Power in the Music is the fourteenth and final studio album by the Canadian rock band The Guess Who to feature Burton Cummings on lead vocals and band leader. The album was released in remastered form by the Iconoclassic label including two bonus tracks.
The track "Rosanne" (#55 in Canada ) was apparently written about the one time girlfriend of Burton's very good friend Gary "Big Daddy" MacLean.
