Bachman Turner Overdrive - "Four Wheel Drive" - Live, 1988

Bands who made the biggest impact for the longest time in classic rock are those who managed to stand out from the crowd, to be unique, to be instantly identifiable. It could be the vocals, the lyrics, one or more standout instruments, or some mixture of those (plus some undefinable chemical reaction) that made us sit up and take notice. It took things like, say, a song that featured a guitar solo played with a drumstick, and a drum solo played with none.

The band was Bachman Turner Overdrive, and I dare you to sit still during this performance from BTO's 1988 reunion tour, of "Four Wheel Drive". (Go on. Try. It can't be done.)
