Since 1965, the Guess Who (née Chad Allan and the Expressions; see “Shakin’ All Over”) had exactly zero success in America. But they scored some hits in Canada, and were also the house band for their hometown Winnipeg segments of a weekday CBC-TV music show titled “Let’s Go.” This somewhat schmaltzy ballad written by Randy Bachman and newer member Burton Cummings was out of character for the group, but propelled them into the US and Canadian Top 10. Randy, a guitarist, came up with the piano intro but played some unexpected notes. It still worked.
