1081 Bachman-Turner Overdrive (BTO) - Let It Ride

Having one of those mornings without any motivation, so I put some BTO on. Their music, along with the music of most other Canadian Hard Rock bands always get the blood moving. I usually play Bachman-Turner Overdrive II all the way through without skipping a song, but this is my favourite track on the album.
Actually the biggest hit off of the album is, of course, Takin' Care of Business. That song was originally written by Randy Bachman when he was with The Guess Who under the title White Collar Worker, however it got rejected and later recorded as a BTO song. I used to like that track quite a bit, but after years of playing those three chords over and over in bars and clubs countless times it will probably take a few more years until I can listen to it the same way again.

Here is the studio version on YouTube.
