-Our Intro Song "Feel the Love" From Alex's band
open.spotify.com/album/4Dao8y... - Фільми й анімація
Supertramp vocals + “insert band” = REO Speedwagon vocals
Complete this equation in the comments pls we need help.
For anybody who noticed my goof, Boston’s debut dropped in 76’ not 78’ don’t roast me 😩🤣
- Andy
38 Special? Anyway they are good too
Supertramp + Boston
The ultimate middle Illinois band: not Chicago, Corn fields! (SO much a midwest accent.) I heard these guys non-stop in the St. Louis area. (A lot of Head East as well, but not as much.) This and Riding the Storm out were staple radio rockers. Then they got a little poppier.
Supertramp Vocals + Styx band = REO Speedwagon
Foreigner?
It's amazing to me that, almost 50 years later, this song still gives me a refreshing feeling of new adventures and good-times ahead.
Yes, hats off to the producer (sorry I don't know who it is). No flashy gimmicks or overproduction, just captured the sound of the musicians.
One of the most high energy songs I know. Love the dueling guitars.
Yes, it does. ❤
Gary Richrath was a beast on the guitar.
Great Les Paul tone
Gypsy Woman's Passion...Sophisticated Lady.
Golden country live version. Must
REO was never the same after he left. Great live band still? Yes. Transcendent? No.
Gary was a very underrated guitar player ..
"Back on the road again" and "Riding the Storm out" are absolutely necessary
Yes, but the live, Kevin Kronin version of "Riding the Storm Out!"
Bruce Hall (bass) does lead vocals on “Back on the Road Again”. Great voice and more of a rocking tune. You’ll love the guitar!
Bangers. Same for roll with the changes
Summertime, the 70s, beer, sunshine, this is literally the soundtrack of my teens.
Same here! Couldn't agree more. Weren't we the lucky ones, we got to listen to such great music all through the 70's
Now it's a terrible😢🌎....maybe things will get a lil better when Trump gets back in there!!🎉🎉🎉
Whenever I hear this I’m back in my Jordache jeans, cowl neck sweater and feathering my hair and back in high school all over again.
Yes yes.....that was definitely the look back then, I bet you were lovely 😋😎
The Farrah Fawcett do!
Yup, I was not out of hs long, starting to date my hubby!
Tube tops and feather earrings!
My favorite REO song ever. I never get sick of it!!
Same
AMEN
@@kolbee911 Atheist.. But I agree!
Same. Second favorite is the live version of "Keep Pushin."
🫶🏼
Gary Richrath laying down some of the tastiest guitar licks of all time. RIP
This song is 50 years old!!!! You got to admit, us old fuckers knew how to rock!!!!
yes we did!!
Damn Skippy bro !!!! 😂
46🙂
Dang tootin', we did! Still do!
Riding the Storm Out, still.❤
A favorite comment I saw on another UA-cam page regarding this song: "I don't play "Roll With The Changes" that often, but when I do, the whole neighborhood hears it." 🤣🤣🤣
The seventies was so chock full of incredible hits that when this song was released it was just another Tuesday in 1978. Another beautiful, perfect Tuesday!
Indeed. Well said. We were so incredibly fortunate.
Fucking Tuesday. 🎶🎤🎧🎸🥁You’re my tribe.
I was music history, it will never happen again.
Gary Richrath......one of the most underrated guitarists of the era..........and when the audience is with him he absolutely smokes live......
Ultimate driving down the highway, top down, sun shining and singing at the top of your lungs song. Love it!
On many of my old road trip mixed tapes!
I loved being a teenager in the 70's.
This is the best song in the history of songs! Thank y'all for not bashing something that I Iove so much.
Grew up 20 miles from where REO was THE bar band, in Champaign, IL. I must have seen REO 100 times. Beer, slices of pizza and Richrath on guitar about 5 feet from me. The best.
I was born and raised in St. Louis mo, the Midwest was the birthing spot of some really great band, REO, Kansas, Mamas Pride, Ozark Mountain daredevils, Fn stroke;( and many more, including more than a few solo acts.
Jealous! First concert I saw in 79. But not close up. Hahaha
@@laurarominger2073 ......fun years.
To me, R.E.O. is one of THE definitive sounds of the late '70s and early '80s. Their music was everywhere and hearing it takes me right back.
“157 Riverside Avenue (live)” by REO Speedwagon is a BANGER! More rock than pop! From their double live album “You Get What You Play For.”
