The Guess Who has now been at it for 50 years. Starting in 1960 as The Silvertones, they have gone through more than 40 lineup changes, and there is still a Guess Who touring today. But in 1969-70, they were maybe the best singles band on the planet, with 8 US top 20 hits in a row. Those 8 are the first 8 tracks here. After guitarist Randy Bachman left in 1970, the hits started to dry up, and Burton Cummings called the band quits (albeit temporarily) in 1975. This album covers the period from 1968-74.

After track 9, the selection gets really spotty. "Guns, Guns, Guns" is pretty good, and "Clap For The Wolfman" is worthwhile for how catchy and weird it is. The rest of the later tracks suffer from continuous personell changes and the loss of Bachman. A better choice is The Best Of The Guess Who, released in 1971, which sticks to the better earlier material, and includes the terrific "Bus Rider". (There are more Guess Who compilations than there are albums the band actually went into the studio to record themselves).

The band name came from a single they released in 1965, a cover of "Shakin' All Over". The band name was excluded from the packaging, with only "Guess Who?" on the cover. Speculation ran wild that it had been recorded in a basement in Liverpool by at least one Beatle and one Stone, and it sent the band over the top.
