The Guess Who was a Canadian rock band, originating as The Guess Who? in 1966, and adopting the name The Guess Who in 1968. Formed as a garage rock band,[1] their best-known works are in the pop rock[2] and psychedelic rock[3] genres.

During that period they released eleven studio albums, all of which reached the charts in Canada and the United States; their 1970 album American Woman reached no. 1 in Canada and no. 9 in the United States, and five other albums reached the top ten in Canada. They also achieved five number one singles in Canada and two in the United States.

Notes

  1. The same album as Liberty, albeit with different artwork and track sequence.
  2. Early mispressed copies, though labelled "Tribute to Buddy Holly", played the track "I Just Didn't Have the Heart" on the A-side. Fewer than 100 copies of this mispressing are known to exist.