I used to play the crap out of that album. Don't know what ever happened to it, but I need to DL it, if only to hear Flying Turkey Trot.
@@Maydoggie Sadly, many online versions are missing “Gary’s Guitar Solo” and their absolutely rockin’ version of Chuck Berry’s “Little Queenie.” Those two songs were sacrificed to fit the album on 1 CD, but many online versions sadly have not restored them. Unforgivable.
@@Maydoggie ahh yes...The Flying Turkey Trot"...definitely! 🔥
Yes a BANGER album - I still have the vinyl !
@@HeyfordF I actually prefer the 157 Riverside live version on Decade of Rock n Roll. Both are great though
For me, it's the organ solo and the following guitar solo that make this whole song. Love it!
"GOLDEN COUNTRY" is a Must!!!!
Trust me, I'm a Old Stoner ...
😉😎✌️👏🎸🎵💯🔥
GOTTA DO THE LIVE VERSION!!
Absolutely, the live version. Gary Richrath's guitar solo is top notch. May he RIP.
Ridin the storm out also
Only thing I expect from an old stoner is to forget what he's talking about halfway through a story. At least that's what I do
My thoughts exactly!
Those power chords of Gary richrath just never get old!
No doubt they just come in with a "Bonnnnggg" Good n heavy
The back end feels like you're in the coolest church you'll ever be in. Preach on REO!
This is S tier for me, all the way! Next do “Ridin’ the Storm Out”.
Great song. Forgot all about it. Well i guess it was around 50 yrs ago
Yes but...DO THE LIVE VERSION!!!
Yes, live only!
A rocking song. The lead fills were magnificent. Richrath was an elite guitarist. RIP.
As great as Gary Richrath was in the studio, he was a total beast and absolute joy live.
What was great was so many bands were better live than in the studio. Not anymore!
Gary Richrath was a great guitarist. RIP
I saw Journey, Styx, and REO Speedwagon together. Musical Overload
Top of the line song from the 70's. Nice to see it is still being recognized as such almost 50 years later.
Yeah the 70s do age well!!!! 😎
I can only hope that mine do half as well!!!😎
Can’t believe it’s been 50 years.
Best REO song ever! It’s a personal anthem for ALL and rocks out to the max, buddy!
REO are masters of the dramatic pause. Alan Gratzer is the unsung hero of REO Speedwagon. Everybody loves Gary, but if you ever pay attention to Alan, he is a monster!
Agreed👍💯 he has always been one of my fav drummer esp on "you get what you play for"🤟
💯 percent
Great banger. You guys need to hit up “Take It On The Run” next. Great guitar solo by the late great Gary Richrath on this song.
“ Riding the storm out” another banger from REO !
Seen them two times, and each time they played with Styx. These guys are all energy.
Yeah, saw those guys in '11 iirc down at Orange Beach, AL. .38 special opened, then REO, capped of with Styx!
This song is such classic REO! Saw them live several times in the 70s and early 80s. They were SO good live and those Gary Richrath guitar solos were SO, SO, SO good. Sad to know he is no longer with us.
He died??? I didn't know that - boy that makes me sad. I'm getting old, all my favorite teenage bands are loosing members, Rush is a good example when Neal Peart died, and Glen Frye from the Eagles.
@@luckylisa5496 I'm getting older too and it's so sad when we lose a musician who means so much to us. It's easy to forget that they are aging at the same rate we are.
@luckylisa5496 Yes, quite a few years ago (2015). Underrated guitarist because of how poppy REO became. But early REO was a ROCK band with lots of great songs. Very similar in that regard as Styx.
@@WhizzingFish12 Agreed - early REO was quite a bit different than their High Infidelity album which sounded more like pop
@@lauriemartin490Yes. 1 out of every 3 boomers are gone.
The cadence when every verse starts on this song just gets me every time!
You found their best song next to RIDING THE STORM OUT. Glad to be here.
Live version is a BANGER. I don't usually recommend a live version, but this one is great!
@@slcs369Correct. The live version is better and a different groove.
@@slcs369My favorite is from their live performance on SoundStage.
That look of pure joy when the guitar kicks in at 5:32. We've all been there. It's about the time you really realize just how epic this song is.
This song and "Take it on the Run" vie for my fav REO song. Authentic bangers.
Roll with the Changes is nothing short of a freight train of rock'n'roll goodness.
I have for many years considered the live version of this song to be pretty much the ultimate rock and roll song. It just rocks.
