Before you read the Wiki review, let me tell you that I absolutely disagree. This is an underrated album at the time of its release, but, like the best wine, with time it grew and much! At bird flight, I see at least 4 magnificent hits:
“Life Still Goes On (I’m Lonely)”, one of the best BTO songs of all time. “Shotgun Rider”, “Just For You”, “My Wheels Will not Turn”, etc.
Do you agree with me?Fran Solo, MMXVI
Freeways is the sixth studio album by Canadian rock band Bachman–Turner Overdrive, released in 1977. It was the last album that Randy Bachman would be a part of with BTO until seven years later when a “reunion” Bachman-Turner Overdrive studio album was made and released in 1984. This is also the last studio album to be made with the band’s classic and most successful Not Fragile line up. It was the first BTO studio album to become a commercial failure, featuring the first BTO single that did not chart (“My Wheels Won’t Turn”). Randy Bachman wrote every song besides “Life Still Goes On”, while only two of the album’s eight songs featured Fred Turner as the lead vocalist.
Many of BTO’s core fans did not like the album, as it was not the heavy, guitar driven rock n’ roll that BTO was known for.[2] Turner was reportedly so unhappy with this album that he wouldn’t allow a straight-on picture of himself to be used on the cover, saying he felt like a “side man.” Years later, Randy would agree that the Freeways album was rushed to the studio, and that the band should have taken some down time, allowing them to develop more song ideas. He did however, mention “Down Down”, “Shotgun Rider”, and “My Wheels Won’t Turn” as songs that were worthy of inclusion on any BTO album, singling out the Duane Allman-esque guitar solo on “My Wheels Won’t Turn” as one of Blair Thornton’s finest moments on record.
This album was one of the last albums to reach the charts by any formation of BTO. The 8-track tape version of this album has the distinction of being one of the few 8-tracks that is arranged exactly like the album, with no song breaks.wikipedia.org
