RIP Gary Richrath
Yes!
Now you've heard it, you really should go watch this man perform this song live...RIP Gary Richrath. In the 70's we had AOR (album oriented radio) and this song was on it alot.
"no static at all..." 🌟
I was 5 the first time I heard this in 76, I was instantly transported to images of revolution! 😂 I'm betting this wouldn't be playing on today's "radio"! 👍
KING BISCUIT FLOUR HOUR.
I remember reading years ago, about a festival where all the guitar gods were that day, and Gary stole the show, and they all knew it.
This was on the radio back in the day! Gary Richrath was the real deal on guitar. RIP Gary. Kansas City has bragging rights to portions of this live album were recorded at Memorial Hall on Halloween back in the mid '70's! This album was huge not only for this song but many others. I have some found memories of this album playing in the background back then, but a gentleman never tells:)
Allen...don't remember this on the radio .. couldn't have been a big hit.
Honestly this and LIVE BULLET were amazing live performances
I agree with everything you said about Gary RIP & the album. We here in St. Louis share your bragging rights. They were at The Arena, that was a great concert.
It's Combination Of Guitar And Hammond Organ
Hat's Off To Great Gary Richrath And Neal Doughty Two Of 3 Original Founding Members.
R.I.P. Gary Farewell Neal Hope You Enjoy Retirement.
REO Music Has Always Been A Big Part Of My Life.
Man, I haven't heard Gary's guitar solo in years. That is how you do it. Golden County is one of the best. Thanks Asia & BJ!
Seen them in concert a few times and they always brought the heat. Richrath is the most underrated guitarist of all time. Golden Country Is my favorite song by them and yes that is saying something because they had many great songs.
THis album is such an Iconic masterpiece.
I was fortunate to see them on this very tour in 76.
Gary Richrath isOne of the Greatest Guitarist I've Ever Heard
Well said
Want more REO guitar? Try 157 Riverside Avenue, it's also on their live album.
I was a disc jockey on a major market radio station from 1983 -1998, and we played this song. We didn't care about song length back then when it came to rock music. If it was good, we played it!
The first time I heard this it was playing on the Himalayan Express ride at the county fair. I was 16. Me and a friend of mine sat on the ground outside that ride and listened to all of this album. I went and bought it the next day. Thanks for playing it!!
The Himalayan always played the best songs!
Hey Asia and BJ! REO Speedwagon was a powerhouse rock and roll band in the 70's and Gary Richrath was an amazing guitarist!You should check out 157 Riverside Avenue next or any of their live performances. Much love from SETX ✌️ ☮️ 🇺🇸 🎸 🎶 🎵
They've reacted to "157 Riverside Avenue" last year, you should check it out. They've also reacted to "Ridin' the storm out" from the Live album!
@kevinminne1460 Thanks!
Gary's flying turkey trot! 💯🔥
One of the best live albums of all time!!!!! Gary was the GOAT!!!!
Asia: "Oh he shredded it, the guitar probably stopped working after that" Best line of the video!!!
I've been waiting for someone to react to this song and Asia and BJ never disappoint. Gary Richrath was self taught and the result is a very unique style and sound that is very difficult to replicate. The solo in this song showcases his talent very well. One thing I would recommend is listening to it again and focus on Gregg Philbin's bass line. It's just as crazy. Sadly, neither of these two legends are still with us.
Gary had a recognizable, unique style of playing that was dependent on his use of certain phrases, riffs, and "trickery."
The more you listen to him, the more you learn to anticipate where his playing will take you, while at other times, he would throw you a curve, and take you somewhere else.
He was a remarkable player who did not receive all the accolades he deserved, and it broke my heart to see him deteriorating physically as he aged. He was one of the guitarists I wanted to be, but never could have been in a million years.
Their best song by far!
I am totally in agreement with this statement.
Gary loved playing his guitar and sharing his music and the musical talent of all members was awesome.
What a introduction to you two to the most underrated guitar player of all time. The late Gary Ritchrath
"Ain't nobody talks with their guitar the way Gary does..."
This was recorded in St. Louis and Boston opened the show. After Boston was done they had to beg people for quiet to start the recording and it took a while because they tore the roof off the place! Just an incredible experience.
Gary Richrath was a guitar GOD! I am so happy you've discovered his guitar playing. Sadly, alcoholism sidelined his career and eventually gave him such stomach failure he died. In the 1970's, we had album rock stations. The D J's would play whole sides of albums, so we did hear this on the radio. ❤
Gary Richrath is my guitar hero. I play guitar to this day because of him.
He used a wha wha pedal like no one else.
thanks you guys! I love seeing people react to music that moved me and shaped my life.
