The Bachman-Turner Overdrive and Guess Who founder feels like he's found a new lease of life at the age of 70, and can't wait to release the as-yet untitled work. It features drummer Dale Anne Brendon and bassist Anna Ruddick - and also includes a guest spot from Joe Bonamassa, with others guitarists to be named in due course.

Bachman tells Classic Rock Magazine: "I was in Ontario watching the live premiere of Tommy with Pete Townshend. He says to me, 'The drummer's f***ing incredible - she sounds like Keith Moon!' We met Dale after the show and she's really, really incredible.
"Anna plays in a couple of bands in Toronto. She loves 60s and 70s rock, and she plays like Jack Bruce and John Entwistle.
