The Guess Who

On February 25, 1966, The Guess Who delivered an electrifying performance at the Winnipeg Arena, a pivotal moment in their early career. Just before this live recording, they released their album "Shakin' All Over," which marked a significant turning point for the band. Interestingly, this album showcased their ability to blend rock with a distinctly Canadian feel, featuring the title track that became a massive hit. By the time of this performance, they were gaining traction both locally and beyond, setting the stage for their future success. It's worth noting that Randy Bachman, one of the founding members, was instrumental in shaping their sound during this period. This concert not only captured their emerging artistry but also laid the groundwork for the iconic status they would achieve with subsequent albums like "Canned Wheat" and "American Woman."
