The Guess Who • Greatest Hits

 



 The Guess Who was the most successful Canadian rock group of the late 1960s and early 1970s, and Canada’s first rock superstars. The songwriting team of guitarist-singer Randy Bachman and lead singer-keyboardist Burton Cummings wrote such classic songs as “These Eyes,” “Laughing,” “No Time,” “No Sugar Tonight” and “American Woman” (the first song by a Canadian band to hit No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart) before Bachman’s departure in 1970. The string of hits continued with “Share The Land,” “Albert Flasher,” “Rain Dance” and “Clap for the Wolfman,” among others, until Cummings left to pursue a solo career in 1975. The Guess Who won two Juno Awards and a Governor General’s Performing Arts Award, and was inducted into the Canadian Music Hall of Fame, Canada’s Walk of Fame, the Canadian Songwriters Hall of Fame and the Canadian Music Industry Hall of Fame.

Early Years
The Guess Who emerged from a series of Winnipeg bands fronted by lead singer Chad Allan. In the late 1950s, Allan formed a band called The Silvertones with other Winnipeg teenagers, including bassist Jim Kale. Randy Bachman and drummer Garry Peterson joined in 1962, when the group’s name was changed to Chad Allan & The Reflections. Keyboardist Bob Ashley rounded out the five-man lineup, which changed its name to Chad Allan & the Expressions in 1965.

Heavily influenced by the “British Invasion,” the group issued a few singles and two albums. Although they developed a loyal following in Winnipeg, they received little radio support in the rest of the country, due in part to the refusal by most radio stations in Canada to play Canadian material.
Success as The Guess Who?

When the band recorded a cover of the influential British hit “Shakin’ All Over” in 1965, Quality Records producer George Struth released it to radio stations under the moniker "Guess Who?" in the hope that DJs would be more inclined to play a song by a mysterious new British band. Whether this marketing ploy had anything to do with the song’s success is debatable, but it reached No. 1 in Canada and No. 22 in the US.

The success of “Shakin’ All Over” led the band, now known as The Guess Who?, to tour with The Kingsmen, The Belmonts and The Turtles in the summer of 1965. Burton Cummings replaced Ashley on keyboards in early 1966 and Allan left a few months later, which made the 18-year-old Cummings the group’s new lead singer. The band released the LP It’s Time (1966) and went to the UK in 1967 in support of the single “His Girl.” However, the song had dropped off the charts by the time they got there and the tour was a failure. The band returned to Canada and served for two years as the house band on the CBC TV music/variety program Let’s Go, hosted by Chad Allan, to help pay off its debts from the ill-fated trip to Britain.

From 1966 to 1968, the band released a string of singles, primarily ballads, that reached the Top 40 in Canada — including “Hurting Each Other,” which was later a hit for The Carpenters — but its albums did not sell well. In 1968, they released A Wild Pair, a split album with The Staccatos (which soon became Five Man Electrical Band) that was part of a Coca-Cola promotion and brought the band more exposure in Canada. That year, the question mark was dropped and the group officially became The Guess Who.
International Success

With what’s generally considered the classic lineup of Bachman, Cummings, Kale and Peterson in place, The Guess Who began a productive relationship with a man who became another integral team member: A Wild Pair producer Jack Richardson. After acquiring the band’s contract from Quality Records for $1,000, Richardson placed a second mortgage on his house to pay for the album Wheatfield Soul (1969), which was recorded for his Nimbus 9 Productions and released by RCA Records. The investment paid off. In addition to yielding the million-selling “These Eyes,” which broke the Top 10 in both Canada and the US, the LP cemented a fruitful, long-term bond between band and producer.

The prairie theme continued with Canned Wheat (1969), which was quickly released by RCA to capitalize on the success of the double-sided single “Laughing” (a Canadian chart-topper that reached No. 10 in the US) and Bachman’s “Undun,” which hit No. 21 in Canada and No. 22 in the US.
American Woman (1970)

But it was the next album, American Woman (1970), which elevated The Guess Who to a higher level of stardom. The title track had its origins in a concert at a curling rink in Southern Ontario. Bachman improvised the riff while tuning his guitar after breaking a string. The rest of the band joined in and Cummings came up with the lyrics, “American woman stay away from me,” on the spot. An audience member was recording the show and the band got a copy of the cassette afterwards. Cummings added the rest of the lyrics (which include images of “war machines” and “ghetto scenes” evoked from touring in the US during the Vietnam War) before the band performed the song again the following night.

