The Guess Who. Uma das mais importantes bandas de rock do Canadá durante a década de 60, tem suas raízes no grupo Al And The Silverstones, formado em 1959, do qual saíram o cantor, Chad Allan e o guitarrista Randy Bachman para formar o Guess Who. Os outros integrantes eram Garry Peterson (bateria), Jim Kalle (baixo). Antes de ficarem famosos, Chad Allan saiu para fazer a faculdade e foi substituido por Burton Cummings, que tambem era tecladista e imitava o jeito de Jim Morrison.
Quatro anos de trabalho duro!Neste mês de maio fizemos quatro anos no ar. Continuamos trabalhando na divulgação deste maravilhoso instrumento, obrigado por participar da nossa história!
Song: Straighten Out (Cummings, Wallace) Artist: The Guess Who Album: Road Food Tabber: Nick Gray Email: [email protected] Tuning: Standard
One very simple song with a couple of interesting jazz chords. The song has a great jazz feel to it. My favorite from the Road Food album. The chords are complimenting the piano. Lyrics from http://www.ghg.net/bnsteiss/lyrics/lyricsmain.html