After those 2 REO cuts, it's time for "Ridin' the Storm Out," the live version.
Finally you got around to their epic feel good rocker! Still gives me goosebumps all these years later.
Richrath fills, slides and power chords...dang! My favorite guitarist of that era with so much energy.
This song is in my top ten of all time. I can't think of a better high energy rock song ever. Love every aspect of this song. Never get tired of hearing it.
LIVE GOLDEN country. Just do it! The guitar is insane.
I love the way Alex makes those facial expressions !!
Looks like he is in Pain or Pissed Off. 😆
Truth !!! Haha ....it's the "rock face"
to me he always looks like he's pinching a loaf after eating a lot of whole grains
It's called "stank face" and it is very common amongst bass players
As a child born in 1969 in Rural Illinois I was always so proud of what I call Illinois Rock…Chicago, Styx, REO, Cheap Trick and Survivor were mostly composed of Illinois raised kids. I don’t imagine there are too many other quintets of groups who were contemporaries from a geographic region who produced so much great music.
Cheap Trick was out of Rockford, REO was a Champaign/Urbana band and I know people who had Styx play at their prom 😁
also Aliota Haynes and Jeremiah, and Head East!
Head East!!!! Haven't heard that name in a long while!!! I am going to Amazon Music after this to look up some long forgotten tunes!! 😎
You might look for music from Moon 7 Times, they formed at UIUC in the 1990s is my understanding. I don’t know if they were originally from Illinois, but worth checking out.
Styx played their first concert at my HS In Oak Park, Il! @@annewoodard6803
I love how Gary holds the note then drops into the chorus, it's like falling off a cliff.
😮 great thing about REO each player truly shines.
Gary Ritchrath is a BEAST of a guitarist
The midwest produced so many memorable bands and songs
From their live album: "Golden Country" & "157 Riverside Avenue". Both insane examples of just how masterful Gary Richrath was.
This song is not complicated. It is all about positive energy and being totally relatable. It lifts you up from beginning to end. An all time classic
The song was a reflection on the turmoil the band was going through. Kevin Cronin was in the band at first, and then he was out of the band, and then he was back in the band. He was like: just keep on rolling, man, just keep on rolling
The last time I saw REO, Kevin, the lead singer, brought his mom out on stage and sang to her. They *are* so down to earth--like RUSH
"Don't Let Him Go" is another banger with great drum work. 🔥
I commented on the “Time To Fly” video that you guys should hit this one next, I didn’t think it would be this quick! Great vid!
They did Time for me to fly 2 weeks ago, that’s the break up song they referenced
Same!
you can tune a piano but ya can't tuna fish! iconic
My favorite album title of all time
Like all great songs this song gets better an better the louder you play it.
I know folks that just love their ballads, but their rocking tunes really pack a punch:)
Gary Richrath had a real knack for finding great tones and riffs to match the songs, and this one is surely one of his finest works! I love the way his guitar volume swells in with just the right amount of feedback and distortion… and multi tracked solo is phenomenal. He combined his Les Paul and overdriven Marshalls with the softer vocals and sounds of the rest of the band and together they invented the power ballad (“Keep on Loving You”).
I've been riding the storm out with REO since the early 70's.
Gary Richrath's guitar was REO in my opinion. RIP Gary 🙏
Like other kids, when I was a teenager in the late 1970s, I got into arguments/debates with my mom, who said that rock' n roll was just noise and that it wasn't actual music. I made her listen to this song, and she had a complete change of heart. After hearing all of the instruments, like the piano and organ, she agreed that it was music-good music. 45 years later, she and I still talk about that.
This used to be a song that made me check my speedometer when I was driving. When this was on the next thing I knew I was driving 80 miles per hour. Pure adrenaline when I was 18, way back in the day. Plus, the song is so positive in nature.
"You Can Tune a Piano, but You Can’t Tuna Fish" and "High Infidelity" are two of the best album names ever. The music contained within each of them is pretty damn good too!
I was a teenager when this came out - during the course of my life - whenever I was on the brink of a great new adventure - I'd play this song for a solid week. I trotted it out a dozen times in my life - when I turned some pages. If you can get past the music - the lyrics pack the punch - but together - they are a great combination of high energy and high expectations of a bright new future. This song is an old great friend.
This is a music sweet spot. Indicative of the time- music we knew we needed…
Hands down my favorite REO Speedwagon song. Awesome lead guitar - gets me hyped every time I hear it!
