The Best of The Guess Who Volume II

The Best of The Guess Who Volume II is the fifth compilation album by the Canadian group The Guess Who. It was originally released by RCA Records in 1973, and contains recordings made between 1970 and 1973.

Release history
In addition to the usual two-channel stereo version the album was also released by RCA in a four-channel quadraphonic version on LP record and 8-track tape in 1974. The quad LP release used the Quadradisc system. The album peaked at number 186 on the Billboard 200 in January 1974. In 1979, Pickwick Records reissued the album under license from RCA. This budget version omits the songs "Sour Suite" and "Guns, Guns, Guns". (When RCA in Canada reissued this album on cassette in 1985, they used the Pickwick track listing.) RCA first issued the album on compact disc in 1992. In 2019, the album was reissued in the UK by Dutton Vocalion on the Super Audio CD format. The disc also contains the 1972 album ''Rockin'''. The Dutton Vocalion release contains the complete stereo and quad versions of both albums. ==Track listing==
