Bachman Turner Overkill?

Okay, so maybe you haven’t been waiting twenty years for this, but never-the-less, they are back.

Overdriveless, Randy Bachman and Fred Turner are making their return.

Honestly, on first thought, I sometimes wish some of these old guys would just go away, but after listening to a free download of “Rock and Roll Is The Only Way Out,” a song off their upcoming album, I am not really sure what to make of it.

Great stuff? Not.

Fun? Well, yes, actually it kind of is.

I have to admit by thirty seconds into this thing, I couldn’t help but grin. Although, it is the same old predictable sound, there is no doubt they do sound “just like kids when school gets out.”

The upcoming album is due out in September 2010, but some tour dates come first. In fact, according to their website: “Bachman & Turner will be kicking off their world debut in June 2010 at the Sweden Rock Festival alongside some of their contemporaries including Aerosmith, Guns n’ Roses and Billy Idol.”
