The Guess Who

Live Performance of 'American Woman' by The Guess Who on ABC In Concert

Venue: ABC Studio Location: New York, NY, United States Date: March 2, 1973

In March 1973, The Guess Who performed live on ABC In Concert, a notable event that showcased their continuing popularity during the early 1970s. This performance came shortly after the release of their hit album "Rockin'" in 1972, which featured popular tracks such as "Guns, Guns, Guns" and "Star Baby." By this time, the band was enjoying significant commercial success, largely due to the popularity of their iconic song "American Woman," which had reached the top of the charts in 1970 and solidified their status as a major rock group. Interestingly, despite the band's success, they were on the brink of lineup changes, as lead singer Burton Cummings would eventually leave the group in 1975. This live recording not only acts as a testament to The Guess Who's dynamic stage presence but also captures a critical period of transition for the band as they navigated the changing landscape of rock music.
