Tim Bachman of BTO passed at 71

Guitarist from Bachman Turner Overdrive was added to the growing list of lost musicians last Friday. He had been fighting cancer and succumbed just a few days ago April 28th. BTO was a big influence on my rock tastes in music and it saddens me to see so many of my generation passing. Not that they were still making music, but that an era that contributed to my love for music is closing each year.

Did not look like that to a judge.

If minor is 16 or older, those cases often dropped no biggie. Other than that never cared about him or BTO.

It's a time for classic rock musicians to go one by one or together. In fact Rock N Roll is pretty much dead.

BTO was a Very good band in their day , the sex misconduct has little to do with BTO accomplishments ,you have a senile pervert for a president, let’s leave it at that ,let the man RIP,  Thankyou BTO for the great memories Not Fragile was their biggest commercial success, but BTO with let it ride was equally good 👍

"In fact Rock N Roll is pretty much dead."

And what are we left with?

A bunch of flaccid, soulless, money-grubbing, fame-seeking plagiarists.

Ever wonder why there are so many "oldies" radio stations?
