What was it like to be in one of the most popular rock and roll bands of the mid-1970s? The members of Bachman Turner Overdrive (BTO)--Randy and Robbie Bachman, C. F. Turner and Blair "No Name in Name" Thornton--speak candidly to Martin Melhuish about their climb to success and life at the top. As he travels with the group they give him many intimate glimpses into life behind the scenes, their early days in Canada, Randy's split-up with the Guess Who after he co-wrote "American Woman" with Burton Cummings, his conversion to Mormonism, their on-the-road and private lifestyles, the crazy sexcapades and wacky hotel shaving cream fights with nubile, nude groupies, the creation of the band's best-selling singles and albums. Melhuish tells all this and more in this biography.

A fantastic find, and a beautiful copy of this book!
