The Allan Handelman Show
For September 23rd, 2001

This week, the Allan Handelman Show keeps you up to date with the important war developments, however, as President Bush asked us all to do, we're getting back to business. For us that's Rock n' Roll!


Sunday night, Allan welcomes one of Rock n' Roll's greatest vocalists, Burton Cummings of The Guess Who. Cummings and the Guess Who brought you American Woman, No Time, Undun, Share The Land and many other classics. Rolling Stone calls The Guess Who "One of Rock's most consistently, fascinating maverick bands". They led the Canadian invasion of artists like Neil Young, Rush, Bryan Adams and Loverboy with some of the best music ever recorded. They laid the musical foundation, which led to Rock FM's dominance over "Top-40" radio. In 1969, just as American Woman became number one in the country, Randy Bachman left the band. Why? What happened? It's an amazing story.

Now, the original hit-making team of Cummings and Bachman is back as The Guess Who, touring for the first time in 30 years.

Call the show at 1-800-Rock-Talk (1-800-762-5825) to talk to Burton starting at 10PM. Canadian listeners can call at 704-570-9739.

You can find many of the The Guess Who's original RCA releases, as well as a couple of good box sets at any music store. However, just recently Buddha Records has re-issued some hard to find Guess Who CD's. They are digitally re-mastered and feature tracks that couldn't fit on the original vinyl releases. Also, Burton Cummings gives you song by song inside stories. They are awesome! Check them out here: Buddah Records

Also this week, Rodney Stich. He is the foremost authority on terrorism and aviation. He was a key inspector-investigator in the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) shortly after it was formed. Its formation was brought about by public outrage after a United Airlines DC-7 rammed into a TWA Lockheed Constellation over the Grand Canyon in the late 1950s.
