I’ve always been torn when it comes to the output of Randy Bachman – or at least the major output. I’ve always been a huge fan of The Guess Who. I’ve never liked Bachman Turner Overdrive all that much, though. So, I wasn’t sure what to expect from this album. It’s Randy Bachman’s new power trio, but with a number of notable guests. I’d say that it lands somewhere between BTO and the Guess Who. It’s definitely heavier. It’s more of jam sound in a lot of ways. There is (as one might guess with a power trio) a lot of Cream on display here. Overall, I like this a lot, but there are a couple songs that rather disappoint me.
