I used to like "Taking Care Of Business" (aka the Office Depot song) the best...but now I'm leaning towards "You Ain't Seen Nothin Yet."

I picked other: Sledgehammer 
and my other 2 favorites are Takin' Care Of Business and You Ain't Seen Nothing Yet
BTO was one of my favorite bands in the 70's and their music still rocks nicely today in the 00s

When posting my above reply, I thought that Roll on Down the Highway sounded familiar. So that covers my total knowledge on BTO.

Reached the same position as the 1975 hit.

Yes.  He left after the "American Woman" single release

"Other" for me.

"Hey You" (1975)

followed by

"Roll on Down the Highway" (1974)

;)

Roll On Down The Highway.

I was into BTO when I was in 9th grade. I never did get the chance to see them in concert.

'You Ain't Seen Nothin' Yet'

Although I do have a soft spot for 'Takin' Care Of Business'...I can relate to most of the first verse!  :P

And spookily, I do catch the 8:15 into the city!  :o

  From the list "You Ain't Seen Nothing Yet"...

  Would you believe BTO opened for Van Halen in 1986..?  They did, at least for that leg of the tour.  I was there.  At the Cow Palace.  Not some young, hungry rock and roll upstarts bursting their way onto the scene...

  Just BTO...
