Fun fact about bootleg recordings:
"American Woman" was an improvisation that happened for the first time in concert while Randy Bachman was changing a broken string and stumbled on to the lick while re-tuning his guitar. The rest of the band came back on and they jammed it out completely off the cuff, including Burton Cummings making up the words as he went along. They noticed a kid in the audience had a tape recorder, and sought out the tape after the show.
For the record, I am disappointed this isn't about some kind of booze bootlegger as well.
