Blazin Your Own Trail Again. Please get this one in the live set
Great album "You Can Tune a Piano' ...love all the songs on this album, But I especially like the none hits from this album "Sing To Me' and "Say You Love Me or Say Goodnight'...the later which I actually had the pleasure to hear them sing in concert at Anaheim Stadium along with approx. 60,000 fans in 1977, as they opening for Foreigner, Ted Nugent and Lynyrd Skynyrd. It was the 2nd song they sang after opening with "(I Believe) Our Time is Gonna Come. Became an instant fan after that show. Can't wait to see REO for the 34th time in Prescott Valley, AZ on Nov 13, 2020, with Night Ranger opening.
You are awesome 👏 thank you 🙏 for storytelling & music 🎵 awesome
I am 58 , rocked out at your concerts summers of 78-79 growing up in Michigan and saw you at Red Rocks a few years ago and now I am in your livening room.... Far out
I saw Gary playing a gig in Grand Junction Colorado about I guess 25 years ago solo , I had a strange experience watching him , he played at Mesa college with about 100 people in attending. I wanted to somehow reach out to him but I felt that I am just a fan who loved his music and it wouldn’t be appropriate... I wish I did ,I felt like I was watching a broken star who had no idea how much joy and love he and REO gave to me and so many.
Just listened to this awesome version of Blazin’...... again ....... absolutely fantastic. I would love to hear this done live again. Beautiful song.
My favorite memories in life are watching reo play at the mn state fair in the early 2000's.
awesome! Tell Bruce I'm giving him a shout out this week on 98.9 WMMO Orlando--had no idea he lived here! I'm on the radio there weeknights 7p-midnight!
Take care, Cronin family
God bless.
Thank you for sharing one of my favorites! I enjoy the story behind it. Blazing your own trail again has help me more than once. Life is precious, this is a song that encourages hope, look ahead, don't let darkness bring you down!
I have really enjoyed these shows!
Bruce F. Hall!!!! You are a "BAD ASS" , Dude!! Keep it up!! What a performance!
Hello Kevin and you are the best !

Thank you Kevin for doing this , it means a lot.
I've been on an REO kick the last month, and have been in a funk. Today listened to Blazin' Your Own Trail Again, and it lifted my spirits. Stumbled upon this tonight. Thanks, guys! Bruce, that was great! Kevin, thank God we got through all that crazy stay at home crap! Guys, wish you guys would pop in to Columbus Ohio in the next year so I can come hear yas.
Loved that version of Back on the Road Again, always nice to see the Brewster performing, he's a great musician and singer. I have to agree with Kevin when he says Bruce and his voice blend well. Take a listen to Girl With a Heart of Gold and I Need Someone Tonight. Loving this Camp Cronin stuff, thanks KC and GOD BLESS
Look forward to these every week. Very entertaining and enlightening. Thank you, Kevin.
One greatest story show, tell Bruce Hall one nice song. More listen to song in concert, nice learn about artist how make own music, Love song Back On Road Again. Song just did early. Of Tuna Fish album. Always buy cds and got shirt I order. Just love old classic hits songs. Next week love how came up song Lucky For You , use play on my old record player back my high school days 1980-1983. Still enjoy more today. Thank You. Every time listen REO Speedwagon songs on way to school take short cut. Those were good old days. Music 1970s Thank You.
love your songs and the back story of your songs
Love Anything you do. Thanks for all of the wonderful music.
Im from Southern Illinois so ive been a fan forever. Seen you in concert from Illinois and Missouri to California. I caught the Tuna Fish Tour in Kansas City at Royals Stadium. The powers that be tried to keep REO from playing in the rain . You guys came out anyway and said 'Thanks for riding the storm out' and the place went crazy! Thanks for all the memories. 🤘
Super acoustic version of Like You Do, very well done.. I have always dug the Live Version as well as the album it came on... Thank You ... 👍😁
LOVE that version Bruce!!!!
awesome: BLAZIN YOUR OWN TRAIL AGAIN!! Great to hear that!!!
Love that version of Back on the Road Again. Now I want to hear it that way when you come to Washington later this year!
🥀Beautiful Amazing Song's you Guy's are so Amazing. Thank you both for posting this video I love every minute of it🥀✌🥀☝️
Thanks to Bruce, too. Great episode.
Bruce looks great and sounds fantastic! Great song, great singer. We’d love to get a new Stoner Guitars bass in his hands when REO is able to get back on the road again.
Thanks for all wonderful music.

