NOT FRAGILE is the third studio album by Canadian rock band Bachman–Turner Overdrive (BTO), released in September 1974. It proved to be the group's most popular album (not counting compilations), and is the only BTO album to have reached No. 1 on the US Pop Album charts. The album marked a slight change in direction as the band's already heavy sound turned more directly toward metal. Thunderous bass and drums, strong vocals and howling dual-guitar solos by Randy Bachman and Blair Thornton are prominently featured on many of the tracks. The riffs on this album are heavy and plentiful, bristling with raw, chomping guitar power. Most popular release from rotund Canadian rockers Bachman-Turner Overdrive, NOT FRAGILE hits like an 18-wheeler overloaded with a freight of Moosehead and fatback bacon, it's massive slabs of dense Paleolithic riffage and floorboard stomping rhythms beating IQ points outta your head with each thunderous track. Sporting two distinct frontmen in C.F. Turner, who works the mic like a riot squad commander works a bullhorn, and the comparatively sweeter vocals of Randy Bachman, the high wattage content on NOT FRAGILE includes rib-eye rockers "Sledgehammer," "Second Hand" and dual manifestos to thud-ly livin', "Rock Is My Life And This Is My Song" and "Not Fragile," balanced with melodic sunny day cruisers like "Givin' It All Away," "Roll On Down The Highway," and stutterin' staple "You Ain't Seen Nothing Yet," tracks that stick to the eardrums like gravy stains on that shirt you wore last Thanksgiving. No foolin', hard rollin' stuff here that sounds best as you drown the work week in suds and amplifier buzz.
PERSONNEL: Randy Bachman – vocals, guitars; Blair Thornton – guitars, backing vocals; C.F. Turner – vocals, bass guitar; Robbie Bachman – drums, percussion; Frank Trowbridge – slide guitar.
After gaining some recognition from the success of the band's previous album, Bachman-Turner Overdrive got around to recording NOT FRAGILE. Not only had one of the three Bachman brothers (Tim, the rhythm guitarist) left the band to BTO's advantage, but Randy Bachman and C.F. Turner had clearly grown musically. To the album's benefit, most of the material on NOT FRAGILE are the band's much-liked rock anthems, ranging from the hyper-distorted title track, through the famous but far more timid song "You Ain't Seen Nothing Yet." Indeed, for hard rock fanatics, it doesn't come much better than on NOT FRAGILE. Randy's electrifying lead guitar is here more raucous than ever before, as are his rowdy vocals (particularly noticeable on the predictable, but fun "Sledgehammer"). The man steals the show on NOT FRAGILE through his extensive and often astounding guitar solos. Generally, though, Bachman-Turner Overdrive are at their prime as a whole, both in songwriting and playing terms. As regards the mixing, it's hard to find fault with this release. The drums are clear but not so prominent that they dominate the recording, while the guitars, along with the bass, are kept rigidly in their place. NOT FRAGILE is one of the finest arena rock albums of the era, featuring all the hallmarks of what makes a classic release in the genre. Randy's impressive guitar work and typically boisterous vocals complement the overall framework of the album superbly, as do the crunchy rhythm guitars. This release will astound fans of the genre and band, while those thoroughly against stadium rock may find something to convert their views.
