Song 255 (The Guess Who--"Shakin’ All Over")

I have been listening to a lot of The Guess Who's music lately and without a pick for today I decided to choose one of their songs. The song sounds very similar to a lot of the beat group music of the time, however the guitar riff along with the vocals give the song distinction; it is quite a fun song to listen to.
This was one of their first hits and was a cover originally performed by Johnny Kid & the Pirates. The song was recorded before Burton Cummings was with The Guess Who and in fact the band was officially called: "Chad Allen and the Expressions." However, their record company had a promotion to drum up attention to the band by hiding their name and instead saying "Guess Who?"; this was to originally make listeners think that it was a major group playing under a pseudonym. At the time of this recording they went by both names and later they abandoned the name "Chad Allen and the Expressions" after Chad Allen left the band and the rest is music history.
