3 unusual facts about Not Fragile


Blair Thornton

Thornton rejoined the "classic" Not Fragile line-up (Randy Bachman, Rob Bachman, and Fred Turner) in 1988 for a reunion tour.

As a songwriter, Thornton contributed two compositions to the Not Fragile album: "Givin' It All Away" and an instrumental called "Freewheelin'", still one of the favourite anthems of Not Fragile that also wound up as the B-side of the No. 1 hit "You Ain't Seen Nothing Yet".

The Company Band

A special digital-only single preceded the full-length CD, featuring the album track "It's A Confusing World" with an exclusive cover of Bachman–Turner Overdrive's "Not Fragile".
