American Woman is the seventh album by the Canadian rock band The Guess Who, released in March 1970. It peaked at No. 9 on the Billboard Pop Albums charts. It stayed on the charts for more than a year and was their most successful release.
In addition to the title cut (the group's most successful song), this album also includes a re-make of "No Time", a song the group previously recorded for Canned Wheat—the new version is the one most familiar to listeners.
This was guitarist Randy Bachman's last finished album with the group until a reformation effort in 1983.
American Woman was re-mastered and released on CD by Buddah Records in 2000 and included a bonus track—"Got to Find Another Way". Also in 2000, Lenny Kravitz covered “American Woman” for which he won Best Male Rock Vocal Performance at the 42nd Grammy Awards.
All songs written and composed by Randy Bachman and Burton Cummings, except "American Woman" and "Humpty's Blues" (by the whole band) and "969" (by Randy Bachman).
Recorded: August 12, 1969 – November 16, 1969 at RCA Mid-America Recording Center, Studio B, Chicago, Illinois
