Conference. What a great day!... Still lot's of untapped tunes from these guys. 'Let it Ride' might be my favorite of them you can check out but they had a lot of hit songs. Randy Bachman came from one of Canada's Top Bands called 'The Guess Who' and after they split he formed a short lived band called 'Ironhorse', check out 'Ironhorse - Symphony' or 'Ironhorse - What's Your Hurry Darling'. Both great tunes. Cheers.
