Bachman–Turner Overdrive is the self-titled debut studio album by Canadian rock band Bachman–Turner Overdrive, released in 1973. It was originally to be titled Brave Belt III, following the Brave Belt II album, made by the previous line-up of the group, called Brave Belt.

The album did not produce a true hit single (“Blue Collar” reached #68 on the U.S. Billboard charts and #21 in Canada), but it was certified “Gold” by the RIAA in 1974, largely pulled up by strong sales of Bachman–Turner Overdrive’s next two albums (Bachman–Turner Overdrive II and Not Fragile). “Gimme Your Money Please” and “Little Gandy Dancer” were released on a double A-side single in Canada only. After the release of Bachman–Turner Overdrive II, this first album was often referred to as “BTO 1”.

Record World described “Gimme Your Money Please” as “a hard hitting rocker.”

The first BTO album without the participation of founding member Randy Bachman, Street Action was released in 1978 and marked the debut of a heavier sound from the band, prompted by the freedom afforded the members following Randy’s departure.

“When those two albums with Jim Clench came out, that was always the direction that we wanted to go in. If you look at the Blair Thornton, Robin Bachman and Fred Turner songs on the (earlier) BTO albums, that’s the same sound.”- Robbie Bachman, drummer

The final album by bto and the second with the late Jim clench who had replaced randy.title track, Jamaica and minor hit heartache are the standout tracks,there is also an early Bryan Adams song called Wasting time, but by this time bto were running out of steam.it’s ok but by no means a classic although you can never fault Fred turners vocals.for fans only. Rock and Roll Hell is about how music can trap an artist and leave him where he has no control over his or her career.