RCA fell in love with the track, as did the public. The song became the first by a Canadian rock group to hit No. 1 in the US on the Billboard Hot 100, where it remained for three weeks. (“American Woman” also became a hit for American artist Lenny Kravitz in 1999, earning him a 2000 Grammy Award for Best Male Rock Performance.)

“No Sugar Tonight,” the B-side for “American Woman,” also hit No. 1 in both Canada and the US. A longer version of the song, combined with “New Mother Nature,” appeared on the album. “No Time,” which was originally included on Canned Wheat, was re-recorded for American Woman and became its third hit single, peaking at No. 1 in Canada and No. 5 in the US. American Woman reached No. 9 on the Billboard Pop Albums chart, making it the only Guess Who album to reach the Top 10.
Post-Bachman Years

Bachman had converted to Mormonism when he married his first wife Lorayne Stevenson in 1966, and as the spoils of the rock ‘n’ roll lifestyle increased with The Guess Who’s higher profile, Bachman's beliefs and lifestyle clashed with those of his band mates. He was also suffering from serious gall bladder attacks and was replaced on tour by guitarist Bobby Sabellico while he returned to see his doctor in Winnipeg. After playing a final show at the Fillmore East in New York on 16 May 1970, Bachman left the group. He later re-teamed with Chad Allan to form Brave Belt, which evolved into Bachman-Turner Overdrive.

Bachman was replaced by two guitarists: Kurt Winter, from the Winnipeg band Brother, and Greg Leskiw. Winter became Cummings’s primary songwriting partner. The first album with this new lineup was Share The Land (1970). Winter’s “Hand Me Down World” and “Bus Rider,” and Cummings’ title track kept the string of hit singles coming, as did the Cummings/Winter-penned “Hang on to Your Life” and the non-album single “Albert Flasher.” Bachman’s departure didn’t seem to slow The Guess Who down.

So Long, Bannatyne (1971), named after a Winnipeg street, followed a year later and included the popular singles “Rain Dance” and “Sour Suite.” Leskiw left to pursue a solo career and was replaced by Donnie McDougall for the acclaimed live album Live at the Paramount (1972), which was recorded at the Paramount Theatre in Seattle, WA. The album yielded the Top 10 Canadian hit “Runnin’ Back to Saskatoon” and led legendary rock critic Lester Bangs to declare “The Guess Who is God.”

The studio album Rockin’ also came out in 1972 and was the last with Kale, who was replaced by bassist and former Brother member Bill Wallace. Artificial Paradise (1973), the first album with this lineup, featured the Top 20 Canadian hit “Follow Your Daughter Home,” but failed to match the success of its predecessors. The group’s 10th album with Cummings, appropriately titled #10, was also issued in 1973. Its only charting single was “Glamour Boy,” which hit No. 14 in Canada.

Road Food (1974) marked a commercial recovery for The Guess Who, as it spawned the Top 10 Canadian and US hit “Clap for the Wolfman” (an ode to American disc jockey Wolfman Jack, who also appears on the song) and “Star Baby,” which stayed on the Billboard Hot 100 for 19 weeks, the longest of any Guess Who single.

Guitarist Domenic Troiano, known for his work with Ronnie Hawkins and The James Gang, replaced Winter and McDougall, and became Cummings’ songwriting partner for Flavours (1975), which is best known for the song “Dancin’ Fool.” Power in the Music came out later that year and was Cummings’s last album; he left in the middle of a tour to pursue a successful solo career after becoming disenchanted with the more progressive rock direction he saw The Guess Who taking with Troiano.
Post-Cummings Years

Cummings’s departure seemed to mark the end of The Guess Who, but a contractual obligation with RCA brought about the release of The Way They Were (1976), a collection of previously unreleased tracks from the Bachman era. Kale, realizing that there was still an audience for the band’s music and that its name had never been registered, reformed The Guess Who with Peterson, Winter and McDougall, and acquired legal rights to the name.

