Back in May 1970, Randy Bachman left the Guess Who after getting into a disagreement with his bandmates. He'd been with the group in its various incarnations for 10 years and was invited to join by its founder, Chad Allan. Interestingly, at the time of Randy's departure, Chad had already been gone for four years, leaving shortly after the arrival of Burton Cummings, and the two teamed up to form Brave Belt in 1971. That group eventually morphed into Bachman-Turner Overdrive, but, before they broke nationwide, Chad left again. In his new article for the Strange Brew, writer Scott G. Shea examines Chad Allan's story, how he softly started a rock revolution in Canada and why he left before each band broke internationally. I hope you'll make some time to have Scott G. Shea, a leading music historian and author of the best-selling book, “All the Leaves Are Brown: How the Mamas & the Papas Came Together and Broke Apart,” on your program to discuss the not only the story of Chad Allan, but the history of the Guess Who and BTO, the incredible music they made and how revolutionary they were. The Guess Who was particularly unique in that they found a place on both the Top 40 AM band and the more progressive album rock stations on the FM side. Theirs is a fascinating story of friendship, luck, breakups, reunions and happenstance.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/arroe-collins-unplugged-totally-uncut--994165/support.

(S4 Ep22)  Cream - Disreali Gears  (Reaction Records) Released November 2, 1967, Recorded May 11-15 (1967) Released in November 1967, Disraeli Gears marked a pivotal moment in Cream's evolution from a blues-based trio to psychedelic rock pioneers. Recorded in just three and a half days at Atlantic Studios in New York, the album blends surreal lyrics, experimental sounds, and distorted guitar tones into a cohesive and groundbreaking work. Produced by Felix Pappalardi (from Mountain), the record features standout tracks like “Sunshine of Your Love,” with its iconic bass riff, and “Tales of Brave Ulysses,” one of the first songs to feature a wah-wah pedal. The album was a commercial breakthrough, reaching No. 5 in the UK and No. 4 in the U.S., eventually selling over 6.8 million copies worldwide. Its vibrant, psychedelic cover art by Martin Sharp became as iconic as the music itself. Tracks like “Dance the Night Away” and “SWLABR” highlighted the band's willingness to experiment, while “Outside Woman Blues” and “Take It Back” maintained their blues roots. The synergy of Eric Clapton's innovative guitar work, Jack Bruce's powerful vocals and bass, and Ginger Baker's inventive drumming made Disraeli Gears a defining album of the era. Its legacy is a cornerstone of psychedelic rock and a testament to Cream's lasting impact on modern music.Signature Song "Strange Brew."  "Sunshine of Your Love," Tales of Brave UlyssesFull Album YouTube Spotify Playlist YouTube  Playlist
