Subject: Who's Colin Arthur?

A bit off topic here, but does anyone have any info on a guy named Colin Arthur? Apparently he has a cd out called "Livin' On Dreams" with Donnie McDougal, Garry Peterson and Randy Bachman on it. I'm surprised I haven't heard of it before. Thanks.

He sang with the Randy Bachman band and has been said to have a style simular to Burton's. I do believe that Donnie McDougal and Randy sat in on his recording. Rocksteady will probably pop in and give you a rave review of Colin- I think he did an interview or somrthing with him.Anyway, he was quite impressed, along with a few others.

I'll tell you who he is... Colin is from Vancouver area and has played with Randy Bachman since the early 1990s. I believe he played in the Any Road tour (I have a bootleg from then of course...). Colin is a multi-talented vocalist, keyboardist, and songwriter. He appears as Colin Wiebe on the Bob's Garage CD that Randy put out a few years ago. 2 years ago, Randy produced Colin's first solo effort and also wrote and played. In addition, Colin is a close friend of Donnie McDougall and Donnie plays an important roll on the CD as well. Garry Peterson was flown in to play drums. There is no mistaking the distince Guess Who influence that is part of Colin's music. Although he has his own style, there is no denying the GW influence. Colin will be the first to tell you he is a dedicated GW fan as well. Colin serves up most of the lead vocals on the GW tunes that Randy includes in his live shows. I strongly recommend the CD Livin On Dreams. GW fans should not be disappointed in this. Any one interested in acquiring this can contact me directly.

Colin's CD was one of the best albums I got last year,
some songs sound very much like Guess Who, some nice
surprises like the one part where Garry revisites the drum start to GW's No Time. He also plays and sings on the
"Randy Bachman songbook" CD, which has Takin Care of Business done as Takin Care of Christmas.