Peterson left and was replaced shortly thereafter by Brother alumnus Vance Masters, while Ralph Watts joined on keyboards. This lineup released Guess Who’s Back (1978) and All This For A Song (1979), both of which had lacklustre sales. So did Now and Then (1981), which featured Kale, singer Brent DeJarlais, guitarist Mike McKenna, and drummers Sonnie Bernardi and Dan Russell.
1980s Reunions

Bachman and Cummings reunited with Kale and Peterson for a 1983 tour that resulted in the Together Again live album and concert video, as well as the Kale-written single “Let’s Watch The Sun Go Down.” The four men again went their own ways until 1987, when they gathered to be inducted into the Canadian Music Hall of Fame.
1990s to Present

Kale and Peterson reconvened The Guess Who to tour again in the early 1990s, this time with singer Terry Hatty, keyboardist Leonard Shaw and guitarist Dale Russell. Liberty (1995) was released by Aquarius Records, then re-released later that year as Lonely One by Intersound Records. Public interest was minimal. Kale put together other touring lineups in the 1990s and released the live albums The Spirit Lives On (1998) and Down The Road (1999), which were met with derision by fans. The only performances in the 1990s to feature Bachman and Cummings were a 1997 Red River Flood benefit concert and a four-song set at the 1999 Pan-Am Games in Winnipeg.

The two main men reunited and — with Peterson, McDougall and Wallace — set out on the Running Back Thru Canada Tour, one of the highest-grossing tours in Canadian music history. The resulting live double album, issued in 2000, was certified gold in Canada within a week of its release and eventually went double platinum. The reunited lineup also played the half-time show at the 2000 Grey Cup in Calgary and the Molson Canadian Rocks for Toronto “SARStock” benefit concert in July 2003. Kale’s version of the group continued to tour and issue largely ignored releases. Kale, Peterson, Shaw, lead singer/guitarist Derek Sharp and guitarist Laurie MacKenzie were still touring as The Guess Who as of 2013.
Legacy

While its record company tried to masquerade it as a British group, The Guess Who went on to forge an identity as a distinctly Canadian band, with a diverse sound that included different variations of rock, pop, psychedelia and even jazz, and lyrics that often contained explicit Canadian references. “Lightfoot” (a tribute to Gordon Lightfoot), “Maple Fudge,” “American Woman,” “So Long, Bannatyne,” “Guns, Guns, Guns,” “Glace Bay Blues,” “Runnin’ Back to Saskatoon” and “Lost and Found Town” are all examples.

As Canada’s Walk of Fame noted upon the band’s induction in 2001, The Guess Who “were the guys who made it okay to be Canadian, who proved that you didn’t have to leave our shores to score big. And they’ve influenced just about every Canadian performer who has followed since.”

Of the 14 Guess Who albums produced by Richardson during the 1960s and 1970s, 11 were certified gold (sales of 50,000) and five were certified platinum (sales of 100,000) in Canada, while five achieved gold (sales of 500,000) and three reached platinum (sales of one million) in the US.

In 2005, the CBC Radio program 50 Tracks: The Canadian Version respectively ranked “American Woman” and “These Eyes” the 5th and 23rd best Canadian songs of all time. “American Woman” and its B side “No Sugar Tonight” were ranked No. 1 in Bob Mersereau’s 2010 book, The Top 100 Canadian Singles, while “These Eyes,” “Shakin’ All Over” and “No Time” also made the list.

Bachman and Cummings were each inducted into the Canadian Songwriters Hall of Fame in 2005 along with their co-written songs “These Eyes,” “No Time” and “No Sugar Tonight / New Mother Nature,” and “American Woman,” on which all band members share credit. Kurt Winter’s “Hand Me Down World” was inducted in 2017. In July 2013, Canada Post issued a stamp in the band’s honour.

//////////

The Guess Who es una banda de rock canadiense, formada en Winnipeg, Manitoba, en 1965. Inicialmente reconocidos en Canadá, el grupo logró éxito internacional a finales de los 60’s y la mitad de los 70’s con varios temas, incluyendo "No Time", "American Woman", "Laughing", "These Eyes", "Undun" y "Share the Land". La banda ha continuado presentándose y grabando hasta los días actuales, y en varias oportunidades ha presentado músicos muy bien reconocidos, como Burton Cummings y Randy Bachman (de Bachman–Turner Overdrive). Formada como una banda de rock de garage su estilo musical comprende los géneros pop, rock y rock psicodélico.