One of my favorite albums and songs growing up!! Lyrics still rings true today. RIP Gary.
No one better playing the guitar than Gary saw them and he’s perfect with it 🎸
REO at its finest. Criminally underrated guitar fills and solos. Sadly, the pop fans of the later REO never went back to hear what I call the real REO Speedwagon.
Those REO days were a blast!!
My favorite REO song of all time.
Great song! It was recorded in Indianapolis on Halloween (you would have heard him say “Y’all have a happy Halloween!” If you had played the whole track) - my wife was at that show as an innocent 16 year old!
That's old school af. Probably my favorite REO song.
my favorite reo song. gary richrath was an amazing guitarist. rip, gary.
Gary made that guitar talk.
RIP Gary! Damn drugs took so many of us over the years. Thanks be to God, I was a fortunate one to survive. Rock on REO!
They rocked in the 70's ! Then they went to the power ballads in the 80's.
This was actually on the radio a lot back in the day!
GARY was absolutely amazing
Gary Richrath was a beast! Saw them live back in the day and they rocked! Anything on this live album is worth reacting to.
💜 Glad you were able to hear and react to this song!! 😊💜🎶
I gotta say it warms my heart to see that the younger generation is keeping this music alive so happy to be passing the torch on to you guys thanks so much you guys are amazing and ROCK ON!!!!!!
Old R E O straight BAD ASS
Never heard REO sound like this before.
This whole live album "You Get What You Play For" is incendiary!
Saw them live many times growing up in central Illinois. They always put on a great show. Good old Midwestern 70's rock. Check out the live version of 157 Riverside Avenue. Just nuts.
Me too! This was my first real concert - In Evansville, IN.
Gary Ritchrath was a bonafide rocker. Early Speedwagon were kind of a secret of hard rock fans of the time.
Don’t forget Roll With The Changes!
This is peak REO in my opinion. ✌
I haven't heard this in years, Gary got Asia making stank face 😁
This song is needed now more than ever.
REO Speedwagon was phenomenal in concert, as were most bands back then, they were real artists. But, they did play it on the radio.
It's not selected puppets that create change for the good of the people. It's the people who stand up to them!
It's a shame Gary was one of the most underrated guitar Slayers of his time rip Gary
Top tier for certain. This whole "You Get What You Play For" album is excellent, not a bad tune, or guitar solo, on it! It is amazing to know the same stuff of forty-six plus years ago is still going on today. Nothing changed.
It's Gary on the guitar 💯🔥🤘🎸 So Great,they did put it on the radio 🔥💯🤘🎸 one guitar, that's Gary ❤ Love them you could see it live🎧
Last Track Lighting Is A Favorite.
Gary Richrath Was Amazing 😊
Just love to hear Richrath rip and wail on that guitar. Guy was a unique talent. They were also one of the best live bands around.
Seen reo in concert many of times
Gary Richrath is one of the most underrated guitar players ever.
One of the best solos ever
won tickets to this tour...won the tickets on KZOK seattle....GREAT show...back before they started writing songs for 14 year old girls...riding the storm out got a lot of play too
It's so good to see you guys again. Yeah, this was on the radio a bunch as people have said. And it was quite daring for the time. But this life performance has become iconic; it's just so compelling.
Another live one that is fantastic and yet the studio recording actually is absolutely incredible, but it has a lot of the live Dynamics and a lot of answer back and call and Echo between the backing vocals in the league, especially near the end, also a fan-favorite, also a hit, Keep On Rolling.
this is one of those songs that DJ's would put on when they needed a bathroom break, and it was played on the radio, it was different back then.
ONE OF MY FAVORITE REO JAMS!💯👍
Definitely played on the radio
Also RIP Greg Philbin who played bass on this album. He was the original bassist for REO and was I think the best groove bass player that REO ever had!
Damn, i'm just getting into these reaction videos. I grew up in East Peoria, Il. My neighbor was Eunice Ritchrath. Garys mother. My mom grew up & was best friends with his sister Sherry. Eunice was my babysitter. She was amazing & so proud of Gary. Her living room was full of gold & platinum records. Only met Gary a few times when he was in town, but he was super nice. He's the reason i started playing guitar. Very underrated! I think great mothers make great sons! She was great! I didn't have great father figures growing up, but i had some amazing women. Eunice Richrath is on top of that list. I miss them! Awesome reaction to a great band!!
Believe it or not, this song was on the radio! Radio used to be so much better than today's version. Even back in the 80's and 90's this was played on a regular basis on radio that featured rock music. It's hard to play REO and NOT play this song. This one and Riding the Storm Out are among their best, Keep the Fire Burning being another. I still hear this song played on occasion on classic rock radio stations. If you liked this song you will like the others I mentioned as well.