Stoner Guitars
This is such a cool song especially because the bass is the lead! REO SPEEDWAGON!!!
Bruce: Fantastic rendering of Back on the Road. I had always wanted a few more Bruce-sung songs sprinkled in the subsequent REO records
Kevin thanks so much for playing Blazing your own trail again. It was always my favorite back in high school long ago haha. Haven't heard you perform it often.
That was awesome, Bruce.
Blazin' is one of my favorites. I, like others, love the Tuna Fish album. Great to see Bruce and loved the version of Back On The Road, another favorite of mine.
I must say I really dig this version of 'Back On The Road Again' as, as Bruce said, it does make the lyrics sound more emotionally driven. Also, SO good to hear 'Blazin', KC. Great stuff as always!
I’ve noticed that this is a really a Facebook thing but just happens to be streamed to UA-cam at the same time. All the Q&A Kevin and Holly did on the last one was all from Facebook. Which is a shame for all the fans who watch this on UA-cam and don’t use Facebook. Come on KC say hello to all your loyal fans in the UK.
Bruce, LOVE this version. The REO rendition is still the classic one, but this one is so good, it would probably sound fine as a ska song. :-D
Do you remember a Chicago/Champaign area band called Fawn from the early '70s? They had great harmonies and did quite a few CS&N covers. I was in a band at Illinois Institute of Technology and we once had an offer to open a benefit with 5 bands headlined by REO and Styx. We turned it down because we just weren't at the level of the other bands. Our band was called Drippo and The Gumbdrops.
It gonna happen.
Thankful for being just old enough to get ...tuna fish.
Thanks Gary.
Wooh Bruce
Bruce grit. Ready for an Eastwood western
Blazin’ is truly a masterpiece!!! I personally think it is superior to the more successful singles. I LOVE IT sir!!!! The Tunafish album changed my life LITERALLY forever! Made you my all time favorite Kevin!!!!
I want to see lay
me down and breakaway live
Great episode!
The acoustic versions are really good! Blazin' Your Own Trail is one of my most favorite REO tunes. CD player is always cranked to the max for that one. Best catalog of songs around for classic rock bands is REO's! The BOTRA version Bruce did for this episode was super cool. The beard looks good too! It would be cool to see you guys bearded up for touring. Hearing from the rest of the guys in your episodes would be awesome! Also, some of the road crew. Hearing some funny stories of touring over the years involving the band and/or crew that you are willing to share would be so cool!
I can imagine this song playing when the self isolation is over
absolutely love that version of back on the road again - that was cool - need to work on putting some electric guitar with it and play that in concert
There are many beautiful songs you have, in the perfect world an average time concert would be at least 2 1/2 hours....
As a guitar player, I'm hearing notes/chords one normally misses in finished product. Gives me inspiration to try harder
Can we get Can’t Fight This Feeling soon? It’s my favorite song, I love it so much! Thanks Mr. Cronin for entertainment during quarantine.
He already did it on the episode with his daughter, Holly. Check it out!

Walter Jeffreys oh thanks, I watched but I guess I missed it.
Omg it’s going to just like that live one with the two of them! Yes
Heavens to Betsy, that was beautiful.
Well hell is it any wonder that Bruce was my first crush back in the day? All these years I’ve had no idea how dreamy BOTRA is. WOAH. This is wonderful guys. Thanks!!!
Bruce has a killer tone on that guitar he's finger picking on. What's the guitar he's using?
Kevin... Brewster... MAN! I just had an epiphany! Any chance you guys would consider a concert tour with a more Acoustic Edge. Listening to you guys play acoustic versions on here brought memories of the Eagles 95 Hell freezes over Hotel Cali intro. Id love to see you all do an acoustic "Chair Gathering" session tour. Any chance of it Kevin? Doesn't need to be all acoustic but maybe 50/50? We also loved it when Foreigner w/Kelly did there acoustic sessions. Awesome stuff!
Bruce doing his best Bob Seger -- love the version
improvise and adapt to overcome
If it premieres at 12 is it actually going to be live
I really enjoy watching Camp Cronin. Question, how much contact do yiu guys have with the former members of the band like Alan, Mike Murphy and Greg Philbin?