Significado del nombre de The Guess Who
El nombre inicial de la banda era muy largo: Chad Allan & the Expressions y eran poco conocidos, en algunas disqueras pensaban que se trataba de un grupo de la llamada “Invasión británica” (The Beatles, Kinks, etc.). Cuando la banda grabó una versión del conocido tema éxito inglés “Shakin’ All Over” en 1965, el productor de Quality Records, George Struth, realizó un concurso en las estaciones de radio con el título de "Guess Who?" (adivina quién?), con la esperanza de que los discjockeys se inclinaran a colocar canciones de esa nueva y misteriosa “banda británica”. Como el éxito de la canción fue total, llegando al N° uno en Canadá y el 22 en Estados Unidos, la banda comenzó a salir de gira con otros grupos, pero ahora con el nombre de The Guess Who?.

Inicios de The Guess Who en la Música
En los días gloriosos del rock 'n' roll, cuando The Beatles encabezaban la “Invasión británica”, las radios de Canadá mostraban poco interés en promocionar el talento canadiense. Su filosofía era simple: la música americana era buena, pero la británica era mucho mejor. La historia de la banda comienza en 1962, cuando varios jóvenes oriundos de Winnipeg, Randy Bachman (guitarra líder), Bob Ashley (piano), Jim Kale (bajo), Garry Peterson (batería) y Allan Kowbell, conocido artísticamente como Chad Allan (guitarra rítmica y vocalista líder), unieron fuerzas para formar el grupo Chad Allan & The Expressions. Firmados por el sello Quality Records, cambiaron el nombre de la agrupación a The Reflections, pero tuvieron que dar marcha atrás cuando en Detroit estaba un grupo con nombre igual y que tenía una canción en la lista de los 10 mejores, "(Just Like) Romeo & Juliet". Por el sonido suave y el trabajo de guitarra de Bachman, la banda podría significar un gran suceso local pero tuvo que esperar tres años para anotarse una canción éxito. Un año más tarde la banda sufrió un cambio cuando Allan y Ashley salieron del grupo, en su lugar entró el vocalista y tecladista Burton Cummings. Después grabaron varios álbumes de poca venta, pero que ahora son valiosos artículos de coleccionista, y en 1968, Quality vendió el contrato de The Guess Who a un nuevo sello discográfico Nimbus 9 Records, con sede en Toronto, por solo $1.000.

Género musical de The Guess Who
Su estilo de música varía desde el pop, funky, rock y música folk. Entre los artistas que inspiraron a la banda en sus comienzos estaban los grupos que iniciaron la llamada invasión británica del rock and roll, como The Beatles y Los Shadows.

Trayectoria y Legado de The Guess Who
The Guess Who es considerada la más grande banda de rock de todos los tiempos en Canadá. De 1966 a 1968, la banda realizó una cadena de sencillos, principalmente baladas, que llegaron a la lista de las mejores 40 en Canadá - incluyendo “Hurting Each Other”, que más tarde fue grabada por el dúo Los Carpenters – pero sus discos no tuvieron buenas ventas. En 1968, editaron el disco “A Wild Pair”, producido por Jack Richardson, conjuntamente con otra banda, The Staccatos, como parte de una campaña publicitaria de la Coca-Cola presentada en una exposición en Canadá. Ese año el grupo fue oficialmente reconocido como The Guess Who.

Después de firmar un contrato con la disquera Quality Records por $1.000, Richardson produjo el álbum "Wheatfield Soul" (1969), que fue grabado por la compañía de su propiedad Nimbus 9 Productions y distribuido por RCA Records. De este disco la canción "These Eyes", logró vender más de un millón de copias que llegó a las mejores 10 en Canadá y Estados Unidos. El disco LP cimentó una fructífera relación entre la banda y su productor.

El siguiente disco, "Canned Wheat" (1969), fue rápidamente editado por RCA en un sencillo (45RPM) que contenía dos éxitos, "Laughing" (que llegó al tope del éxito en Canadá y entre las mejores 10 en USA) y una creación de Bachman, "Undun", que llegó al puesto 21 en Canadá y el 22 en Estados Unidos.