Hands down one of my favorite songs of all time. I'm always a huge fan of songs that are able to put a lot of positivity and energy into their sound. Even if the topic is something dark or serious. ESPECIALLY when it's dark or serious. To me being able to sing a song about hardships, and do it defiantly, with joy in your voice, is the ultimate expression of "fuck you, you won't break me" in music.
"Get What You Play For" Live album
Great Band. Gary Richrath RIP. They performed a benefit concert for tornado victims in the area. Richrath rejoined the band for the concert, couple of years later he got sick and passed away. Saw them in concert, full of energy upbeat from beginning to end. They are a fun upbeat group, they have their share of ballads, but songs like Riding the Storm Out (LIVE VERSION), 157 Riverside Ave. Just a fun concert to go to.
Thank you guys for NOT STOPPING the song throughout. Letting it play continuous and uninterrupted as it was intended.... I can't watch anyone that stops the song or talks over it. Interrups the flow!
To really hear how amazing Garys guitar work can be, you need to check out 'Golden Country', '157 Riverside Avenue' and 'Riding the Storm Out'
and Like You Do
Now that you are into REO, you need to do an album review of "You Get What You Play For" Live. One of the most rocking live albums ever.
A memorable song from my teenage years. Haven't heard it in like, 40 years. Great song!
Now that, my friends, is Rock and Fuckin' Roll!!!!!! I saw them twice in the old days and sat (really stood) within ten feet of Gary Richrath both times. He never failed to deliver a full 100%. Amazing showman and could play his ass off. R.I.P., Gary.
When thinking about all time guitar solos, this would be one I would probably forget about. Gary Richrath was a great guitarist, and this is a criminally underrated solo.
Golden Country; Riding the Storm Out, great songs we used to rock.
First concert. First boyfriend. 1979. Blown away. REO has so many good songs but as an almost 60 year old now this song means the most. Change is hard. Change always happens. But lord knows I’ve fought it all my life. Always a song I knew I needed to learn from. Gary’s guitar. Kevin’s unique vocals. And yes drums are awesome and don’t like keyboards a lot but they fit perfectly here. Good memories of when I was young and blown away by the whole concert experience
REO puts the roll in rock and roll!!
Love, love that you're hitting REO! Hoping you'll make it to Golden Country. If memory serves it was released in the 70's but the message still rings so true for today. That's a sad fact! Great reaction guys, please enjoy the rest they gifted to us long ago. ☮️ ❤️ 🎶 🎸 🎶
The lyrics sound like they were written in 2024, with the world teetering on the edge.
Absolutely must be the live version
@@valelavidavivir5842 Absolutely agree! Time didn't stand still for sure and yet nothings been done, no solutions in sight......😒
You should do the live version of Golden Country. It will show you the range that this band had and it is so compelling. The audience response is great.
I knew the two of you would like this song. This is one of my favorite REO songs! The entire song is full of energy; you can't help but move to this song. My favorite part of the song is the keyboard solo, and also how the start of the guitar solo slides right into the end of the keyboard solo. Next on your list of REO songs should be, "Back On the Road Again."
One of my favorite REO songs. Now how about “Don’t Let Him Go”- a high energy banger from them.
Hell yeah!!
One of my favorite reo songs! Take it on the run is also amazing
Yes we could just go on and on come and take it on the run baby .. nice ballad.
All those killer riffs and rhythms are being played by the Gary Richrath. Such an underrated guitar player.
CHILLS. Each and every time.
One of the best ever road trip jams!
Going to a live performance/ concert and watching these guys , what an experience.
Speaking of REO, you guys still need to hit the live version of Ridin' the Storm Out!
One of the greatest songs of all fucking time 🔥🙏🏽
Great tune! Amazing band! Reminds me of the early 80’s. What a Good time we had!😅
Alan Gratzer never gets the credit he deserves for his drumming.
REO, Boston, Journey, Rush, Styx, Loverboy, .38 special, Triumph, Night Ranger, Eddie Money....jr/ high school sock hops were freaking amazing!!
Great list! Lets not forget Foreigner!
@@themusicboxx8419 yes- my bad...Foreigner is awesome,!!
My fave REO jam! Love ‘em! 😊
Another great band from Illinois! REO, Styx, Chicago!
This is definitely my favorite REO song. So uplifting!
I'm so glad you didn't pick the radio edit. Great guitar, great keys, great lyrics. Great song!!!
Golden country for their live album - you get what you play for.
One of my favorite bands. They just keep going, touring every year.
