The Guess Who Weatfield Soul

The Guess Who's most successful LP, reaching number nine in America (and charting for more than a year), has held up well and was as close to a defining album-length statement as the original group ever made. It's easy to forget that until "American Woman," the Guess Who's hits had been confined to softer, ballad-style numbers — that song (which originated as a spontaneous on-stage jam) highlighted by Randy Bachman's highly articulated fuzz-tone guitar, a relentless beat, and Burton Cummings moving into Robert Plant territory on the lead vocal, transformed their image.

The Guess Who's greatest hits….in the audiophile format…..a truly fun music listening experience that makes these amazing recordings truly shine once again. You have all the staples like American Woman, Hand Me Down World, but then you get the power ballads like These Eyes, Laughing and of course non stop rockers like No Time. Randy Bachman and Burton Cummings were an unstoppable team and it shows even now more than ever.

Canned Wheat is the fifth studio album by Canadian rock band the Guess Who, released in September 1969. It peaked at number 91 on the Billboard Pop Albums chart. Two of the band's hits were taken from the album: "Laughing" and "Undun". The album also includes the original version of "No Time" which would later be re-recorded for their American Woman album and released as a single. The album is regarded as a rock classic.

Canadian rock trailblazers The Guess Who are spotlighted on a disc that unites arguably their two finest latter-era albums, 1973’s #10 and 1974’s Road Food.

Produced by Jack Richardson, So Long, Bannatyne was recorded by the Guess Who in a two-week stint in June of 1971. With guitarists Kurt Winter and Greg Leskiw on board, the album opened well with “Rain Dance” and the perceptive “She Might Have Been a Nice Girl,” but then fell into a kind of disjointed, dispirited, and rather exhausted-sounding mishmash of underdeveloped songs. . The album was reissued in the digital era with the March 1971 single “Albert Flasher” b/w “Broken” included as bonus tracks, which lifted things considerably, allowing the sequence to end as strongly as it begins. In retrospect, So Long, Bannatyne wasn’t a disaster, but it didn’t move the band forward either, and it still seems, all these years later, like an underrealized release that’s short on memorable songs.

One of Canada's most enduring bands, the Guess Who rose to fame in their homeland in the 1960s and were major international hitmakers in the '70s, starting out as a hard-hitting garage-y combo (as heard on their first hit, "Shakin' All Over") and maturing into a thoughtful rock band who were as comfortable with tough, guitar-based rockers like "American Woman" and heartfelt, melodic numbers like "These Eyes." Though the band found its greatest fame with lead singer and pianist Burton Cummings and guitarist Randy Bachman, through the 1970s they continued to enjoy success after Bachman's departure with 1970's Share the Land and 1972's Rockin'.

Wheatfield Soul is the fourth studio album by the Canadian rock band the Guess Who, released in March 1969.