Roll With The Changes, Ridin' the Storm Out are two more to check out.
Best band on the planet ❤ ❤
There are not a lot of songs where I can remember the first time I ever heard it, but I do remember the first time I heard Golden Country. We were skipping school and we were at a friend's house. This album had just come out, and I was higher than a kite. I actually think it was on an old high fi stereo, but back then it sounded great and it was cranked up. I became an instant fan.
Try their song-take it on the run, don’t let him go, in you letter. So many great songs
Ah yes, thank you you two.
It's amazing how this song has transcended time. The message of this song is very much pertananent still today.
Think about this before 1996 they had no auto tune,bands back they played on pure talent!
We would go crazy when they sang this song! Back then we could go right up to the stage and interact with the band. One of my favs from REO!! ☮️ ❤️ 🎶 🎸 🎶
This is a really good live version of "Golden Country" but my favorite older progressive REO song is called "Like you do" that is one of their best and most popular songs from them back then. By the way REO only had one guitar player back then and it was Gary Richrath he was one of the most underrated guitar players of all time.
FM rock stations played the heck out of it and some still do play it.
They have so many great tunes the next one you need to listen to is roll with the changes
fun fact this group was from my hometown little town outside of Peoria IL same place of Richard Pryor..my wife's aunt was in school with cpl of the band members when their were just a garage band....
Gary Richrath... I put him in my top 10 guitarists ever... EVER! (maybe top 5)
Agreed! 👍 For me Jimmy Page,RIik Emmett,Ace, Richrath may be in my top 5 now n I've been hearing this song since 1977.
Gary Richrath is a steely-eyed rockin' machine
Encore , just encore .
Ya know I'm glad all music isn't the same for theese reasons
It's not about better or worse it's about what touches you or digs deep down .
I like the studio version better and yes, this music made people love each other more
REO was huge my senior year in high school (1977), one of my favorites.
48 years later And still as relevant as E V E R! 🤨💯❤️
I ain't heard this tune in probably 35 years! First time hearing the lyrics! Thanks Asia and BJ! You da best!
Not is Gary Richrath a great guitarist, but his tone on that Gibson Les Paul was out of this world.
They were my first concert 1978 Chicago Amphitheater. Gary's guitar needed a cigarette after that solo.
when the song came out initially (1972) 'Nam was ongoing...yea, you tend to forget how great Gary was... sheeesh!
Album oriented radio would play this ZETA4 in Miami always played this type of music in the 70s
Gary grew up 8 miles from me ..probably seen them 12 times..back when tickets were 4 dollars.
Thanks! Love seeing you admiring what is classic rock! I grew up with this music, 60 yrs old now! Last REO concert I went to was 1985!!!!
I loved this video. Watching your reactions to this great song brought tears to my eyes. Gary Richrath is my biggest guitar hero. He grew up in my neck of the woods, and I went to school with Gary's son, Eric. Gary wrote this song in large part in protest to the war in Vietnam. Gary wrote a lot of REO's biggest songs. Such an underrated guitar player and song writer. Thank you for choosing this song. Your reactions made my day.
I’m from East Peoria Illinois hometown of Gary richrath this song was always on the local rock station rock 106
there is actually a video version of this performance. you should check it out if you want to see gary ripping on the guitar.
Naah that’s a sync with 1979 video footage
@@rutex09 that is true, but the audio is taken from the live album, and they did a decent job of syncing it up to the video. some of it is not a good match - especially the keyboard footage. still like it a lot more than a picture of the album cover.
@@realitybytez Yes they did a great job, if you do a UA-cam search of “REO Sreedwagon 1979” with the typo and go to 28:30 is the untampered video with 1979 audio
@@rutex09 thank you for this. but the time you refer to is roll with the changes.
@@realitybytez “REO Sreedwagon 1979” is the name of the video.
157 Riverside Avenue. You won’t be disappointed….
Gary Richrath..wow!!
A great deep cut by REO.
Asia & BJ, you’ll love their “Can’t Fight The Feeling”!!
For Me Asia And BJ Gary Richrath Ranks Top 5 Best Guitar Players Ever.
You must hear 157 Riverside Avenue, off of that same album, where singers voice battles the guitar! 🔥🎸
Fuck yes, their best song! But that whole album kicks ass, every song! 🔥
They played the studio version for years in Detroit.
Hey, it's cool to see a black couple enjoying the white bread midwestern Rock that I grew up with there. Good job, I listen to all your "your" stuff too and love it! Prince did a good job combining it.