Pero fue el siguiente disco, "American Woman" (1970), el que elevó a The Guess Who al más alto puesto en el firmamento musical. RCA enamoró al público con esta canción, la cual llegó a ser el primer N° uno de una banda canadiense en Estados Unidos en la lista Billboard, donde se mantuvo por tres semanas, (“American Woman” también fue un éxito cuando la grabó el cantante americano Lenny Kravitz en 1999, dándole un premio Grammy en el año 2000 por Mejor Grabación de Voz Masculina).

"No Sugar Tonight", en el lado B del disco "American Woman", también fue un número uno en Canadá y Estados Unidos. Una larga versión de la canción, combinada con otro tema, "New Mother Nature", aparecía en el álbum. "No Time", que fue originalmente incluida en otro disco, "Canned Wheat", fue re-grabada para "American Woman" y llegó a ser su tercer éxito, subiendo al número uno en Canadá y número cinco en USA. "American Woman" alcanzó el número nueve en la lista Billboard de Álbums Pop, y fue el único disco de Guess Who que llegará al Tope de las 10.

Bachman comenzó a sufrir problemas de vesícula y fue reemplazado por el guitarrista Bobby Sabellico, mientras le hacían exámenes en Winnipeg. Después de un concierto en el Fillmore East de New York el 16 de mayo de 1970, Bachman abandona el grupo. Él vuelve a reunirse con Chad Allan para formar el grupo Brave Belt, que después de transformó en Bachman-Turner Overdrive.

Bachman después fue sustituido por dos guitarristas: Kurt Winter y Greg Leskiw. El primer disco con esta nueva agrupación fue "Share The Land" (1970). Entre Winter y Cummings escribieron temas para este disco que tuvieron muy buena acogida como "Bus Rider", "Hang on to Your Life" y "Albert Flasher". La salida de Bachman no tuvo mayor incidencia en The Guess Who.

"So Long, Bannatyne" (1971), fue el siguiente álbum e incluía canciones tan populares como "Rain Dance" y "Sour Suite", Leskiw se retiró de la banda para hacer carrera como solista y fue sustituido por Donnie McDougall para el disco "Live at the Paramount" (1972), que fue grabado en el Teatro Paramount en Seattle. El álbum colocó una canción entre las 10 mejores en Canadá, "Runnin’ Back to Saskatoon", que recibió elogios por otros músicos del rock.

El álbum de estudio "Rockin" vino en 1972, el último con Kale como bajista, que fue reemplazado por Bill Wallace. "Artificial Paradise" en 1973, fue el primer disco con esta alineación, presentó el éxito "Follow Your Daughter Home", que entró entre las 20 mejores en Canadá, pero no tuvo tanta repercusión como los trabajos anteriores. El décimo disco de The Guess Who con Cummings, casualmente titulado como "#10", fue también hecho en 1973. La canción "Glamour Boy", llegó al puesto 14 en Canadá.

"Road Food" en 1974, marcó una recuperación comercial para The Guess Who, y llegó a la lista de los 10 mejores en Canadá y Estados Unidos con el tema "Clap for the Wolfman" (un homenaje al pinchadiscos americano Wolfman Jack, su voz aparece en el tema mencionado) y "Star Baby", que estuvo 19 semanas entre las 100 más escuchadas en la lista de Billboard, la más duradera entre las canciones de The Guess Who.

El guitarrista Domenic Troiano, que trabajó con el grupo de Ronnie Hawkins y con James Gang, reemplazó a Winter, y McDougall se unió a Cummings en el disco "Flavours" (1975), que es mejor conocido por la canción "Dancin’ Fool", "Power in the Music" fue el último disco de The Guess Who con Cummings; quien tomó la carrera de solista. Con Troiano el grupo cambió su sonido a un rock progresivo y mucho más fuerte.

"The Way They Were" (1976), una colección de grabaciones inéditas de la época de Randy Bachman fue realizada por Kale, Peterson, Winter y McDougall, quienes aprovechando que el nombre de la banda nunca fue registrado adquirieron los derechos para utilizarlo y así el disco pudo salir con el nombre de The Guess Who.

