Randy Bachman writes the liner notes and, in a nice touch, dedicates the album to The Guess Who alum. Bachman's liner notes explain how the “original” four got back together in January of 1983 for the first time since the split in 1970. The rehearsals began in May 1983, and the band performed a month of dates. This album was recorded during the Toronto concert. So what is it like having Bachman performing on Rain Dance, Hand Me Down World, Clap For The Wolfman, Glamour Boy, and other songs from the post-Bachman version of the band? Not bad -- in fact, it's very good. In addition, there are five newly-recorded studio songs that are made to sound “live” by overdubbing audience sounds, sort of making it The Guess Who reunion album that really wasn’t. Still, the original sound is still there, making this an interesting — if oddball — collection from one of Canada’s all-time premiere bands. Personnel: Burton Cummings (piano, lead vocals); Jim Kale (bass, backing vocals); Garry Peterson (drums, percussion, backing vocals); Randy Bachman (guitar, backing vocals).

If you buy more than one item from me, the shipping cost will be the highest original shipping fee plus $1 per additional item. Payments managed by eBay. This is not a cut-out or a record-club pressing. It is the original issue. Note: I haven't cleaned these 38-year-old records because everybody seems to prefer their own methods. I'll leave the cleaning up to the buyer. Also, I'm not a professional vinyl seller or buyer. This comes from my own collection. Bought at The Record Exchange, downtown Blacksburg VA. Enjoy the auction — and good luck!
