Sweet, sweet R&R story... remember BTO?

Bachman-Turner, Overdrive was a definitive power during my teens. I found this sweet story of the return of Randy Bachman's long-lost guitar very inspiring, especially because of the global span.

 

Enjoy.

Reading through the story I remembered I used to have a vinyl disc they released under the band name Bravebelt...now I gotta go digging through my old collection and see if I still have it.

Randy was actually part of the Guess Who when the guitar was stolen 45 years ago in Toronto.

Pretty amazing story, would love to hear all the details of how it got to Tokyo. He wrote American Woman with that guitar.

Debatable, but both bands can claim victory in the recovery, me thinks 😉