Peterson fue reemplazado por Vance Masters, mientras Ralph Watts tomó los teclados. Esta nueva versión del grupo realizó los discos "Guess Who’s Back" (Adivina quién regresa) en 1978 y "All This For A Song" en 1979, ambos con pingües ventas. Luego hicieron "Now and Then" en 1981, que presentaba a Kale, al vocalista Brent DeJarlais, el guitarrista Mike McKenna, y los bateristas Sonnie Bernardi y Dan Russell.

Bachman y Cummings se unieron a Kale y Peterson para una gira en 1983 de la que editaron el disco "Together Again" que además traía un video del concierto. Los cuatro tomaron diferentes caminos hasta 1986, cuando fueron exaltados al Salón de la Fama de la Música en Canadá.

A comienzos de los 90's Kale y Peterson convocaron de nuevo a The Guess Who para una nueva gira, Terry Hatty, tecladista, Leonard Shaw y el guitarrista Dale Russell, grabaron el álbum "Liberty" en 1995 editado por Aquarius Records, reeditado ese mismo año con el nombre de "Lonely One" por el sello Intersound Records. "The Spirit Lives On" en 1998 y "Down The Road" en 1999, fueron dos discos en vivo recibidos con desgano por sus fanáticos. Las únicas presentaciones del dueto Bachman y Cummings fueron en 1997 en Red River Flood, un concierto benéfico, ante 40.000 personas; y un set de cuatro canciones para la ceremonia de clausura de los Juegos Panamericanos de Winnipeg en 1999.

Los dos músicos se reunieron en 2000 con Peterson, McDougall y Wallace para la gira "Running Back Thru Canada", una de las más espectaculares en la historia de la música en Canadá. El resultado se grabó en un álbum doble en vivo, que logró disco de Oro en Canadá y que luego fue reconocido con Disco de Platino. Después se presentaron en la Grey Cup 2000 en Calgary y tres años más tarde, en julio de 2003, en el Molson Canadian Rocks en un concierto de beneficencia.

Imposibilitados de usar el nombre de The Guess Who, la reunión se dispersó, Kale y Peterson (que sí podían usar el nombre de The Guess Who) tomaron el control de la banda y formaron una nueva agrupación junto a Derek John Sharp (vocalista guitarra), quien reemplazó a Carl Dixon, Will Evankovich (guitarra vocalista), que sustituyó a Laurie McKenzie, y la inclusión final de Leonard Shaw (teclados, saxo, flauta). Sólo para la web realizaron el disco, "In Concert" (2009) que ha sido su único trabajo en largo tiempo.

La audición, en 2016, del bajista Rudy Sarzo – (que venía de los grupos Quiet Riot y Ozzy Osbourne) revitalizó a The Guess Who que volvieron a su sonido clásico boogie y rockin’ and rollin’ otra vez para editar en septiembre de 2018 el disco "The Future is What It Used to Be", el cual presentaba a Garry Peterson (batería y coros), D# (líder vocalista, guitarra y piano), Will Evankovich (guitarra, arpa, coros), Leonard Shaw (teclados, flauta, saxo, coros) y Rudy Sarzo (bajo y coros). El álbum también presenta a varios invitados especiales, incluyendo a Tommy Shaw (Styx) en coros, Brent Fitz (Slach y Gene Simmons) en la percusión, Jim Kale (miembro fundador de The Guess Who) y Michael Devin (Whitesnake) en el bajo.

De los 14 discos de The Guess Who que produjo Richardson entre los 60’s y 70’s, 11 ganaron Disco de Oro y cinco ganaron Platino en Canadá, mientras 5 lograron ventas de más de 500.000 copias (Disco de Oro) y tres más de un millón de copias (Disco de Platino) en Estados Unidos.

Bachman y Cummings fueron exaltados al Salón de la Fama de los Compositores en Canadá en 2005 por la co-autoría de canciones como "These Eyes", "No Time", "No Sugar Tonight / New Mother Nature" y de "American Woman", en la que todos los miembros de la banda comparten créditos. Kurt Winter fue elevado en 2017. En julio de 2013, la Oficina Postal de Canadá imprimió una estampilla en honor a The Guess Who.
