The drummer has the perfect sounding beat for this song also with volume...this only one of two times i have heard this sound..It is perfect and just gets it just that much better...
Another great song....One of my favorite songs when Henry Small was singing with Burton Dragin them down the line ???? or something along that line...can't seem to find it anywhere.....
Everytime I hear the Guess who it takes me back to my early teens, gettin high, trippin on cid, keggers, hippies, hott chicks bangin tons of beave oh those were the days my friend.........
Burton Cummings is such an underrated and underappreciated musician, shit like this dosen't even have 10,000 views, and you go to smoke miley cyrus or jonas borthers shit and its got millions.
@ReDRuM868, he's only underrated to the people who don't know anything about music... people who listen to miley suckdicks and jonas trench or whatever the fuck they are now... the only reason those bands do well is because theyre all still virgins like the however many million 12 year old girls listen to them... those bands are only famous because of marketing... just pointing out the obvious lol...
Yeah this song is sick i heard it on the radio a while ago and i've been trying to find it forever, this is the best i could do, I Dont think theres a studio version on the internet, At least i cant find it
by 'original studio lp' - are you talking the original guess who version, or burton's rehash on dream of a child? i've got pretty clean versions of both (one's cd). so i could upload them if you want.
Well, I'm Ace Holleran, and it's not me on drums. It can't be Garry because he rejoined BC in 79. I think it's a guy named Ron Mercier, who was on the band right before me.
Anthony is dead on with the rest of the band. Sorry, bankeh, but this is the exact band I played with.
My first gig with Burton was in May of 78 on Midnight Special. There was a video of "American Woman" from this MS (with Randy) but it's been taken down.

Good band: Ian Gardiner on bass, Jack Daniels on guitar, Henry Small on vocals, Jimmy Phillips on keyboards.
Not sure who the drummer is - Is it Ace Hollaran or Garry Peterson?
