      I just attended my 40th REO show this past July at the NY State Fair. Free concert! I saw them first in 1973; their first venture outside their home turf. Rochester, NY. They opened for Canned Heat, and thus began a love affair between rock & roll fans in Rochester and REO Speedwagon. Over the years I have caught them in many a venue in many a city. I love Rock & Roll (speaking of which, I once saw Joan Jett and the Blackhearts open for REO), and my heart will always belong to REO Speedwagon.

    Kevin wasn't the vocalist on the debut album. Their debut just hit, and they opened for Grand Fuck Railroad. When the played "157 Riverside Ave" I became a Gary Richrath, REO fan for life. Grand Funk was on their "Mark , Don and Mel" tour. After that REO changed direction. They went from killer to phenomenal!! I think I saw them at Louisville Gardens.: RIP Gary!!

    REO Speedwagon was my first concert as a junior in high school in southern Illinois (with them being an Illinois band). It was soon after their album "Hi Infidelity" came out and the album was #1 on the album charts. The crowd was very into it and REO did not disappoint. It was an amazing show, including this song.

This song and album was released December 23, 1973. By the way the original album was a studio album it wasn't live. This was their 3rd album. The live album was "You Get What You Play For" the singer in both versions was Kevin Cronin. The song was written by Gary Richrath. Thank you for the reaction to this song Asia and BJ.

    Funny Story! Early 90’s went to a festival in Iowa called steamboat days. Off the Mississippi River and Illinois border. Thur - Saturday event. Friday night was REO. Stormy night. They came on at 8! First song was riding the storm out. Soon as they finished, pouring rain started. It rained for weeks solid. And that was the beginning of the great 90’s floods in Midwest America. 😉✌🏾

    Gary Richrath was no doubt a top notch guitar player, but the thing that set him apart was nobody sounded like him. Totally unique style, and the sound and the way he attacked the song was just mind blowing, studio or live.
    REO was a Midwest band, I grew up not far from where they started out. Those were the 'crusin' the strip' days and REO was meat and potatoes for that scene. When their album Hi Fidelity hit in '81, it just blew the roof off everything. Everybody had it, everyone was playing it. What awesome times.
    Check out Golden Country by them. One of my very favorites.

    The story goes is that when they were in Colorado here they were going to do concert and the band hiked the flatirons in Boulder and it started snowing and I think they had to be rescued I'm not sure but they rode the storm out they wrote the song and played it that afternoon I guess at the concert. As The story goes

    When I was a young man listening to great stuff like this I just assumed it would last forever . But over time have learned everything is transitory . Your couch . Your Looks . Your health and your life . Enjoy your day in the sun Asia and Bj . Hope you have many years .

    Probably my all-time favorite of theirs!!! I wish you were watching the official video of this from their '81 tour instead of just the live audio. The audience really gets them going and it's IMO the best live version from any of their concerts. ua-cam.com/video/GVFgEBq0EKM/v-deo.html BJ, it's all about Gary Richrath and his guitar. He was one of the best and so underrated.
    This original version of the song released on the album is NOT this version. Kevin Cronin started the album but left the band over creative differences before the album was finished. This had a slower, more country sound (doesn't even sound like any song from the REO most of us know and love more like a cover band, honestly) and the singer was Mike Murphy. It didn't gain in popularity until after Kevin came back to the band and this version emerged during their concerts.

      I would like to see them react to The Rodeo Song by Gary Lee and Showdown (original artists in 1980. All others are covers) just to watch one heller reaction once they start hearing the lyrics 😄 🤣
