Classic Live REO
There are very few live recordings that stand up well with the studio recordings, and this is my favorite live recording. I loved this album and had been looking for it on CD for a while. Golden Country and Riding the Storm Out are especially good. Great selection of REO songs. .


Great LIVE CD
I am a big fan of REO SPEEDWAGON starting back from 1971 all the way to . . well Id say 1990. Cant say Ive enjoyed their last 2 albums; Burning the Bridge(1996) and Find your Own Way Home(2007). . . thats neither here nor there because we are taking a trip back in time to 1977. . . the year of the LIVE album. . . the year of the speedwagon picking up speed. Kevin's back in the band for a second time and the new songs on COW(1976), while not surprisingly successful, are already brandished with hints of the AOR sound of REO in the 80's. The band has been laboring for 5 or 6 years polishing a solid fast rockabilly act and its evident EVERYWHERE on this album. . . let the good times roll. Listening to the album, you can almost feel the band on the cusp of fame and fortune. A band this good live deserves some recognition. "157 Riverside Avenue", "Lay Me Down", "Ridin the Storm Out","Keep Pushin", "Golden Country", "Music Man". . . GREAT solid songs. Gary Richrath still reigns supreme as a good hard rocking guitarist (remember this is pre VAN HALEN) with "The Flying Turkey Trot" and his awesome guitar solo. This live album payed off for the band and they would score a million sales the following year(1978) with the "TUNA" studio album. The 80's is another story so for now check out the 1977 REO LIVE album; a time when the band didnt have the huge hits or the huge fanbase YET and is dishing up some good ol' rock n roll. Enjoy!.


REMASTER this album!!


and put little queenie back on there!!. because it truly is awesome.


CAUTION ! ! ! .
I have been a BIG Reo fan since the mid 70s,and love the early stuff! I dont have time to B-S you with TRASH. . WATCH-OUT for sellers who are selling the OLD EPIC release as the 2008 edition. Many of them are! Some think the price is so cheap,that you wont return it! Mail the seller first,and ask if they will make sure it is NOT the old EPIC edition. . . . YOU WANT THE ADVERTISED PRODUCT! Then buy it. .


Always were a better live band than studio band
E. It has been years since I've listened to an R. O. album. Recently bought the CD (had the LP since it first came out, but haven't listened to in ages. ) This album reminded me of why I liked R. E. O. They were a great concert band - at least back in the 70's. This is R. E. O. in their prime.
